fortunately, we don't do justice by opinion poll!
also, if we poll the world, which is the relevant population, i have little doubt that the majority is not for putting him on trial. generally, i suspect folks are very grateful that he revealed a major league bad actor on the internet.
but how many would put the us on trial for various crimes? torture (whoops, enhanced interrogation)? illegal surveillance (excuse me, total information awareness)? assassination (i mean the drone programme)? kidnapping (er, secret rendition)?
looks like a bit of a pattern, doesn't it?
the surprising thing is the number of democrats who were against such things when bush was president and who are for them under obama.
i'm trying to figure what might have changed their minds.
