LOL, that looks a little messy. Despite that, we’re in agreement to the original meaning of the word. I still think it has been bastardized by today’s media, and its use against Conservative is inexcusable. (along the lines of it’s substitution for ‘terrorist’) And I would add, even in its proper context as well.

Even within a Constitutional environment, open dissent is deemed healthy, not a threat. The use of this word was out of context in the extreme IMO.

Well, that would follow, considering what bastards they are.

But the founding fathers were insurgents were they not?
