A quick definition of constructive adverse possession:

Constructive Adverse Possession: Constructive adverse possession is a legal term that refers to the use or enjoyment of real property with a claim of right when that use or enjoyment is continuous, exclusive, hostile, open, and notorious. It can also refer to adverse possession by operation of law, where a possessor holds title to the property and corporeally possesses part of it, and is deemed to have constructive possession of the rest of the property described in the title. Essentially, it means that if someone uses or occupies a piece of land for a certain amount of time, they may be able to claim ownership of it, even if they don't have a legal title to it.

A more thorough explanation:

Definition: Constructive adverse possession is a legal concept where a person can claim ownership of a property by paying taxes on it, even if they do not physically possess it.

For example, if someone pays property taxes on a piece of land for a certain number of years, they may be able to claim ownership of that land through constructive adverse possession, even if they never actually lived on or used the land.

This concept is based on the idea that if someone is paying taxes on a property, they are essentially treating it as their own and should be able to claim ownership over time.

Overall, constructive adverse possession is a way for someone to gain ownership of a property through a legal loophole, even if they did not acquire it through traditional means like buying it or inheriting it.

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.
