The OP was about Snowden. My post was about lack of evidence. Clapper and Alexander are not part of those topics.

Snowden worked for a living. In my universe, that makes him a member HardTimes99 Jul 2013 #11

So anyone in management is automatically our enemy? randome Jul 2013 #18

Do you disagree that Snowden worked for his living (as opposed to living HardTimes99 Jul 2013 #20

Yeah, about that title. Snowden didn't do shit for anyone but himself. randome Jul 2013 #22

Yes or No: Is Snowden a worker? HardTimes99 Jul 2013 #24

He was a worker. Now he's a runner. randome Jul 2013 #25

OK, now we've established Snowden's relationship to HardTimes99 Jul 2013 #26

OK, I'm going to say that I think your tactics are a bit underhanded (without HardTimes99 Jul 2013 #37

I think you should "ignore" Randome. xtraxritical Jul 2013 #39

I'm only going by what Der Speigel says. However, you can't believe everything you read. randome Jul 2013 #43

Then the search for facts should take place sulphurdunn Jul 2013 #65

He certainly has national security secrets. randome Jul 2013 #72

He has denied revealing any state secrets sulphurdunn Jul 2013 #83

Nearly every criminal pleads 'Innocent'. He stole documents and he is wanted by the authorities. randome Jul 2013 #85

Several whistleblowers have testified that they could pull information on anyone's phone numbers. JDPriestly Jul 2013 #81

I can't give too much credence to Tice. randome Jul 2013 #84

That they collect the metadata is enough to permit them to tag anyone who dissens in any way. JDPriestly Jul 2013 #94

It's not likely that anyone at the installation in Hawaii could access the domestic metadata. bornskeptic Jul 2013 #121

The metadata collection has been ruled legal for decades. randome Jul 2013 #87

The courts have never considered this kind of mass collection of metadata including metadata JDPriestly Jul 2013 #93

Thanks! randome Jul 2013 #58

There should be no camps. sulphurdunn Jul 2013 #73

Who is hunting him? His passport was revoked. Harsh, right? randome Jul 2013 #75

The US had the plane sulphurdunn Jul 2013 #89

The Bolvian plane incident will never be clear enough to satisfy anyone. randome Jul 2013 #91

Again, what specific evidence do you need to be persuaded, and which claims does he not JDPriestly Jul 2013 #78

See my Post #81 for an explanation. The evidence he has given us is enough if you have the JDPriestly Jul 2013 #82

He isn't comparing labor to management. sulphurdunn Jul 2013 #63

Governed by a collective of individuals. randome Jul 2013 #74

I hope so too, but doubt it. sulphurdunn Jul 2013 #86

I don't know how to fix that, though. randome Jul 2013 #88

While I agree with you sulphurdunn Jul 2013 #62

While I'd like to fashion myself a member of the 'intelligentsia,' I too HardTimes99 Jul 2013 #90

'And he still has no evidence of his claims. ' markiv Jul 2013 #44

Waiting for the evidence. randome Jul 2013 #46

that's better nt markiv Jul 2013 #48

What constitutes evidence of his claims? sulphurdunn Jul 2013 #61

He claimed he could spy on anyone if he only had an email address. randome Jul 2013 #64

Then the truth should come out sulphurdunn Jul 2013 #67

His motive is to be a hero. I think it's obvious. randome Jul 2013 #79

That may be so, but sulphurdunn Jul 2013 #92

Not really. I need to get other stuff done. randome Jul 2013 #95

OK, thanks sulphurdunn Jul 2013 #98

What evidence do you need? Specifically, what evidence would you need to believe his claims? JDPriestly Jul 2013 #68
