A quick definition of abuse of rights:

Abuse of rights refers to the misuse or wrongful exercise of a right that causes harm to others. This can happen in two ways: in international law, when a country uses its rights to harm another country or impede their own rights, and in Louisiana law, when a person exercises their rights in a way that damages their neighbor without any benefit to themselves. It is important to use our rights responsibly and consider how they may affect others.

A more thorough explanation:

Abuse of rights is when someone uses their rights in a way that harms others or goes against the reason the right was created. There are two main types of abuse of rights:

When a country uses its rights in a way that stops other countries from enjoying their own rights or uses them to harm another country, it is called abuse of rights. For example, if a country uses its right to trade to stop another country from trading, that is abuse of rights.

In Louisiana, abuse of rights is when someone uses their rights in a way that harms their neighbor without any benefit to themselves. For example, if someone has the right to play loud music in their own home, but they do it at all hours of the night and it disturbs their neighbor's sleep, that is abuse of rights.

Both of these examples show how someone can use their rights in a way that harms others or goes against the reason the right was created. It is important to remember that having rights also means respecting the rights of others.

I mean, idk how it's possible to end birth right citizenship without amending the constitution because to me the 14th amendment is pretty clear about it.
ross ulbricht tried to hire a hitman to kill 5 people
i am not that sympathetic to him

@KnowledgeableRitzyWasp: That might have been an FBI agent. It was most likely him and he was most likely doing it to retrieve stolen funds that corrupt FBI agents stole, but yeah moral gray area but me personally, cool with hitmen. It's not like it is uncommon to hire hitmen. I don't think the action itself is necessarily wrong but the intent behind it can be.

Like, Boeing whistblowers being killed by hitmen = wrong but a guy hiring hitmen to retrieve stolen funds = good to me.

@Dkk: Yeah, for sure. My guess is it'll go to SCOTUS and it'll be 8-1 or 7-2, saying that EO was unconstitutional.
