Ioan Grillo: Hit Mexico's Cartels With Legalization
Death by prohibition. Whenever I’ve interviewed Mexican cartel killers, the aspect that I’ve found most disturbing about them is that they appear to be sane.

Their sanity is ... MOREVIDEO: SWAT Kills Unarmed Man During Drug Raid

Walter E Williams: Liberals, Progressives & Socialists
Where the tiny steps are taking us. In Europe, especially in Germany, hoisting a swastika-emblazoned Nazi flag is a crime.

Here's my question: Why are the horrors of Nazism so well-known and ... MORE130,000 Elderly Brits A Year Killed By Gov't Health Service?

MOREVIDEO: FOX NEWS: The Bad Witness

Deroy Murdock: CAFE Standards Kill
In a crash, MPG is a small consolation. As Washington keeps yanking money from Americans’ wallets, car prices are set to rise beyond the reach of low-income drivers. And from there, things grow deadly. At fault is a regulatory regime called Corporate Average Fuel Economy, commonly called CAFE standards. Congress mandated these rules in 1975, during a ... MORE
Barry Farber: Breitbart's Death Just A Coincidence?
How far-fetched are Breitbart conspiracy rumors? First, let’s nail down the difference between a conspiracy theorist and a broad-minded person.
