and worse, it technically includes all ports. which could basically mean radii around every international airport.

when i first learned about this, I scared my lawyer girlfriend about it and she helped me look into the actual court cases. they have been somewhat difficult to hold up. usually because LO abuses the rules by not following the three terms listed above. and it still takes getting all the way to Supreme Court which is a massive drain on resources for those typically affected by this.

I think the power grab in https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Marbury_v._Madison did not really benefit the people or the states.

Getting a case before the court takes tons of time and money.

If issues of abuse of power could be resolved by the states, people could see justice faster.
