“No ex post facto laws” We’ll see what happens next.
That is may take on it too. But you wouldn’t believe how many people come out of the digital walls here to disagree with me.
These limitations laws are just as much a law as any other law. Then there are those here who think that ex-post facto only applies to the federal government. They can’t even think about what would happen if state and local government could just change any law and apply it to the past. We have some real brainwashed people even here.
The US Constitution is very clear that states cannot pass ex post facto laws. (Art. I, sec. 10, cl. 1). But SCOTUS held way back in 1798 (Calder v. Bull) that only criminal laws can be ex post facto laws; the prohibition does not apply to civil laws.
