Sedition From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia (GENERALLY not RELIABLE FOR CRIMINAL OR RELATED LAWS. Anyone can put in their opinion. But WTH, get s/he into court and I'll vote, if on the jury, for the death penalty, over and above the 20yr limit- Just My Liberal Feelings)

Sedition is overt conduct, such as speech and organization, that TENDS toward insurrection against the established order. Sedition often includes subversion of a constitution and incitement of discontent towards, or resistance against established authority. Sedition may include any commotion, though not aimed at direct and open violence against the laws. Seditious words in writing are seditious libel. A seditionist is one who engages in or promotes the interest of sedition.

FIND LAWS interpretation:
In order to get a conviction for seditious conspiracy, the government must prove that the defendant in fact conspired to use force. Simply advocating for the use of force is not the same thing and in most cases is protected as free speech under the First Amendment. For example, two or more people who give public speeches suggesting the need for a total revolution "by any means necessary" have not necessarily conspired to overthrow the government. Rather, they're just sharing their opinions, however unsavory. But actively planning such an action (distributing guns, working out the logistics of an attack, actively opposing lawful authority, etc.) could be considered a seditious conspiracy.
