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

Jette Goldie
"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.

Loyal subject, we can assume?

Being a pratt is not illegal - just stupid.

And so we continue to try sweet reason with Louis and the other monarchists, rather than just kill-filing them out of hand...
