You are so full of shit, it isn’t even funny:

Snowden could have been an official whistleblower and avoided prosecution

He literally tried to do that and was ignored.

leaked only to US papers and avoided prosecution

You mean like the American Branch of the Guardian and the Washington Post? Aka the Newspaper that he leaked to?

leaked only non-classified information and avoided prosecution

Leaking unclassified information about a classified program. How do you imagine that?

Snowden sold classified info to enemies of the US. He made his bed.

No, he literally did not.

How about you stop getting your info from Fox News?
