A quick definition of peace treaty:

A peace treaty is an agreement signed by leaders of countries to end a war. It is like a promise to stop fighting and work towards peace. A treaty is a written agreement between two or more countries that is governed by international law. It can also be an agreement between private individuals, like when someone buys a house from another person. A treaty can have different names depending on what it is about, like a treaty of alliance for mutual support or a treaty of neutrality to avoid aggression.

A more thorough explanation:

A peace treaty is an agreement between two or more countries or sovereigns to end a war. It is a formal document that is signed, ratified, or adhered to by the parties involved. The treaty is governed by international law and can be called by different names such as accord, convention, covenant, declaration, or pact.

For example, the Treaty of Versailles was signed in 1919 to end World War I. It was signed by Germany and the Allied Powers, which included the United States, Great Britain, France, and Italy. The treaty imposed heavy penalties on Germany, including the loss of territory, military restrictions, and reparations.

Another example is the Camp David Accords, which were signed in 1978 between Israel and Egypt. The treaty was brokered by the United States and led to the normalization of relations between the two countries.

Peace treaties can also include other types of agreements, such as treaties of alliance, treaties of neutrality, and treaties of guarantee. These agreements establish mutual obligations between the parties involved, such as coming to each other's aid in the event of an attack or refraining from engaging in aggressive actions against each other.

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.
