A quick definition of occupatio:

Term: OCCUPATIO

Definition: Occupatio is a way of getting something that didn't belong to anyone before. For example, if you find a wild bird or pearls on the shore, you can become the owner of it by possessing it first. This is called occupatio in Roman law. It's like finding something and keeping it for yourself.

A more thorough explanation:

Definition: Occupatio is a legal term used in Roman law. It refers to a way of acquiring absolute ownership of something that previously belonged to no one. This could be something like a wild bird or pearls found on the shore.

Example: If someone finds a wild bird that has never been owned by anyone, they can claim ownership of it through occupatio. Similarly, if someone finds pearls on the shore that have not been claimed by anyone, they can also claim ownership through occupatio.

Explanation: Occupatio is a way of acquiring ownership of something that has not previously belonged to anyone. This means that if someone finds something that has been abandoned or has never been owned, they can claim it as their own through occupatio. The examples of a wild bird and pearls on the shore illustrate this concept. If someone finds a wild bird that has never been owned, they can claim it through occupatio. Similarly, if someone finds pearls on the shore that have not been claimed by anyone, they can also claim ownership through occupatio.

@Dkk: Fair enough, but if you're using political philosophy to defend Trump, it's hard to reconcile him as a candidate with very relevant classic political theory, like Locke's individual rights and limited government as illustrated in the 2nd treatise, or the constitutional framework limiting executive power (e.g., Federalist 51). Trump's disregard for constitutional checks and populist rhetoric directly is in tension with our very foundational principles.

@texaslawhopefully: Psssh I would not use gender relations as a way to defend Trump. He does not go that route and I think literally him and everyone in their cabinet has no idea what those are. I mean, just look at how many divorces Elon and Trump have had.

Nah, I did not vote. I have never voted in my life because I have a lot of issues with it. 4 years ago my mom filled out my ballot for me because she wanted to but I do not vote.

@KnowledgeableRitzyWasp: Out of curiosity, since you're in law school and prolly know fedsoc people, how conservative do you think you have to be to be in fedsoc? Like is a david french sort of conservative fairly common in it, or is it the maga type people mainly
i dont interact with any fedsoc people, but i dont know any maga people at cornell. but the student body overwhelmingly leans left, so i think they might not be comfortable showing that theyre conservative if that makes sense?
one time a guy kind of crashed out about masks in conlaw
but that's the most ive seen

Yeah, that does make sense. I would like to join fedsoc, but I'm also, clearly, very opposed to Trump and where the GOP has gone.
if you join fedsoc and go for clerking and eventually become a judge. you will be pinholed into maga politics as long as maga is the predominant conservative stance
Idk if @irishdinosaur is online but congrats on UCLA!!
next you will say you want to be the first black kkk grand wizard
