A quick definition of law-enforcement system:

A law-enforcement system, also known as a criminal-justice system, is a group of organizations that work together to handle cases involving people who have been accused of breaking the law. This system is made up of three parts: law enforcement (like police officers), the judicial process (like judges and lawyers), and corrections (like prison officials). The goal of the law-enforcement system is to make sure that justice is served and that people who break the law are held accountable for their actions.

A more thorough explanation:

A law-enforcement system is a collective group of institutions that an accused offender goes through until the accusations have been resolved or the punishment has been given. It consists of three main components: law enforcement, judicial process, and corrections.

  • Law Enforcement: This component includes police officers, sheriffs, and marshals who are responsible for maintaining law and order, preventing crime, and apprehending offenders.
  • Judicial Process: This component includes judges, prosecutors, and defense lawyers who are responsible for ensuring that the accused offender receives a fair trial and justice is served.
  • Corrections: This component includes prison officials, probation officers, and parole officers who are responsible for rehabilitating offenders and ensuring that they do not commit crimes again.

For example, if someone is accused of a crime, they will be arrested by law enforcement officers and taken to court. The judicial process will then take place, where the accused will be tried by a judge and a jury. If found guilty, the offender will be sent to prison or given probation or parole under the supervision of corrections officers.

Overall, the law-enforcement system is designed to maintain law and order, protect citizens, and ensure that justice is served.

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.
