Does political correctness trump justice? There seems to be a full-court press on to get colleges to "do something" about rape on campus.

Another round of hope and change, anyone? The sheer egotism in big government mouthpieces claiming that they can rescue mankind from all the natural threats which afflict us should be laughable. And make no mistake -- for many of us, it is. For my money, the humor in such egotism doesn’t get any more obvious than then-governor ... MOREAndrew Napolitano: Finding The Truth At Benghazi
