If justice ever does make a return, this government is provoking the world's record of wrongful imprisonment lawsuit payouts. He deserves at least ~~some of~~ Leon's billions in reimbursement for this bullshit.

Egyptians stacked blocks of stone to build the pyramids.

Roman concrete was impressively strong.

Neither of them had steel-reinforced concrete.

Neither did Gothic cathedrals, which is why they needed flying buttresses.

Reinforced concrete as we know it today is a 19th century innovation, as I understand it.
