And I am polite.  Tell me what you mean by sedition?

Pretty much exactly what was posted above, emphasis added:


--- Quote ---sedition is overt conduct, such as speech and organization, that is deemed by the legal authority to tend toward insurrection against the established order. Sedition often includes subversion of a constitution and incitement of discontent (or resistance) to lawful authority.

The emphasis is the key point here because our Constitution is the authority of the land, even above legal authority. If the legal authority outlaws speech or dissent, then the 'legal authority' is the one committing sedition, not the person who speaks out against that legal authority.

Thanks -- in behalf of me and the site.
