Former Texas Congressman Ron Paul seeks to help NSA whistleblower Edward Snowden attain clemency and has launched a petition, “Demand Clemency for Edward Snowden,” on the Ron Paul channel.
“Edward Snowden shocked the world when he exposed the NSA’s illegal and abusive spying program. Instead of applauding him for his bravery and patriotism, the U.S. government labels Snowden a traitor,” the page states. “Join Ron Paul in demanding that Edward Snowden is granted clemency. Sign the Petition. Let’s bring Edward home before his amnesty in Russia expires on July 31, 2014.”
Ron Paul’s son, Rand, disagrees with this father on clemency for Snowden. “I don’t think Edward Snowden deserves the death penalty or life in prison. I think that’s inappropriate. And I think that’s why he fled, because that’s what he faced,” Rand told ABC in January. “I think the only way he’s coming home is if someone would offer him a fair trial with a reasonable sentence.”
You can find the petition “Demand Clemency for Edward Snowden” on Ron Paul’s website.
How could he believe anything he is told by this administration and President. I would not return until there gone.
If not for Snowden, we would never have Known about the NSA and its spying on everyone here in the USA, He should get a medal not persecution, Bo deserves the latter !!
Even if he is given it he would have to stay away. They will kill him. Giving him clemency will only make the other governments no longer help him. Hero he is but we can not protect him if he came back.
the world knows who the “traitors” are.
Hi, I do believe your blog could possibly be having browser
compatibility issues. When I look at your web
site in Safari, it looks fine however, if opening in I.E.,
it has some overlapping issues. I simply wanted to provide you with a quick heads up!
Besides that, fantastic website!
Clemency what a $#%&!@*ing joke the government just trying too get him back in the united states
remember this country don’t deal with tratiors or terriorist so whats the real story ron paul looking for a pat on the back from the white house if he gets snowden back
Snowden should be classed as a hero.
I think that’s a great idea .
Snowden is a “traitor” for telling the truth. Obama, Clinton, Holder, Reid, etc, are sociopathic liars, who betray their country every time they open their mouths. THEY are the traitors.
