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?

Thank you for this knowledge. This will honestly help me eat more chicken instead of less-messy frozen meals.

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.

No, obviously Hamas would not take a deal that is conditional upon [the UN?] removing them from power and holding elections.

Israel is preventing this because, in practice, most people don't want to die in a civil war. This would just lead to better-equipped terrorists killing even more Jews.

Why would that go better in Palestine than in Afghanistan where the people didn't fight the terrorists even after decades of training, arming, and attempted nation-building?
