A quick definition of sanae mentis:

Term: SANAE MENTIS

Definition: Sanae mentis means that someone is of sound mind and is not mentally ill. It is a term used in the past in legal contexts to determine if someone was capable of making decisions or entering into contracts.

A more thorough explanation:

Definition: Sanae mentis (san-ee men-tis) is a Latin term used in law to describe someone who is of sound mind or sane mind.

Examples:

  • Before signing a legal document, the person must be of sanae mentis.
  • The court declared the defendant not guilty by reason of insanity, as they were not of sanae mentis at the time of the crime.

The first example illustrates how the term is used to ensure that a person is mentally capable of making a legal decision. The second example shows how the term can be used in a legal context to determine a person's guilt or innocence based on their mental state.

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

@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.
