I Was Thinking Something Similar Today

Mark Eby — 8/30/2005 9:48:43 PM (archived)

I was wondering why there was such a focus on the crime issue and putting people in jail while trying for the most part to stear clear of the issue of providing aid an comfort to the enemy. No one has been arrested or even subject to police intimidation that I know of when accusations along the lines of supporting enemy propaganda have been made even when the words treason have been used in conjuction. It's not the law and no one claimed it was. The word alone is not going to put anyone in jail.

I really had to laugh when GB pointed out that Gary actually said preaching treaon then Robert tired to claim that was the same thing as treason while most of his supporters were saying mere words couldn't be treason.

Regards,
Mark
