		Following their acquittal, the LCS, which had 17 "divisions" (each "division," according to the Society's by-laws, was to have a minimum of 30 and a maximum of 60 members) in March 1795, grew to 40 divisions by July and by October numbered 70 divisions.
		The Seditious Meetings Act, introduced at the same time, provided that any public meeting of more than fifty persons had to be authorized by a local magistrate.
		LCS leader, John Gale Jones, asserted that the acts were part of a scheme by Pitt to place himself on the throne, and that governments that stifled public debate suffered the highest rates of political assassination. This was the sort of talk that would raise red flags in the minds of the government.

	Australian sedition law - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
		Section 24B defines seditious words as words expressive of a seditious intention, and Section 24D(1) specifies that [a]ny person who, with the intention of causing violence or creating public disorder or a public disturbance, writes, prints, utters or publishes any seditious words shall be guilty of an indictable offence punishable by [i]mprisonment for 3 years.
		Section 24E allows that, while an accused person may elect to be committed for trial, sedition may, with the consent of the Attorney-General, be prosecuted summarily, in which case the applicable penalty would be imprisonment for a period not exceeding 12 months.
		However, the amended legislation would no longer include specific penalties for uttering seditious words, nor provisions relating to seditious enterprises, although the definition of seditious intent would continue to apply in the determination of unlawful organisations.

	If the King Only Knew: Seditious Speech in the Reign of Louis XV, by Lisa Jane Graham
		Seditious Speech in the Reign of Louis XV Lisa Jane Graham
		When he was questioned at the Bastille over the next several months, La Motte was unequivocal in his loyalty to the king, but his insistence failed to convince the police and probably hurt his case more than would have a simple admission of guilt.
		Ironically, the decision to repress seditious speech not only alienated essentially loyal French men and women; by marking them as opponents of monarchical authority, it strengthened their sense of their own autonomy and legitimacy as social actors.

	Terror Inquiry Is Using Law on Sedition
		The assertion, contained in an indictment of a Jordanian student who was living in San Diego, where he attended college, was the first indication that seditious conspiracy is one of the areas being examined in the investigation stemming from the attacks on the World Trade Center and the Pentagon.
		The student indicted yesterday, Osama Awadallah, was not accused of seditious conspiracy, but rather was charged with two counts of perjury before the grand jury that has been investigating the attacks.
		Although the indictment offers no elaboration on how the government may seek to use the rarely used seditious conspiracy law, prosecutors could be searching for ways to charge suspects who cannot be directly linked to the deadly hijackings plot.

	Beware seditious artists - Opinion - smh.com.au
		As a filmmaker, I see the Anti-Terrorism Bill's explicit definition of "seditious intent" as another nail in the coffin of an already compliant industry ground down by the marginalising of the "elites" and their often left-leaning views.

		It will be argued that mechanisms will be in place to defend acts done in "good faith" and without "force or violence", but the definitions remain for all to read, evidence of this Government's failure to comprehend the place for dissent in a democracy, and its hatred of it.

	Introduction to the Free Speech Clause of the First Amendment
		In the Zenger case, a New York jury returned a verdict of "not guilty" on a charge of seditious libel--in contrast to the practice in England where juries were permitted only to decide whether the defendant printed the allegedly libelous words.
		As a result of the precedent set in the Zenger case, and the reluctance of juries to support prosecutions for seditious libel, the common law of seditious libel in America became generally unenforceable.
		Zenger was tried in 1735 on charges of seditious libel, but what acquitted by a jury in what is a landmark in free speech law.
