I'm trying to think of how you could prosecute free speech (in the
US).  It's not illegal to talk about how to use rusty nails to create
themite - that's been in the Anarchist Cookbook for years.  It's a
somewhat fine line between "X should be killed" and "incitement to
murder" but as all the Assange and Snowden press has shown, that's not
a great indicator.  I don't _think_ nuclear secrets is actually
protected, it's just that the individuals who know about them are
contracted/NDA-ed/under classified restrictions.

ESPECIALLY when polygraphs aren't actually accepted by the courts, as
far as I know.

"So far, authorities have targeted at least two instructors, one of
whom has pleaded guilty to federal charges, several people familiar
with the investigation told McClatchy."

Love to know the inside details of the person who pleaded guilty, and why.
