Just as Autumn brings “hunting season” for many people, June delivers “SCOTUS Season,” that glorious time when we find out from one branch of the oppressive U.S. government how many more of our rights it will “allow” the other branches to take. And on June 23, SCOTUS didn't disappoint.
In the case of Murr v Wisconsin, five SCOTUS justices saw fit to reinforce the troubling idea that government…
(Full disclosure: the author of this piece was raised in New England, and, as a result, is a Boston Celtics Fan with a capital “F.” As a result, any piece I write about an issue connected to the Detroit Pistons is going to be slightly biased against the team that Celtics radio host Johnny Most famously called “Yellow-Bellied,” a team which once had as its center, Bill Lambier, who, looking back…
One of the most shocking observations to be made about the Georgia 6th District congressional race between victor Karen Handel (R) and vanquished Jon Ossoff (D) is not that Handel came out the winner in what the dinosaur media repeatedly told us was “the most expensive congressional campaign in US history."
Rather, it is the fact that so many reporters and editors saw fit to erroneously depict…
According to Reason, a man named Steve Tennes, who owns Country Mills Farms located twenty miles outside East Lansing, is suing the government of East Lansing for barring him from its city-run Farmers’ Market because of his own personal opinions on marriage.
The city does not like the fact that Tennes, a Catholic who believes that marriage is a religious bond between a man and a woman, hosts…
Don’t say you weren’t warned, Canadians. And, Americans? Don’t say, “It couldn’t happen here."
In Canada, something about which heroic University of Toronto professor Jordan Peterson warned months ago has come to pass. The all-seeing, all-knowing Canadian government just passed C-16. And no, it's not a form of radioactive carbon dating, but rather a bill that, if signed by the governor general…
Public outrage over the tragic deaths at Grenfell Tower in North Kensington, West London, has become a virtually unstoppable force. As of this writing, British officials list 79 as presumed deceased and Prime Minister Theresa May has promised £5,500 per surviving resident as a “downpayment” for the loss of their homes.
But the justified anger increases with each new piece of information the…
Remember that nutty Second Amendment thing?
It reads:
“A well-regulated Militia, being necessary to the security of a free State, the right of the people to keep and bear Arms, shall not be infringed."
And one of the important things that distinguishes the Second Amendment from the First, is that the First specifies that Congress shall make no law infringing the freedom of speech, the…
Don’t let anyone say America hasn’t made progress.
After years of struggle, lives lost in the Revolution fighting to disconnect from the Brits and their heavy-handed taxes, regulations, invasive searches, copious work to add a Bill of Rights to the U.S. Constitution, and all the efforts to try to get the politicians to actually conform to their own so-called “rule book," folks can now braid…
There’s a radical idea that’s been floating around scientific circles for a few centuries. It’s called the scientific method, and consists of politically funded and ideologically motivated university professors and employees manipulating data to conform to their preferred hypotheses. The “results” of their work are then pushed through political channels and supported through further taxation to…
Recall candidate Donald Trump expressing worry about vote fraud?
Or how about President-elect Trump saying there was massive voter fraud in the U.S.?
Remember the almost uniformly leftist pop media criticizing him for his concerns, once more showing us that they are as willing to perpetuate a clear canard as those who applauded the Emperor’s New Clothes? Heck, the old-guard media were so bad,…
