Criticise the government, face charges of sedition.

Welcome to North Korea, sorry Burma.

No wait. Actually it's Laura writing from Albuquerque.

Still at least she wasn't turned in by Google or Yahoo.

Careful what you say, Americans.

What does "act forcefully to remove a government administration"
mean?

A clue might be to point out that "forcefully" is not the same
as "forcibly".

Thenkew.

So, what does "act forcefully to remove a government
administration" mean?

It means just what it says.

Forceful: characterized by force.

She is calling for the removal of the administration through actions
characterized by force.

How is that not sedition?

You're conflating two meanings of the word "force".

No, you idiot. She's just choosing the one that fits best.

Use that great, empty head of yours for a change.
