Actually, people like yourself were calling for his head from day one, so I don't think the situation would've magically changed at all if he had stopped after the first release.
And by the way, I posed a scenario and asked what you would do. Would you convict the black guy for driving simply because it was the law, or would you use jury nullification because you recognize that the law is unconstitutional and bull****?
I would have to check what the first releases were. If they referred only to infringements of citizens rights domestically, I don't see that it would have been treason. You would have to check what the exact information was, however.
And as to the other question, I would not want to live in a country, where I would get into that position, which is one reason I do not live in a country with capital punishment. In any event, I feel that such a law is not in order and would work on getting it changed. I do that a lot.
