Of course you knew her personally and can comment on her personality.

No. Nor did 99.9% of the people filling British television declaring QM some kind of saint.

Actually, I believe the opposite is true: that "treason" is still a punishable offence among the English monarchy's claimed subjects?

"treason"? yes, treason is still an offence - in times of war. It doesn't generally get considered to include saying nasty anti-monarchy statements on newsgroups - no matter whether some of us think it ought to or not.

Being a pratt is not illegal - just stupid.
