Reader comment on article: Hizb ut-Tahrir: Constitution Will Lose

I do not understand... If the following statement is true, then how is it that this type of meeting, with this type of speech is allowed to carry on within the United States... especially during a time of war? I don't even understand why the religion of Islam is allowed to exist in this country when they so clearly wish to overthrow us.

"Speech becomes treason when it transcends mere words, ceasing to be communication alone, and satisfies the four requisites demanded by the Supreme Court: (1) an overt act, (2) testified to by two witnesses, (3) manifesting an intent to betray the United States (which can be inferred from the overt act itself), and (4) providing aid and comfort to the enemy. "
