I don't think he was saying this is an example of squatters rights. He is saying that squatters rights is an example of a principle where an unlawful act done long enough becomes a lawful act.
- btilly 6y agoAlmost. Not becomes, can become.
- sib 6y agoBut "squatters rights" are in fact the law... So a party "squatting" and thereby becoming the new owner is not a counterexample to the statement that "Unlawful acts, performed long enough and with sufficient vigor, are never enough to amend the law." The squatters are not amending the law, they are acting in accordance with it.
