A quick definition of savings bank:

A savings bank is a type of bank where people can deposit their money and earn interest on it. It is a safe place to keep your money and can help you save for the future. Sometimes, people can also borrow money from a savings bank to buy a house or a car. In maritime law, there is a special clause called the saving-to-suitors clause that allows people to file a lawsuit in a nonadmiralty court if they want to.

A more thorough explanation:

A savings bank is a type of bank that primarily accepts deposits from customers and pays interest on those deposits. It differs from a commercial bank in that it does not offer a wide range of financial services such as loans and credit cards.

  • Savings-bank trust: A type of trust account held by a savings bank on behalf of a customer.
  • Savings bond: A type of government bond that pays interest and is sold to individual investors.
  • Savings clause: A clause in a legal document that preserves certain rights or options.
  • Savings note: A type of promissory note issued by a savings bank.
  • Saving-to-suitors clause: A clause in maritime law that allows a plaintiff to file a lawsuit in a non-admiralty court.

These examples illustrate the different ways in which the term "savings bank" is used in various contexts. They show that savings banks offer different types of financial products and services, and that the term can also be used in legal contexts such as trusts and maritime law.

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.
