secretly spies on its own citizenry illegally and unconstitutionally?

Again, there are no laws that prevent the police from gathering information.

Nor does the constitution forbid citizens from giving the police legally obtained information if the police ask for it.

can you cite exactly what "military secrets" Snowden has "sold"?

He provided evidence of the US military's surveillance of Chinese government communications to Red China and provided them with a list of compromised IP addresses.

In return he received, at the very least, safe passage to Russia.

You fail to acknowledge the passage of 4th Amendment. Again. "Illegal search and seizure without consent." That constitutes theft. "Thou Shalt NOT Steal" is both Constitutional and Biblical.

Nor does the constitution forbid citizens from giving the police legally obtained information if the police ask for it.

Have you invited the NSA into your home? Btw -- Third-Party theft is no different than a thief selling his "wares" to a pawn shop.

He provided evidence of the US military's surveillance of Chinese government communications to Red China and provided them with a list of compromised IP addresses.

Didn't you earlier in this thread admit to the effect that "everyone knows everyone else spies on each other"? Moreover, you are merely speculating on Snowden's "treason" and so-called "evidence." And pray tell -- is the source of this information the very SAME source that's been harvesting our personal information WITHOUT A WARRANT OR CONSENT??

You can't have it both ways.
