A quick definition of rule of justice:

The rule of justice is a principle that helps us understand how much freedom we have to do what we want without hurting others. It means that we can do things that make us happy, but only if it doesn't harm other people or the world around us. This way, we can all live together in a way that is fair and good for everyone.

A more thorough explanation:

Definition: The rule of justice is a principle in law that sets boundaries on individual freedom in the pursuit of personal well-being. These boundaries are established to ensure that individual liberty does not conflict with the greater good of society.

Examples:

  • A person has the right to free speech, but they cannot use that right to incite violence or harm others.
  • A business owner has the right to make a profit, but they cannot do so by engaging in unethical or illegal practices.
  • A driver has the right to operate a vehicle, but they must follow traffic laws to ensure the safety of themselves and others on the road.

These examples illustrate how the rule of justice balances individual freedom with the needs of society. While individuals have certain rights and freedoms, they must also act responsibly and within the boundaries of the law to ensure that their actions do not harm others or the greater good.

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.
