Dr. Martin Luther King broke laws as an act of civil disobedience, and expected to get arrested. These were courageous acts, which only hurt him. What Snowden and Assange did probably cost lives of people working as assets of our government. If you are OK with that because the acts were committed against "the system," or whatever, OK. But, Snowden betrayed his country, violated oaths and did things he signed contracts with the government saying he would not do. He and Assange are Narcissistic cowards.
