>Assume for the moment I agree that civil disobedience against the state and secession ARE acts of treason. It does not follow that flying the Confederate flag is an act of treason. It definitely could. Nonsense. It definitely couldn't. Treason: Violation of allegiance toward one's country or sovereign ... Flying the Confederate flag could not possibly be construed by any reasonable person as "violation of allegiance toward one's country". Jim McDermott can go to Iraq, call our president a liar, state that he trusts the enemy's dictator more than our own leader, and not be guilty of treason, but someone flying a Confederate flag in our country could be. Do you know how f*ing stupid this sounds to a reasonable person? If I choose to fly an Iraq flag outside my house today, am I guilty of treason and should I be arrested and shot? Only liberals could be so absurdly all over the place.
