Hum, when the last time US has declared war, anyways?
December, 1941 I think.

no laws like that in the US. However were we in a declared war their actions here would be punishable by death.
No they wouldn't. Communists weren't executed in either of the World Wars in the U.S., even if they were jailed.
Christianity: The belief that a cosmic Jewish Zombie who was his own father can make you live forever if you symbolically eat his flesh and telepathically tell him you accept him as your master, so he can remove an evil force from your soul that is present in humanity because a rib-woman was convinced by a talking snake to eat from a magical tree...
did the communists support the Nazis? weren't we allied with them during those wars?
Trotskyites (who disliked Stalin, to put it mildly) opposed and even sabotaged the war effort. Ironically, the CP-USA, which was Stalinist, supported the Smith act, which banned organizations supporting the overthrow of the govt by force - it was seen as directed at the Trotskyites at first. Doubly ironic, cause the CP-USA had also opposed the war BEFORE the USSR was invaded - of course the US was neutral then. But the UK imprisoned communists who opposed the war effort in 1939.

made of course, before June 1941. Pulled after the USSR was invaded.
"It was on a Saturday night and the moon was shining bright
They passed the conscription bill
And the people they did say for many miles away
'Twas the President and his boys on Capitol Hill.
CHORUS:
Oh, Franklin Roosevelt told the people how he felt
We damn near believed what he said
He said, "I hate war, and so does Eleanor
But we won't be safe 'till everybody's dead."
When my poor old mother died I was sitting by her side
A-promising to war I'd never go.
But now I'm wearing khaki jeans and eating army beans
And I'm told that J. P. Morgan loves me so.
I have wandered over this land, a roaming working man
No clothes to wear and not much food to eat.
But now the government foots the bill
Gives me clothes and feeds me swill
Gets me shot and puts me underground six feet.
CHORUS
Why nothing can be wrong if it makes our country strong
We got to get tough to save democracy.
And though it may mean war
We must defend Singapore
This don't hurt you half as much as it hurts me."

If we legally declare war, then AMerican citizens will have to actually support the war effort in a meaningful way.
You know, like ration gasoline or something equally earth shattering.
"The DPRK is still in a state of war with the U.S. It's called a black out." - Che explaining why orbital nightime pictures of NK show few lights. Seriously.
No they wouldn't. Communists weren't executed in either of the World Wars in the U.S., even if they were jailed.
The good old times..
I will never understand why some people on Apolyton find you so clever. You're predictable, mundane, and a google-whore and the most observant of us all know this. Your battles of "wits" rely on obscurity and whenever you fail to find something sufficiently obscure, like this, you just act like a 5 year old. Congratulations, molly.

You know, in some consolation to the families at the funerals, that guy was absolutely right: The bastards being there, and being free to be *******s, was a testament to the stil-extant if threatened right to speak your mind. So they should try not to think about all the BS they were spewing, but instead think of the Right their bastardhood represented.
BTW, Phabulous Phred Phelps MAKES HIS MONEY from provoking people. His whole schtick is to get into people's faces until someone gives him a taste of the Persuader, then he sues them. Does he actually believe all his relgious crap or is just a job to him? We'll never know.
