Sigh. I emphasized "basically" precisely to avoid this discussion.
- dfc 15y agoBasically? Saying basically just avoids any real discussion of legal distinctions. When you said "basically" did you also mean to prevent discussion of duress? False pretenses? Fraud?
- pbhjpbhj 15y agoOh come off it, calm down a bit. He said basically IMO because he meant "of the subset of actions against your person or property that you can legally consent to the further subset of those you have freely consented to are those actions that you can not properly object to being performed". It's an internet forum not rendition of statute. He can't say anything that "prevent"s proper discussion on an open internet forum. If you wanted to discuss informed consent, duress or fraud why not just do that.
- burgerbrain 15y agoIf he wants to make a comment discussing giving away your rights, he should damn well be prepared to discuss it's legality.
- 0x0x0x 15y agoOh please. Use a little common sense next time you post. Anyone who attends, what sixth grade, knows there are some rights you can't give up and my comment was merely an attempt to avoid some tired lengthy discussion of that. From what we know the "suspect" consented to a search of his apartment. That's the end of at least this part of the story.
- burgerbrain 15y agoThe general population barely knows what rights they have, let alone what rights they cannot give up. It is an important aspect of the conversation.
- dfc 15y agoI'm not sure I understand what you meant by: "of the subset of actions against your person or property that you can legally consent to the further subset of those you have freely consented to are those actions that you can not properly object to being performed". I do not understand the "consent to the further subset..." Part. Its not a sentence construction I am familiar with.
- pbhjpbhj 15y agoSorry that would be my legal training. Perhaps you can attempt to construe the sentence in the spirit it was written (like with badly drafted law ;0), you sound like you're intelligent enough to do that. Commas aren't free you know ...
- dfc 15y agoNo worries. I was not trying to be a jerk, I really did not understand how the two parts of the sentences worked together.

- 0x0x0x 15y agoThanks. That's exactly what my use of "basically" meant and FFS since this is HN I will be sure to note that in the future. :)
