The American Thinker – by Salvatore DeGennaro

There is a particular strain of humanity now deeply rooted in Western culture that we can refer to as the Ivory Tower Man. This individual is the product of an entire cultural philosophy. He is the result of several generations that have faced no immediate danger or challenge to life itself; he is the spawn of the Nanny State. The Ivory Tower Man is found throughout all current age groups and academia is especially rife with this character.   Continue reading “The Ivory Tower Man: Why Academia Hates Guns”

WEB Notes: “JAMA” is an “international peer-reviewed general medical journal”. They are admitting the FDA is approving of drugs that are dangerous to the public. Raise your hand if you are surprised. Yet, “experts” will tell you, hey it is “FDA complaint” so that means it is okay. Go ahead take a jab or two of the latest vaccine, the “experts” say it is safe. Yet, we see here even when they claim it is “safe” 30% is not and causes issues. In my opinion when it comes to vaccines you are better off to eat healthy. That means real food and drinks. Not fast food trash, not constant soda intake. Get some exercise and your body will be able to fend off most illness. Relying on a shot is not the answer though that is what the “experts” tell you. Actually, at some places of employment they will make you sign a paper stating as much and if you decline, well you either lose your job or wear a mask during “flu season”. Let freedom ring, let freedom ring.

A Tolerably Accurate but Brief History of Juries, Grand and Otherwise

Someone once wrote that the origins of the jury, grand or otherwise, are “lost in the mists of antiquity.” That being so, this historical summary omits birth dates and birth places. We also omit quotations, footnotes, and a lengthy bibliography. Instead, we offer several leads to consider if you embark on your own research into the provenance of this ancient institution.

Car and Driver – by Pete Bigelow

California state law permits car owners to cover their legally parked cars to protect them against weather and incidental damage. It’d be easy to assume that, because cars can be covered in their entirety, it would also be perfectly okay for motorists to keep only their license plates covered on those same legally parked vehicles. That’s not necessarily the case: Another law prohibits obscuring the license plates of parked cars in California.  Continue reading “In California, a Failed Fight for Car Owners’ Privacy Rights”

Commerce Secretary Wilbur Ross announced Thursday night that the U.S. was greenlighting Chinese chicken imports and getting U.S. beef producers access to China’s nearly 1.4 billion consumers. But the deal is raising concerns among critics who point to China’s long history of food-safety scandals.   Continue reading “Chinese Chicken Is Headed To America, But It’s Really All About The Beef”

An oldies country music radio station east of Tucson serving a rural Arizona area that aired a public service announcement for two years telling people how to hide potential evidence in child pornography cases has stopped doing so after advertisers received threats, the station’s owner said Wednesday

KAVV-FM owner Paul Lotsof said in an interview that he does not like child pornography but created the announcement because he thinks Arizona’s 10-year minimum sentence for each image of child porn is too harsh and costly for taxpayers.

The Kentucky Court of Appeals on Friday sided with Hands On Originals, a Lexington business that refused to print T-shirts in 2012 for Lexington’s Gay and Lesbian Services Organization because the company’s owner said he had religious objections to “pride in being gay.”

In a 2-to-1 decision, a panel of appeals judges affirmed an earlier decision by Fayette Circuit Judge James Ishmael, who struck down a finding by the Lexington Human Rights Commission that the business violated the city’s fairness ordinance.   Continue reading “Appeals court says Hands On Originals did not discriminate against gays”
