There can be no better example of a human being making the difficult choice between what is right and what is easy than this young man. May America someday deserve a hero like Edward Snowden.
Edward Snowden is a true American hero. He needs to be defended by the people for whom he is making his sacrifice. To those out there mining this; you're welcome to my opinion. I live in a free country.
He seems like a reporter who is interested in the truth. Saying that you know where someone is is not disclosing their whereabouts. He merely answered the question honestly "yes I do know" and then asserted he would not disclose the whereabouts , but I am not going to share that with anybody.
Detroit is an American city. VERY American. The former heartland of American industry. What you are describing is gang violence, which has nothing to do with "multiculturalism" whatsoever. In fact, engaging in gun violence over disputed territory is EXTREMELY American.
Thats why people engage with the system politically and financially. Problems have to reach a certain threshold before people become violent. People engaging in political violence is a sign that the system itself has failed, and has either given too much power to those in charge, or not enough power to the people themselves to convince them that their problems can be solved peacefully.
Violence in any political system is due to the failures of that system to address and ameliorate the needs of the people. Violence BY the political system is a reaction to the unrest of the people, and the internal acknowledgement that they have no intention of changing the system to address the needs of the people.
So what we still need to have him in there I would like to see Julian Assange and Ralph Nader in our gov't also. I Sooo long for some transparency and some honesty These crooks are condemning us to hell
Dude, in the 20s these areas were dominated by Irish and Italian gangs. Italians might be somewhat new to the US at that time, but one has to admit that the Irish were one of the very first European groups that ever came to North America. There were Irish people among the signers of the Declaration of Independence.
🏆Glenn Greenwald, many thx for all your efforts to keep America on The Road back to Freedom & a government based on the US Constitution. We lost our Gov with The GW Bush Coup in 2000, but we will get our Freedom Back, one day! Until then, we must live in Terror & complete Horror, everyday!♠
I do not follow the trend on TH-cam. I am no dyed-in-the-wool, anti-Obama libertarian or Republican or a conspiracy nut. But, for the first time I've seen in my life ... a fundamental line has been crossed.
You could not be more wrong about black "assimilation." Hence, the tensions. As for the KKK, it has been riddled with government informants, demonstrating yet again the fact that multicultural societies are heavily surveilled.
There is an argument against putting "good" people in gov't simply because of the corruptive nature of all governments. It serves liberty better to keep decent safe, open and separate from government. When gov't fears people there is liberty.
Greenwald is an amazing speaker and Snowden a hero. Perhaps I am missing something in the puzzle why does the government want to see my email? How does this information help the corporations/government? I understand it helps google to sell advertising. I know this information gathering is NOT about terrorism or our security. Is it simply to repress the people further? If yes how does personal information repress the people?
"Lost your govt. in 2000." No, the Old Republic died in 1913 with the creation of the Federal Reserve system, 16th and 17th Amendments. Then came the New Deal and Great Society. Both parties play around the edges of that same system. If you think that the destruction of liberty (esp. privacy and private property rights) started in 2000, you need to find and read better historians.
Yes, and both of those groups conform to the reasoning i just gave. The KKK were members of a ruling class ideology that a) disproportionately held too much power, and b) were under threat of losing that power due to increasing Civil Rights for minorities. The Symbionese Liberation Army considered the current and increasing disproportionate incarceration of minorities (considering them political prisoners) to be an intolerable condition that could/would not be solved through legislation.
Multiculturalism is a specific sociopolitical policy about normalizing and preserving the cultural distinctiveness of multiple foreign ethnic groups, and does not apply to African-Americans. Black history is American history, they were successfully assimilated hundreds of years ago & retain very little cultural distinctiveness from their native lands. Italian Americans have retained more "multiculturalism" of their native homeland than black people have. Black culture is simply Southern culture.
"That's right...social welfare is insignificant benefit." Huh? You just contradicted yourself. You admit that when people are removed from the costs of their actions that they make different decisions, i.e. keep breeding and breeding even when they can't afford the offspring they have at present. "Million handed out in corporate welfare." Non-sequitor to what we are talking about. Corporate welfare does need to be ended, but it's a drop in the bucket compared to overall welfare state.
You will see what big corporations can do with the help of this NSA surveillance if you watch my videos. I still doubt you will fully understand the severity of the problem of collecting everyone's personal data.
(cont) but who is to blame is the American public and our silent support in allowing for these just massive buildup to our military industrial complex. It might be relatively harmless to us today, but tommorow it will only grow into more of a behemoth. But in every democracy whoever imperfect you always get the government you deserve, and if we let this stand unnoticed we to will have the government we deserve.
I don't disagree with you that what government doing is bad. However, US had problems, Has problems and Will have problems. Show me a country that doesn't. My point is one does not defect and spell his guts about securities of his/her country. Sorry, something telling me something wrong with this picture...He should be punished severly....
No, the country's founding stock was from both Europeans AND Africans, with more being from Africa than from Europe. And yet, the modern day descendents of those Africans worship European religions, speak a European language, wear European style clothes, and receive historically Eurocentric educations. Most white people can tell you exactly which European ethnic tribe they are from. How many black people know where in Africa their ancestors lived? Black culture begins, and ends, in America.
A white British man living in America is literally less assimilated into American culture than the average African-American. Piers Morgan is more alien and uncomfortable in American culture than say, Kanye West, who is quintessentially, almost comically and stereotypically "American". Jazz, R&B, hip-hop: these are all both extremely "black" and extremely "American" inventions. Anyone in the rest of the world would immediately recognize them as being "American". Black culture IS American culture.
Everyone shoud read Chris Hedges. He is not partisan at all instead he is principled. I mean I don't think I have heard him talk about Bush or Obama or any of the chatering nincomboobs. Read CHRIS HEDGES.
You dont understand what "multiculturalism" means. Multiculturalism isnt just "immigrants exist". Its a specific ideology. Gang violence in Detroit has nothing to do with that ideology. The only ideology behind gang violence is territorial control and acquisition of resources, forces that are common to all humans regardless of culture. Please go look up what "multiculturalism" is before we continue this discussion.
You mixing the categories! In this case where it said and how it said matters. Not all truths are equal and not all men created equal. Like I said we don't discuss our dirty loundry with rival country like China, etc. Think about it...
> Good. Then let's see the conservatives openly support Snowden, Manning and Assange, Do you not yet understand that the Democrat vs Republican thing is a facade? They both vote the same. They both side with the state in all issues like this. They both are agreed on almost every thing that actually impacts your life (but don't get to vote on). But they argue like rabid wolves over inconsequential issues like gay marriage. It is theatre. You have been had.
if you live in terror and fear,one day you must blow up and change that way of life to live in peace and harmony.but that feel its not just in USA its feel in rest of the world.sory for my bad english.peace from Serbia.
Again, please explain exactly what it has to do with multiculturalism. Or even just, i dont know, DEFINE what you think multiculturalism IS. You seem to just be repeating it over and over as some kind of catch all for "everything bad that happens"
Who brought on the surveillance state? Who started the war on drugs? Largely conservatives and.. more conservatives. We have people like Nixon and Reagan to thank for that. It's kind of humorous to see the outrage over PRISM, because it's been an open secret for decades (except, of course, what it was called which we now know).
They focus on what is really important... What beer is the best? Did you like michelle Obamas new dress? How can my tax get lower? Is my car better then my neighbours? This amendment and spy business is to complicated.
Yeah!
There can be no better example of a human being making the difficult choice between what is right and what is easy than this young man. May America someday deserve a hero like Edward Snowden.
Glenn Greenwald is an amazing public speaker and I'd follow him if he decided to start a revolution.
Glenn Greenwald, we stand with you
How dire is Democracy Now's financial situation? Are they not getting enough donations? I'm concerned. Does anyone know?
Edward Snowden is a true American hero. He needs to be defended by the people for whom he is making his sacrifice. To those out there mining this; you're welcome to my opinion. I live in a free country.
It is one feature.
He seems like a reporter who is interested in the truth. Saying that you know where someone is is not disclosing their whereabouts. He merely answered the question honestly "yes I do know" and then asserted he would not disclose the whereabouts , but I am not going to share that with anybody.
Edward Snowden has the balls of Steel!!!!! Let the US Supreme Court rule Patriot Act either constitution or un.
How so? In what specific way?
Is there a link between InQtel and these programs?
You are right, it means nothing. I wish it did though :(
And they were surveilled. Multicultural societies are heavily surveilled.
Or because they want control or because their interests clash.
Glenn is my hero
noooooooooooooooooooo!
You just proved my point about multiculturalism.
Detroit is an American city. VERY American. The former heartland of American industry. What you are describing is gang violence, which has nothing to do with "multiculturalism" whatsoever. In fact, engaging in gun violence over disputed territory is EXTREMELY American.
Yes, but it has nothing to do with gang violence in Detroit.

