I was recently informed my definition of "sedition" was different than that used in the United States due to my being from another country (I was born here and raised in the U.S.).
My thanks to that poster (what, you expect me to silence them? No way! Seditious people should speak up rather than be silent, be patriotic rather than seditious).
What I'm asking for you to do is to first write down your definition of sedition, then look up the original sedition laws and read them, then edit your answer to add your thoughts about the differences, your insights as to why yours is the same or different than what was originally meant. Is that O.K.? If anyone else has a similar one, email me and I'll answer!
The document isn't too long, and I encourage research past my link, of course. Have fun!
Here's the link AFTER you post your own definition, then come back and add notes: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Sedition_Act_of_1918
