dangerous condition

Read a random definition: loco rerum immobilium

A quick definition of dangerous condition:

A dangerous condition is when something is wrong with a property that could hurt someone if they use it normally. For example, a broken step on a staircase could be a dangerous condition. It can also mean a risk that children might not understand and could get hurt by. A dangerous condition might make someone responsible for any injuries that happen because of it.

A more thorough explanation:

A dangerous condition is a property defect that creates a significant risk of injury when the property is used in a reasonably foreseeable manner. It can also refer to a property risk that children, due to their immaturity, cannot appreciate or avoid. For example, a broken staircase in an apartment building is a dangerous condition because it poses a risk of injury to tenants who use it. Another example is a swimming pool without a fence, which can be a dangerous condition for children who may accidentally fall in and drown. A dangerous condition is a term used in the legal context to describe a property defect that poses a risk of harm to individuals who use the property. It can be a physical defect, such as a broken staircase or a slippery floor, or a lack of safety features, such as a fence around a swimming pool. The definition also includes property risks that children may not be able to appreciate or avoid due to their immaturity. For example, a child may not understand the danger of playing near a busy road or an unsecured swimming pool. In legal cases, a dangerous condition can result in the waiver of sovereign immunity, which means that the government can be held liable for injuries caused by the dangerous condition. Property owners can also be held liable for injuries caused by a dangerous condition on their property. Overall, a

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.
