A quick definition of lynch law:

LYNCH LAW: Lynch law is when people take the law into their own hands and punish someone for a crime they think they committed, without going through the legal system. This can include killing the person without any legal authority. It is also called Judge Lynch.

A more thorough explanation:

Lynch law refers to the act of punishing someone for a crime they are accused of without any legal authority. This punishment can include death and is carried out without a trial or any other legal process.

For example, if a group of people accuse someone of stealing, they may take matters into their own hands and decide to punish the accused person by lynching them. This is a form of vigilante justice and is illegal.

The term "Judge Lynch" is sometimes used to personify this type of punishment.

Lyndhurst's Act was an English statute passed in 1835 that made marriages within certain degrees of kinship null and void. This means that if two people were related within a certain degree, their marriage would not be recognized as legal.

For example, if a brother and sister were to get married, their marriage would not be recognized under Lyndhurst's Act.

The act was named after Lord Lyndhurst, who was the Lord Chancellor of England at the time.

The whole having a group of hot chick friends you can flirt with while going out is great. Makes for a fun and safer environment when drinking.

Crazy story, I had dinner with the dad of a friend of mine and he just openly went on Tinder in front of me and the other guys. Later my mom ran into him with another woman (not his wife/friend's mom) and he got very uncomfortable and never texted her again

I keep my dating very clean and above board. No overlaps, no ambiguities. If you want to go into some sort of public office in the future it's good to be smart about things like that

babycat

So many politicians have sex scandals and that's how they get blackmailed and other people have power over them. I mean of course there are ethical and emotional issues too but it's literally just smart to not be a cheater

I would never go into public office as it drags in your family as well. Dating is so much easier then some people make it out to be and it is not that hard to not cheat. I would always tell my soldiers to rub one out before making a big decision so they arent acting dumb

BulbasaurNoLikeCardio

Like if more cheaters just paused and rubbed one out they would be like you know maybe ill just watch some TV

babycat

15:20

I've seen some people do a really good job keeping their family out of it. But it really is an "anything they can use against you, they will" type of vibe
