Carlos Miller: Cops Shoot And Kill Man With Hands Up
What a citizen's cell phone camera revealed. An Arizona deputy shot and killed a man claiming he was reaching for a gun, but a cell phone video shows the man had raised his hands in the air. However, Pinal County Sheriff Paul Babeu insists the man should have been killed much earlier because he wasn’t complying with their orders. ... MOREObamaCare Creates New Class Of Free Riders
by Rituparna Basu and Yaron Brook. Welcome to Obamacare, land of skyrocketing premiums, cancelled insurance policies, and a website that is exhibit A of government incompetence. If Republicans are serious about stopping this destructive law, they must criticize more than its rollout troubles, which are fixable. They must expose the ... MOREJeff Deist: Whatever Happened To Peace Officers?
We want Andy Taylor, we get the terminator. Today when we use the term peace officer, it sounds antiquated and outdated. I’m sure most people in the room under 40 have never heard the term actually used by anyone; we might as well be talking about buggy whips or floppy disks. But in the 1800s and really through the 1960s, the term ... MORE
Andrew Napolitano: President Obama's NSA Placebo
A thinly disguised effort to change the subject. When President Obama chose a Friday before a three-day holiday weekend to address a matter as profound as the NSA spying scandal, I suspected he would raise issues that he hoped the media would ignore. That's because the Reagan White House did a study in the early 1980s and ... MOREAshby Jones: Another Path To 'Not Guilty'
Nick Gillespie: Obama's Last Chance For A Legacy
Ending the war on pot. Obama says he doesn’t want to end up a forgotten, no-name president. His refreshingly frank comments on marijuana legalization suggest a big way he could make that happen. David Remnick’s new, long profile of President Barack Obama in The New Yorker
is filled with all sorts of revelatory tidbits, none more ... MORESheldon Richman: The Surveillance State Lives
The law cannot constrain those who interpret it. President Obama has some nerve. He opened his speech on
NSA spying by likening his surveillance regime to Paul Revere and
the Sons of Liberty. How insulting! They were helping people resist
government tyranny, and the British spied on them to put down the
coming rebellion. ... MOREJohn Stossel: Chill Out About Global Warming
Love nature but hate the tyranny of bureaucrats' rules. We already waste billions on pointless gestures that make people think we're addressing global warming, but the earth doesn't notice or care. What exactly is "global warming" anyway? That's really four questions: 1. Is the globe warming? Probably. Global temperatures have risen. ... MOREThomas Sowell: Fact-Free Liberals
Read all four parts of this essay! Someone summarized Barack Obama in three words — "educated," "smart"
and "ignorant." Unfortunately, those same three words would describe all
too many of the people who come out of our most prestigious colleges
and universities today. President Obama seems completely ... MOREScott Shackford: Asset Forfeiture Runs Wild
Case of the coked-up cops. Asset forfeiture laws give police officers an incentive to bust people with property to seize. But few have taken this practice as far as the police of Sunrise, Florida, who posed as cocaine suppliers to lure targets into town. According to the Broward County Sun Sentinel, which exposed the strategy in October, ... MOREThe Best Defense Your Money Can’t Buy
by Jacob Sullum. Although the federal government accuses Kerri and Brian Kaley of trafficking in stolen medical devices, it has been unable to identify any victims of this alleged criminal scheme. That has not stopped the Justice Department from freezing the assets they need to defend themselves. The Supreme Court is now considering ... MOREThe Minimum Wage Impedes Economic Progress
by Mark Hendrickson. Raising the minimum wage is once again a key component of the Democrats’ election-year strategy. Indeed, the Democrats have momentum on their side. According to a recent report in The Christian Science Monitor, 14 states raised their legal minimum wage last year. The economic arguments pro and con are familiar. ... MORE
