10 days agoIn any court, there is a principle called ‘Judicial Notice’ (Federal Rule of Evidence 201). It requires the court to accept ‘Common Knowledge’ and ‘Common Sense’ as facts.
I don’t even know how this is applied / applicable.
Common knowledge and facts include global warming needs to be stopped, imperialism is bad, war crimes are crimes, money and power concentration are bad…
No. Half were scientific facts, the other commonly accepted truths. None were simple political opinions.
Unless you count flat earth as a debated public political opinion… Either way that law is not applied. And never will be, simply because law is not defined by logic.