People engaging in political violence is a sign that the system itself has failed, and has either given too much power to those in charge, or not enough power to the people themselves to convince them that their problems can be solved peacefully.
Where can I download Edward Snowden's documents?
Violence in any political system is due to the failures of that system to address and ameliorate the needs of the people. Violence BY the political system is a reaction to the unrest of the people, and the internal acknowledgement that they have no intention of changing the system to address the needs of the people.
It is not enough to just identify this spying, but we must ask the question, WHO is doing this and why?
So what we still need to have him in there I would like to see Julian Assange and Ralph Nader in our gov't also. I Sooo long for some transparency and some honesty These crooks are condemning us to hell
What can i do?
Dude, in the 20s these areas were dominated by Irish and Italian gangs.

Don't bring assange into this. These people have nothing to do with assange.
Why had Russel Tice been ignored? Could Snowden be used as a distraction?
2013 Hero Award. He has Big Brass Balls
🏆Glenn Greenwald, many thx for all your efforts to keep America on The Road back to Freedom & a government based on the US

Canada has no such problems and is the most multi-cultural.
Please do not send drones to do signature strike in Hong Kong, we have 7 millions people here, there are women and children. Please do not murder us.

That is ahistorical. The reason is people are not interchangeable. Hence, repression is required.

Scotch-Irish. The big Irish Catholic immigration came later. One of my relatives was a signer, but he was of Puritan descent.
US rules! They will never get a kick. Snowden is a tartor....
you dont even know what a war criminal is

america is germany in the 30's and 40's.. but if america does it that's good, anyone else, that's bad.
At least Pol Pot thought so.
I so agree! i think the hardest part is convincing DUMB ppl of the truth. that is SOOOO fucking difficult sometimes.
You mixing the categories! In this case where it said and how it said matters. Not all truths are equal and not all men created equal.
