Does the solid Earth + the oceans stop spinning?

How many of you have had your parental rights taken away because of lies and no truth whatsoever, and did you prove the lies that were told about you to be false either through drug testing or another way, but still had your rights taken?

If the whole Earth stops by magic, with the angular momentum just vanishing and then reappearing, then the result is very minor.
