Was States always legislation oriented? Been reading a little lately on legislation and it makes me wonder if all these viral videos on common law are actually correct as the intimation seems to be that legislation is an import from the lands of Napoleon (or earlier the Romans).
"In his seminal work, The Nature of the Judicial Process, U. S. Supreme Court Justice and former Chief Judge of the New York Court of Appeal Benjamin Nathan Cardozo wrote of the land of mystery when constitution and statute are silent, and the judge must look to the common law for the rule that fits the case. He is the “living oracle of the law” in Blackstone’s vivid phrase."
Are there any lawyers here? Doesn’t this policy open the schools up to massive liability?
Read the PREP Act on legal immunity first:

I believe RICO would be more applicable.

Common law is Anglo-Saxon, i. e., Germanic, and it is of the essence:
"Their voices were even and low.
Their eyes were level and straight.
There was neither sign nor show
When the Saxon began to hate."
Justice will get delivered.
