            I’m as progressive as it come. If you’re willing to break the law because you think it’s the right thing to do you should be willing to accept the consequences, not run off to a foreign enemy state. What he exposed would have stayed in the news far longer if he went to trial got convicted and people were rallying to have him freed. I don’t believe he did what he did for altruistic reasons. He’s no hero to me.
