    sounds like drunk in public but there's no way that'd be grouped in with treason
    Inciting riot, participation in sedition or rebellion (which is not treason, in a technical sense, despite what all the damn yankees want to believe.)
    When all else fails, blame brown people. | Hire a teen, while they still know it all. | Trump-Palin 2016. "You're fired." "I quit."

      More modern authority defines a breach of the peace as existing whether harm is actually done, or is likely to be done, to a person or his property, or a person is in fear of being harmed through an assault, an affray, a riot, an unlawful assembly, or some other form of disturbance.[4]

      The power to arrest for a breach of the Peace is usually used to remove violent, potentially violent or provocative offenders (it is not necessary for the offender himself to be physically involved in any violence) from a scene rapidly
      It tends to be used as a convenient charge for containing rowdiness.
