Although the incentives are a bit different when it comes to law enforcement, as in the US it's quite common for those who hold all of the discretionary authority in invoking the criminal justice system - prosecutors and sheriffs and A

Well, in part, it's not a good idea to throw stones at glass houses and if you are a regular reader of Inspectors General's reports on various agencies it quickly becomes evident that the agencies tasked with stopping said crime a

And now he's out. The system's not about preemptively stopping theoretical bad acts per se (although if it actually stops real incoming threats, great), but rather, about being able to evaluate and change course when human fallibi

It's less about the absolute goodness of free speech but rather, a problem of the moderator model that you speak of, that the Constitution is explicitly addressing. There are many forms of speech that are unlawful - child pornography,

We should first of all reframe the notion that China has not engaged in wars of colonization and conquest since its independence. It has attempted and failed in the case of Taiwan, and has also managed to frame all of its armed conflicts, s

Civil asset forfeiture gets a lot of well-deserved comparisons to highwaymen-behavior and outright armed robbery under the shield of law. However, let's get a bit more kafkaesque. Civil Forfeiture is generally connected to at least som

I think it's correct to unlink likelihood of arrest with crimes committed, and plenty of studies have shown biases in that aspect as well as the effects of coercive plea bargaining that inflate crime numbers beyond actual crimes that e

Hey, let's get some interesting humanities papers into the mix, since thanks to COVID I had a lot of extra reading time and "best" is purely subjective: "Erotic Modesty: (Ad)dressing Female Sexuality and Propriety in Ope

Sadly, in theory this is true but over the last 20 years there had been two - yes, TWO - cases where a prosecutor was prosecutoed for misconduct that materially prejudiced the outcome of the trial. Both required more than just Brady but als

Yep, working on the other side (criminal defense) I quickly, within a year or two, found that fraud, or what the laws would consider fraud that could be prosecuted, tend to unravel extremely quickly in most cases, planning is almost always

The federal government forcing a state to enforce a federal statute would definitely violate the 10th Amendment if the state has laws against that. I think most states have building codes irrespective of copyright status. However, the very
