Libraries buy licenses to do so from the publishers, but that’s unrelated to what I said.
I’m saying the judge found that IA violated its own CDL, so even if its interpretation of the law was correct, the IA would still be liable.

Libraries do not make unlimited copies of books so everyone can check it out at the same time without wait. Obviously the EFF doesn’t want to admit its client did that because it destroys their case, but that’s what the judge found the IA stupidly did.
More it still exists because they were literally incapable of replacing it. They weren’t good quality; people just didn’t have any other options. I’m sure we can make our cars last just as long if we clamp the screws tighter and ensure no one can afford to buy a new car.
Disinfectant ≠ pesticide
Obviously every COVID policy everywhere is heavily criticized after the fact by someone, but that likely saved lives.
It depends on what you call “itty bitty” and “wealth”. Saving $1,000/month is doable for many people and will make you a millionaire by retirement age, even adjusting for inflation.
It’s literally a victimless crime committed unintentionally. Most people oppose 12-year prison sentences for harmless accidents.
Nah, it happens with Democrats just as much:

I think you underestimate just how much tribalism there is in politics.
Everything has some rate of death. That doesn’t make it reckless. Are you saying anyone who owns another dog or who rides a bikes or who has a tree in his yard or who cooks food or who performs surgery which leads to someone’s death should also get [5–10 years in prison] no matter what?
Drunk driving has an incomparably higher fatality rate though. (Like 1 in 600 vs pits’ 1 in 500,000)
And you can’t be charged with murder for drunk driving. That’s reckless homicide.
Technically pit bulls are some terrier.
Ohh, my bad. Y’all mean like “given notice”, not like “disturbing the owner”. I read that too fast.
Common law is still valid in every state in the US (except maybe Louisiana), although obviously statutory law usually overrides it. You’re right that there’s no federal common law since Erie v. Tompkins though.
And I agree with your analysis of that statute. That is interesting too, since my state, Illinois, does not require explicitly being forbidden by the owner. It’s much more in line with the common law idea of trespassing as simply being going somewhere without authority, express or implied.
No, at least common law trespass definitely does not require any noticing. Can you show me any statutory form that does? Obviously crimes are hard to prosecute without witnesses, but very few crimes require someone to notice at the time for it to be a crime.
Edit: I read that too fast.
Yes, many of them committed the crime as well.
You obviously aren’t legally guilty of it until you’ve been charged and convicted, but that doesn’t mean you haven’t actually done it in the meantime.
Trespassing is illegal, even if the law sometimes gives even law-breaking squatters extra rights in evictions.
I’m pretty sure the Supremacy Clause would make it a very bad time for whoever is unconstitutionally trying to block federal agents from protecting the criminal-in-chief.
Columbus was already dead for over hundred years.
My bad, that’s true. I guess it’s that private foundations are more limited in how much you can deduct. To qualify as a public charity, a foundation needs to get at least a third of its funding from the public and have other board members, so they can’t just be self-funded and self-directed. A private foundation still has to be for a qualified charitable purpose but only lets you deduct half as much of contributions.
Foundations aren’t deductible though. You have to give it away to an honest-to-God charity approved by the IRS for it to do anything. And even then, you can never get more money by donating it than you would just keeping the money.
