If this indian Evo Morales as president of his country is also the main promoter of his country's production of coca and by extension the production of cocaine and not only that he has also expellt the DEA contingent from his country as they were a thorn in his plans to grow coca, anything short of shooting down his "presidential plane" is acceptable
Joel, I agree. But he is actively evading capture. He needs to be arrested before he enjoys the innocent until guilty perks
Very true. If the issue is to bring the domestic espionage issue to the attention of the American public, this has been accomplished. If the evasion was to create public awareness to avoid a 'disappearance', that to is accomplished. As such, I am in favor of his return to place the question before the courts. There are parallels with Daniel Ellsberg. This is tending away from aviation related issues.

This guy is guilty of treason, he has put all of our lives at risk, his crimes must be answered to. If I am on a flight and it re directs or delayed cause this goof might be on board....I am ok with that. I the vast majority of people would feel that way. I hope this guy hangs.....

My Friend , Guilty? Not guilty? Are you competent to make that decision ? A big NO . He is alleged to have committed crime/s. There are rules of fair play, fair trial, level playing fields and all that . The extent of fair play defines the existence of civility in a system or republic or democracy . For example , compare free style boxing with game of tennis or basket ball or foot ball. All have different set of rules and risk factors .
This man is entitled to all these! No more, no less.

Jon, this is America. Mr. Snowden has been charged with certain violations, he has not been subject to a jury trial and convicted. American justice system as a presumption of 'innocent until proven guilty.
Some time ago a bunch of guys were declared guilty of treason under a judicial system that did have 'guilty until proven innocent'. They were guilty for writing a document which started "When in the course of human events....". You might consider those concepts on this day.
