It is. I'll explain why.

Imagine someone so pompous as to present a codified document about cleaning procedures inside a hospital without having any knowledge about the following:

- What actually goes on in the hospital
- What the schedules are
- What allergens are
- What a mop is
- What a floor polisher is
- What dust is

Now, I asked you some questions. Please address them.

The bill isn't a map for a centrally planned existence, so I don't see the connection with your example. It's an authority on the definitions and limits of violence in human interaction. If you have an objection, I'm not seeing it.

To answer your question; yes, I would translate that to mean that someone could use any wolves, riparian zones, water, old growth forests, and such not belonging to others and make it his property. I don't know how that would work; I would leave that to people who are interested.

Well, for starters, there is no unclaimed land left on this Earth, or land that doesn't fall under the jurisdiction of some existing treaties. So it's a fantasy document then, or is this for the Moon, Mars or perhaps Ganymede?

If on the other hand, we wish to assume that it could somehow work on Earth, I then can only assume that you then advocate those that are ignorant to be allowed to mess it up for others. Is that so?

Of course, I'm assuming you're completely cognizant of the relationship between wolves, riparian zones and the water supply. Are you?

Also, I'm assuming you're fully cognizant of the relationship between old growth forests and the material sciences, computer sciences, biological sciences, and soil sustainability, among other relationships? Are you?

To summarize, you're fully aware of the ramifications of what you believe? Correct?
