How many years will Snowden serve in prison?

[CK_John]

I think about 30.

[NoOneMan]

1. Should of killed a kid eating Skittles if he valued freedom

But noooo. He got all leaky up on us

[morningfog]

2. If taken into custody, tried and convicted, he'll serve life, at a minimum.

3. If he didn't run away and fornicate with other world leaders

he'd suffer the same fate as the previous 3 NSA 'whistleblowers'. All are still here, NOT in jail, and have respect across the board.

Snowden has NO ONE to blame but HIMSELF.

[Purveyor]

4. zero. He will never be back in this country. Godspeed. eom

5. He'll end up being given amnesty like the war resistors in Canada and return home.

6. I've seen anywhere from 36 months to 10 years mentioned on DU.

Those who want to construct a reason for Snowden going on the run like to imagine a life term but give no basis for that belief.

7. agree, about 25-30 if he doesn't find a way to south america...

and the rest of his life in fear if he does get to south america, however long or short that life may be.
