Re: Edward Snowden support thread
I can't speak for the UK crowd but I think Americans are largely much more concerned with the comforts of life versus freedom. I have no doubt that most of my countrymen will sacrifice a tremendous amount (as if we haven't already) of freedom and privacy as long as they can get a big mac and play some game on their smart phone. Even fellow Libertarians are just a lot of talk. When it comes down to risking ones lively hood, freedom and possibly life very few people are willing to take a stand.
