by Andrew Napolitano. The Supreme Court overlooks the natural and fundamental freedom to associate.

MORERestraining Arizona, Unleashing The President

MORERetaining Harder Than Declaring Our Independence
by Jackie Gingrich Cushman. We declared our independence from Great Britain 236 years ago next week. It was a declaration long in coming, brought about by the overreaching rule of King George III and Britain's insistence on taxation without representation.

The distinction between cosmic justice & social justice. This is Part III in a series. Part I can be found here. Part II can be found here.

The explosion in ... MORE

The people's last stand against tyranny: just say no. Writing for Hot Air’s Green Room last week, Patrick Ishmael declared that nullification was unconstitutional and cited a number of columns from organizations such as The Heartlander and The Heritage Foundation as proof. Ishmael’s post was mostly a continuation of a discussion, as he calls it, ... MORECops Claim That Face-Chewer Was On Bath Salts A Lie
Another drug warrior scapegoats marijuana as the culprit. Lab tests detected only marijuana in the system of a Florida man shot while chewing on another man's face, the medical examiner said Wednesday, ruling out other street drugs including the components typically found in the stimulants known as "bath salts."
