Treason
American to just criticize the government and are guilty of the crime? I guess this just depends on how you look at this situation. This question can have many answers. If your looking at this from a world view it can be easy to make these claims with facts and merit. But from another view here in the states people can see these things the way others do they are blinded by everyday life. Hope this was able to answer your question.

Yes, if they were not allowed it would be racist and prejudice, which is a crime.
One way to use "guilty" in a sentence is: "He felt guilty for forgetting his friend's birthday."
A culprit is someone who is guilty of a crime, or other misdeed.
Aquitted is a pronouncement of "not guilty." Not guilty is not innocent.
Criticizing the government is not a crime, and I have never seen an example (at least in modern times) of one being arrested for having an opinion on the government. So, in order for me to give anymore of a legitimate answer, you will have to provide me with an example of someone being arrested for nothing more than expressing their opinion.
