TREASON: Whoever, owing allegiance to the United States, levies war against them or adheres to their enemies, giving them aid and comfort within the United States or elsewhere, is guilty of treason and shall suffer death.
I see a lot of comments calling everything treason. most of the times the crimes are serious, but do not fit this strict definition. We need to maintain higher standards here and call out crimes for what they are - not just label everything treason.
SEDITION: If two or more persons in any State or Territory, or in any place subject to the jurisdiction of the United States, conspire to overthrow, put down, or to destroy by force the Government of the United States, or to levy war against them, or to oppose by force the authority thereof, or by force to prevent, hinder, or delay the execution of any law of the United States, or by force to seize, take, or possess any property of the United States contrary to the authority thereof, they shall each be fined under this title or imprisoned not more than twenty years, or both.
MUTINY: a)Any person subject to this chapter who— (1)with intent to usurp or override lawful military authority, refuses, in concert with any other person, to obey orders or otherwise do his duty or creates any violence or disturbance is guilty of mutiny; (2)with intent to cause the overthrow or destruction of lawful civil authority, creates, in concert with any other person, revolt, violence, or other disturbance against that authority is guilty of sedition; (3)fails to do his utmost to prevent and suppress a mutiny or sedition being committed in his presence, or fails to take all reasonable means to inform his superior commissioned officer or commanding officer of a mutiny or sedition which he knows or has reason to believe is taking place, is guilty of a failure to suppress or report a mutiny or sedition. (b)A person who is found guilty of attempted mutiny, mutiny, sedition, or failure to suppress or report a mutiny or sedition shall be punished by death or such other punishment as a court-martial may direct.
Thank you for this. Histrionics do not serve us well, especially in reaching out to normies. Opposing political view or insufficiency (eg, "not conservative enough") is not traitorous or seditious. We need to hold to a higher standard.
Disagree. Anyone who voted for Biden or a RINO is giving aid and comfort to our enemies. I would argue they are all traitors.
They are Americans too bro. Misguided of course but casting a vote for the wrong guy is NOT treason
