Risking your own life in service to the people - knowing that he would not be protected...knowing it could all be over - intense!!! I can't imagine the internal struggles, the lack of sleep, the fear - but his sense of morality was bigger than his own struggles and even his own survival (can we say we would do this?) Our politicians forgot how to serve the people (they serve now only profit and greed) and so a Patriot has risen up...will there be more? I hope so for all of us...break the Orwellian System - Break the New World Order!!!</p> </div> <div class="links"> <a class="up " href="#">↥twinkle</a> <a class="down " href="#">↧stinkle</a> <a class="reply" href="#">reply</a> <a class="permalink" href="/forum/first-television-interview-edward-snowden/#comment-1020646">permalink</a> </div> </div> <div class="replies"> </div> </div> <div class="item comment" id="comment-1020596"> <div class="content "> <div class="info"> <a class="collapse" href="#">[-]</a> <span class="karma">2</span> points by <span><a title="View GirlFriday's profile" class="user" href="/users/GirlFriday/">GirlFriday</a></span> (17435) <span class="published">10 years ago</span> </div> <div class="words"> <p>It highlights the dangers of privatized government functions.</p> <hr> <p>Yep.</p> <p>And ya, you can't come back Snowdon.
