I assume he gave up his American citizenship before he did this. Also, I'm wondering if his action will spread onto others...exposing the truth behind this tyranny?
What a brave, smart, strong, principled man! Hooray for this much needed hero who did the right thing. This matter needs to get burst wide open and stay on the front burner for forever... All of our rights and freedoms depend on it...not to mention is safety. His biggest fear, "that nothing will change." A good man who DIDN'T stand by and do nothing. Tyranny be damned!
