Patrice Lewis: Hands Off Our Children, Big Brother

Children are the currency of tyrants.      Some friends came to us this week, troubled, to ask our advice. It seems their youngest son came home from school on Monday and asked – begged – to be homeschooled. His request has been a recurrent theme during the past few months, but it took on a particular urgency on Monday when his biology      ... MORE

Climate Bullies, The Surrealists Of Science

Science geeks stand up against global bullies.           Popular perceptions about climate appear surrealistic to me. I'm a seasoned science geek who has been involved in big-time climate modeling, serious mathematics, theory, and more. Popular discussions of this subject have come to look like a Salvador Dali painting, as once noted by     ... MORE

Walter E Williams: Our Fragile Planet

Fred Reed: Notes On The Wussification Of America

It is time to get women out of the schooling of boys.      It is way past time. Women in our feminized classrooms are consigning generations of our sons to years of misery and diminished futures. The evidence is everywhere. Few dare notice it. The feminization is real. More than seventy-five percent of teachers are women; in New York   ... MORE

Walter E Williams: Student Indoctrination

Teaching what to think, not how to think.       The new college academic year has begun, and unfortunately, so has student indoctrination. Let's look at some of it. William Penn, Michigan State University professor of creative writing, greeted his first day of class with an anti-Republican rant. Campus Reform, a project of the       ... MORE

James Allen: The Toy Gun Buyback Program

More politically-correct nitwittery.   Strobridge Elementary School in Hayward, California is hosting a gun buyback program for kids. What a great way to get unwanted guns off the street, not to mention a great way to get guns out of the hands of minors. Guns are not toys, and gun buyback programs can get unwanted guns out of homes and off  ... MORE

Thomas DiLorenzo: The Real LIncoln In His Own Words

What did Abe really believe about racial equality?      After writing two books and dozens of articles, and giving hundreds of radio and television interviews and public presentations on the subject of Lincoln and the political economy of the American "Civil War"over the past fifteen years, I have realized that the only thing the average American   ...

Walter E Williams: Hating America

Indoctrination against liberty.      Brothers Tamerlan and Dzhokhar Tsarnaev, who are accused of setting the bombs that exploded at the Boston Marathon, attended the University of Massachusetts.
