It's refreshing to see so many bright smart minds
Dude the prosecutor is visually a very good representative of the government. Well-fitted coat and shirt, nice tie -- the way he speaks so rhythmically just gives him such a presence in the room, as if he is the embodiment of the law itself.
5:24 1786 😭😭 Dear God I can only imagine how many cases he had to read to prepare for that argument
Happy the Respondents won best overall. As mentioned by Justice Haris, their task was much more difficult! Though the Oralists put up a good fight, Respondents had to be textualistically precise through the eye of a needle. Their responsibility for burden of proof was much, much higher! Congrats to all. As a Harvard law alumni, it makes me feel oh-so good to see fellow Harvard students argue this precisely!
What an incredible showcase of skill and boldness. This particular competition really had me hooked!
He argued better than some lawyers in that appeared in the SC
Justice Brown Jackson?! What an honor to stand before her!
21:00. her presentation is WONDERFUL from minute 1! She is winning 100%

Finally! [reuploaded to include panel's comments]
Congratulations to everyone especially for your contributions. You will all have great careers..not everyone of course will litigate, and as everyone knows 90-95% of cases are now settled through being mediated, arbitrated, or negotiated, but if that is the choice everyone will do well. I am doing the UBE bar exam with all of your graduates in July ..let's all pass.

At 7:00 in the video, they reference the Heller case, which is the case that defined the Second Amendment is an individual right for citizens.
23:35 " let me sort that into buckets" JAW DROPPING!!!
always an epic show and performance
i mean they have to have memorize all this right? how are they so eloquent?
The petitioners were extremely complex in their arguments which at times was hard to follow. They missed clear head-scratching arguments from the respondent like "just like the IRS offers a pathway for non-citizens to pay taxes without facing risk of deportation, we believe the government can do the same to own a firearm." the difference is that paying taxes is an action which proves a demonstrable tie to the political community, by endowing a benefit on that community. owning a gun does not do these things, rather it potentially creates a larger risk to the community. all citizens are required to pay taxes, but not all citizens are required to buy a gun.
