re: #261 The Vicious Babushka

Isn’t that, oh I dunno, actual TREASON?

Surprisingly, not exactly.

Whoever, owing allegiance to the United States, levies war against them or adheres to their enemies, giving them aid and comfort within the United States or elsewhere, is guilty of treason and shall suffer death, or shall be imprisoned not less than five years and fined under this title but not less than $10,000; and shall be incapable of holding any office under the United States.

War is pretty obviously out, since we’re currently talking just fucking shit up. Does he adhere to our enemies? Maybe, maybe not. If he’s just fucking shit up, with no loyalty to anything or anyone, maybe not treason, if he’s doing it to help an enemy plan, then probably.

Actual Legal Lizardim are welcome to weigh in on this subject, however.
