Bloggers, tweeters and t-shrit wearers targeted. What country has just sentenced a man to eight months in prison
for wearing an anti-police t-shirt, and another man to three months
in prison for telling an “abhorrent” joke on Facebook? Iran,
perhaps? China? No, it’s Britain. Something has gone horribly wrong in Britain in ... MORE

MOREJohn Aglialoro: Rand's Fight For The Rational Mind

John Stossel: Bad Rules
Licensing individual liberty. We take free speech for granted in America, unlike elsewhere. The
furor over that anti-Muslim video is the latest reminder of that. But freedom of speech is never safe, even here. Many colleges now
impose "civility codes." Civility is nice, but enforcing a "civility
rule" against offensive speech would put an end to lots ... MOREJohn Whitehead: Breeding Grounds For Compliant Citizens

seen whether she ever will again. For the crime of going to school
-- and blogging about it -- she was shot in the head by a Taliban
assassin while in her school bus. Yousafzai, now 14, knew the risk she was taking when at the age
of 11 and ... MOREThomas Sowell: Random Thoughts On The Passing Scene
Observations from a keen eye. Not since the days of slavery have there been so many people who feel entitled to what other people have produced as there are in the modern welfare state, whether in Western Europe or on this side of the Atlantic.
