Question about the Limits of the First Amendment?

Asked by srmorgan (6773points) October 1st, 2015

The First Amendment states that Congress shall make no law restricting freedom of speech (my paraphrase), but what about speech that in some contexts could be called seditious?

Were comments by Mike Huckabee about not obeying or recognizing a decision by the Supreme Court legalizing same-sex marriage seditious?

When does one cross the line? What are the limits on restricting speech if it can be called seditious?
Just curious
