Some say Edward Snowden is a hero and a patriot. Others say he's a fool and a traitor. The evidence is mounting that the guy who leaked the details about the National Security Agency's Internet-eavesdropping program may be something more sinister - n...
Being a victim is supposed to set you free; it acquits you of any agency, any sense of responsibility to the person who did you harm. , they say. , they say. Nobody ever tells you what to do if leaving isn't an option. They just call you stupid. A du...
