Sorry, when I said "truly", I was thinking of "universally accepted as".

Yeah, this makes me think of duels in history. The government should have paperwork you can sign to legally duel with someone, if the person agrees also. (just jokin') :tongue2:nismaratwork said:Any law that stops me from legally killing another person who annoys me, and no, I'm not joking.

The process for enacting a new law typically involves several steps. First, a bill is introduced in either the House of Representatives or the Senate. The bill then goes through a series of committee hearings and revisions before being voted on by the full chamber. If the bill passes in one chamber, it then goes to the other chamber for consideration. If both chambers pass the bill, it is sent to the President for approval.
A law can be repealed through a similar process to enacting a new law. A bill must be introduced and passed by both chambers of Congress, and then signed by the President. However, in some cases, a law can also be repealed through a process called "judicial review," where the Supreme Court declares a law to be unconstitutional.
Yes, a law can be changed after it has been enacted. This is typically done through the amendment process, where a new bill is introduced and passed by both chambers of Congress, and then signed by the President. Alternatively, the Supreme Court can also interpret a law in a different way, effectively changing its meaning.
Laws can differ between states because each state has its own legislative body that is responsible for creating and passing laws. This means that while some laws may be similar across states, there can also be significant differences. Additionally, states have the power to create laws that are specific to their own needs and circumstances.
Yes, citizens can propose new laws through a process called "ballot initiatives." This involves collecting a certain number of signatures on a petition to get a proposed law on the ballot for a public vote. However, not all states allow for ballot initiatives, and the process can vary between states.
