According To YouGov Poll, Snowden Support Declining Among Americans

eldavojohn writes "A recent poll from the YouGov consisting of one thousand responses shows that Snowden's support among Americans has shifted. Now, according to the poll, more Americans think he did the wrong thing rather than the right thing when asked: 'Based on what you've heard, do think Snowden's leak of top-secret information about government surveillance programs to the media was the right thing to do or the wrong thing to do?' The results and breakdown are available online (PDF). Without getting into racial or political breakdowns, the results now show that 38% say he did the wrong thing, 33% say he did the right thing and 29% remain undecided about the results of his actions. Instead of charging the populace into action Snowden may be facing apathy at best and public disapproval at worst."

I have NO FUCKING IDEA why you just got down voted into oblivion, but then I realised that we're witnessing the very problem you just described is happening on this website, the fact that the dumb sheeple down modding insightful posts is tantamount to that.
