by William A Levinson. The Democratic Party believes that it owns the African-American vote, and it also looks to women for much of its support. This support requires serious reconsideration. The Colorado Democratic Party, as represented by State Rep. Joe Salazar, has said openly that women are too mentally unstable to handle firearms ... MOREWhy Blacks And Women Should Not Have Guns

MOREJ Sullum: Where Does A Cop With An 80-lb Dog Search?
Answer: Anywhere he wants. Imagine that a police officer, after taking it upon himself to search someone's car, is asked to explain why he thought he would find contraband there. "A little birdie told me," he replies. Most judges would react with appropriate skepticism to such a claim. But substitute "a big dog" for "a little birdie," and you've ... MORE
America In Denial As Fiscal Tsunami Appoaches
by Gene Healy. It's hard to hear yourself think over all the caterwauling on Capitol Hill about the looming sequestration "crisis." For opponents of the spending cuts—at $85 billion, 2.3 percent of the $3.6 trillion federal budget—the rallying cry is half Lord Keynes, half St. Augustine: "Grant me chastity and continence—but not yet." But the time for a little ... MORECop Recorded Punching Woman In Face Found Not Guilty
Judge declares he meant no harm. Despite being caught on video violently punching a small woman in the face, police officer Jonathan Josey was found not guilty by Philadelphia Municipal Judge Patrick Dugan in a nonjury trial after telling the judge he didn't mean to punch the woman in the face, we was only trying to knock a beer out of her hand. ... MOREJeffrey Lord: Abolish The Department Of Education
Do it for the children. The Washington Post was alarmed. And House Republicans seem to be asleep. On Monday’s front page was the latest Obama horror story of what lay ahead for the fifty states if the sequester went into effect. Wrote the Post: The White House on Sunday detailed how the deep spending cuts set to begin this week would affect ... MOREIBD: EPA Ups Mandate For Nonexistent Fuels
Bureaucrats impose more pain at the pump. In yet another green folly, the lawless Environmental Protection Agency continues to fine gasoline producers for not using cellulosic biofuels in quantities that don't exist, making only more pain at the pump. Last month, a federal court dealt a serious blow to the Environmental Protection Agency's renewable ... MOREJohn Stossel: Libertarian's Awkward Bedfellows
Limited government advocates are not morally suspect. Last week, Conservative pundit Ann Coulter told me and a thousand young libertarians that we libertarians are puss- -- well, she used slang for a female body part. We were in Washington, D.C., at the Students for Liberty conference, taping my TV show, and she didn't like my questions ... MOREThomas Sowell - Shepherds And Sheep
Sheep are easily led astray. John Stuart Mill's classic essay "On Liberty" gives reasons why some
people should not be taking over other people's decisions about their
own lives. But Professor Cass Sunstein of Harvard has given reasons to
the contrary. He cites research showing "that people make a lot of
mistakes, and that those mistakes can prove ... MOREShawn Mitchell: On Disarming American Women
Whistle while your raped. Freshman lawmaker Joe Salazar, (D. Thornton) became an embarrassing distraction for the liberal juggernaut in Colorado last week when he blurted out what he really thinks of the Second Amendment, the right of self defense, and the faculties of women in peril. Hint: His views are appalling. As backlash developed, Salazar ... MOREPhil Kerpen: Government Spending Hurts People
The money comes out of their hides. We should not accept the statist premise that most government spending helps people. Government spending is not just wasteful or inefficient, but all too often serves to crush the private economy and individual freedom. In the coming days the media will provide a constant stream of purported victims of ... MOREDan Dagget: Using Gun Violence To Get Elected
Why liberals have no interest in real solutions. The most frustrating aspect of the continuing verbal marathon about guns and gun control is that no one is talking about the real cause of our continuing problem with mass, meaningless murder. That means no one is talking about real solutions that will have real results. Instead, we are ... MORE
