Imagine Rodney King in the YouTube era. The beating captured on a camcorder in 1991 was seen on at least 240 TV stations around the world, impressive for pre-digital days, and served notice on law enforcement officers that cameras could capture them at their best — and worst.

You didn't think they'd stop at seat belt laws, did you? Mandatory buckle-up laws set the precedent: Even your own body in your own car is no longer your own personal space. Here's how it works: The government decides that whatever it is you're doing is "unsafe" -- not specifically in your case, just generally -- maybe, might be, could be -- then asserts the legal ... MORERougeGovernment: Is America Crazy Or Is Government?

Largely an outgrowth of "stop and frisk" programs. Thirty-five years ago, New York's legislature decriminalized marijuana possession.

Under the Marijuana Reform Act ... MOREJosh Peterson: Democrats To Continue Internet Assault

There's only one way government helps. In the Declaration of Independence, Thomas Jefferson called the pursuit of happiness an unalienable right. This was a radical idea.
