THE SEDITION ACT OF JULY 14, 1798

An Act in addition to the act, entitled "An act for the punishment of certain crimes against the United States."

SEC. I Be it enacted by the Senate and House of Representatives of the United States of America, in Congress assembled, That if any persons shall unlawfully combine or conspire together, with intent to oppose any measure or measures of the government of the United States, which are or shall be directed by proper authority, or to impede the operation of any law of the United States, or to intimidate or prevent any person holding a place or office in or under the government of the United States, from undertaking, performing or executing his trust or duty; and if any person or persons, with intent as aforesaid, shall counsel, advise or attempt to procure any insurrection, riot. unlawful assembly, or combination, whether such conspiracy, threatening, counsel, advice, or attempt shall have the proposed effect or not, he or they shall be deemed guilty of a high misdemeanor, and on conviction, before any court of the United States having jurisdiction thereof, shall be punished by a fine not exceeding five thousand dollars, and by imprisonment during a term not less than six months nor exceeding five years; and further, at the discretion of the court may be holden to find sureties for his good behaviour in such sum, and for such time, as the said court may direct.

SEC. 2. And be it further enacted, That if any person shall write, print, utter or publish, or shall cause or procure to be written, printed, uttered or publishing, or shall knowingly and willingly assist or aid in writing, printing, uttering or publishing any false, scandalous and malicious writing or writings against the government of the United States, or either house of the Congress of the United States, or the President of the United States, with intent to defame the said government, or either house of the said Congress, or the said President, or to bring them, or either of them, into contempt or disrepute; or to excite against them, or either or any of them, the hatred of the good people of the United States, or to excite any unlawful combinations therein, for opposing or resisting any law of the United States, or any act of the President of the United States, done in pursuance of any such law, or of the powers in him vested by the constitution of the United States, or to resist, oppose, or defeat any such law or act, or to aid, encourage or abet any hostile designs of any foreign nation against the United States, their people or government, then such person, being thereof convicted before any court of the United States having jurisdiction thereof, shall be punished by a fine not exceeding two thousand dollars, and by imprisonment not exceeding two years.

SEC. 3. And be it further enacted, and declared, That if any person shall be prosecuted under this act, for the writing or publishing any libel aforesaid, it shall be lawful for the defendant, upon the trial of the cause, to give in evidence in his defence, the truth of the matter contained in the publication charged as a libel. And the jury who shall try the cause, shall have a right to determine the law and the fact, under the direction of the court, as in other cases.

SEC. 4. And be it further enacted, That this act shall continue and be in force until the third day of March, one thousand eight hundred and one, and no longer: Provided. That the expiration of the act shall not prevent or defeat a prosecution and punishment of any offence against the law, during the time it shall be in force.

JONATHAN DAYTON, Speaker of the House of Representatives.

THEODORE SEDGWICK, President of the Senate, pro tempore.

APPROVED, July 14, 1798:

JOHN ADAMS, President of the United States.

The divergent cast of characters starring in this freak show has to be costing the RAT cult a pretty penny. Hopefully it'll cost them millions of votes in '04.

I notified all Oregon Freepers that there would be a 'Peace March' today in Portland. Planned to stage a counter demonstration. I received one FR email in reply to my query.

After attempting to organize a Freeper Group and seeing it crash and burn because of *lack of interest* this was my fifth and final attempt to organize a Freeper meeting to do anything.

Me thinks all Oregonians want to do is go camping, play card games in the woods, drink beer around the campfire and then piss in the campfire when it gets late. I had enough of that when I was in the Boy Scouts.

Just got back to Northern Virginia via Metro/subway. Rode with my daughter through DC to Univ of Maryland so she can attend the Duke game. The Metro trains are bursting at the seams with peaceniks, lolol, including tons of old burnouts in their 50's and 60's. Almost all of the peaceniks are boarding in Maryland. Not many coming from Northern Virginia, where people actually work for a living. It looks like they are all from the comfortable, educated economic class. One old burnout got off the train with his wife saying, "Let's make history!" LOLOL...as IF! Outta my way, moron, and stay to the right on the escalator...so you can eat my dust.

I wonder what the reaction of these mental/emotional cripples will be when the whole nation of Iraq celebrates Saddam's ouster, and Iraqi children finally get medicine.

"Tens of thousands of people have converged on the National Mall this morning..."

Well, so much for the claims by the protestors that 200,000 to 400,000 would show up today...

Kristinn, I heard your interview on WMAL radio and was glad the full title of the rally was used. Patriot's Rally to Support our Troops certainly appeals to a different segment of the population than Anti-War Rally. Thanks for all that you do.

The anti-America protesters have failed. From Fox News:
21. Do you support or oppose U.S. military action TO DISARM IRAQ AND REMOVE Iraqi President Saddam Hussein?

67% Support 25% Oppose

Protesters Gathering To Oppose War Bush

They're not concerned about peace. If they were, they'd be consistant.
They were no where to be found when Clinton deployed troops and bombed - even when it had nothing to do with our national security.

Even their vsits to create terror in the minds of little school chldren had nothing to do with peace. They used the terrified children as political tools. They'd send them home to pressure their parents not to vote for Bush in 2004, using the war as an anti-Bush propaganda tool.
If it were othewise, they'd have found pro-Bush supporters anywhere. 56% of the population supports Bushs plan to out Saddam.
They simply didn't want the pro-American patriots message to get to the children. Their propaganda campain would have been ruined.

Tens of thousands of people ?

According to FOX, that count is a lot lower. They're waiting for a real number.
