10. Not usually.
Not knowing the intent of the thread, I just blurted out the Ann Coulter response. I was being facetious.

4. Treason. Plain and simple Treason.

Treason:
a crime that undermines the offender's government

disloyalty by virtue of subversive behavior

treachery: an act of deliberate betrayal

In law, treason is the crime of disloyalty to one's nation. A person who reneges on an oath of loyalty or a pledge of allegiance, and in some way willfully cooperates with an enemy, is considered to be a traitor. Oran's Dictionary of the Law (1983) defines treason as: "......citizen's actions to help a foreign government overthrow, make war against, or seriously injure the ."

A serious crime against the state or the monarch.

the betrayal of one's country.

betraying one's country, whether in peacetime or during a war. Allowing (or hiring) a group of terrorists to attack the largest buildings in the nation's largest city and the military's headquarters was an act of treason.

A violation of allegiance toward one's country—especially when this violation endangers the country or assists its enemies

9. "Treason" is destroying or cooperating in the destruction of democracy.
Edited on Mon May-16-05 09:10 PM by Just Me
Democracy promotes respect for the co-existence of differing people without the imposition of any "people" against the will of others.

"Democracy" was created by those who had been subjected to the imposition of will upon those who sought the freedom to be respected as a member of something greater than a handful of crooks who held human spoils at the suffering of the rest of human lives.

We are fighting, again, for our own freedom to be EQUALLY respected as worthy of being human. Those who treat us as less than themselves are the same as those our "forefathers" fought against, creating what we have,...what we had evolved from their wisdom.

It's okay. "They" cannot survive,...without "US",...all of US. They cannot survive,..without us.

"They" are freakin' *LOL*.
