[01:39] DaemonFC Saying these two words to a law enforcement officer is basically worse than admitting to whatever crime got their attention, as the govt trains EVERYONE on them, even the TSA. [01:48] DaemonFC "In his article entitled The Perfect Crime, law professor Brian C. Kalt argues that there is a fifty-square-mile section of land at the perimeter of Yellowstone National Park in Idaho where federal crimes can be committed but not brought to trial. [01:48] DaemonFC In Kalts hypothetical case, an offender carries out a federal crime spree in the Idaho portion of Yellowstone, during which the offender makes moonshine, poaches wildlife, strangles people, and steals their picnic baskets. Ordinarily, the offender would be looking at several federal felony charges and facing prison. But the government has a problem: the offender has a right to trial by jury. [01:48] DaemonFC As Kalt explains, Article III, Section 2, of the United States Constitution requires a federal criminal trial to be held in the state in which the crime was committed, and the Sixth Amendment requires that the jury be drawn from both the state and the federal district in which the crime was committed. Because the Idaho portion of Yellowstone is technically in the federal district of Wyoming, the Constitution would require a jury to be made up [01:48] DaemonFC of people living in the Idaho portion of Yellowstone National Parkthe only place located in both the state and the district of the offense. At last count, the population of that tract of land is exactly zero. [01:48] DaemonFC Of course, this so-called zone of death isnt an invitation by the federal government. Rather, its what Kalt describes as an example of Congress doing a bad job of drawing its district lines. But without a jury a person cant be tried for a felony, and the Yellowstone Strangler would walk free." [01:49] DaemonFC Sounds like a good place for Alex and Matt to go get some stuff out of their system. [01:50] DaemonFC You can apparently commit any felony (or a misdemeanor punished by MORE than 6 months) you want in this area, and there's no legal way for the federal government to bring it to trial.

Obviously it will always be the preferred choice for passive-aggressive notes around the office, but some federal labeling requirements are simply too strict when it comes to typeface to allow the worlds most hated font. [07:49] DaemonFC Take childrens pajamas, for example. Under 16 C.F.R. 1615.1, tight-fitting pajamas must have a warning label explaining that theyre more flammable when worn loose (even though thats how all the cool babies wear them). (See Fig. 8-1.) For pajamas sold in a package, the warning label must be written in an 11-point Arial or Helvetica font. If sold on hangers, however, the warning tag must be written in 18-point type. Either w [07:49] DaemonFC ay, no Comic Sans." [07:50] DaemonFC "Toys and other childrens products, including pajamas, are considered misbranded hazardous substances if they arent labeled as required by federal regulations. Under the Federal Hazardous Substances Act, introducing mislabeled pajamas into interstate commerce is a prohibited act and selling pajamas labeled in the wrong font could get you ninety days in federal prison. [07:50] DaemonFC THE COMIC SANS LOOPHOLE [07:50] DaemonFC In addition to the labels discussed above, all tight-fitting pajamas must also have a tag advising kids to wear their PJs in a snug-fitting fashion. Notably, this second label doesnt have to be in Arial or Helvetica; the law requires only that a sans-serif font be used. Sadly, Comic Sans meets this requirement."
