I don't know if Snowden was a Russian operation, I don't think the facts are there for that. However, I do think Snowden committed treason by doing what he did, and so did this National Guardsman. It doesn't matter the reason or morale justification, breaking the law is still breaking the law. If you're going to call for the prosecution of Trump you can't in the next sentence say yeah but Snowden broke the law for the right reason so it's ok. That sort of hair-splitting is disingenuous.

What you're advocating for is blind obedience to authority.

People decide they break the law for the right reasons all the time. Do you not speed while driving?

No, because in here speeding tickets are based on a percentage of my income.

I can't afford to speed =)
