Is A Man’s Home His Castle? Not in Indiana!

Friday, May 13th, 2011

Indiana's Supreme Court has ruled that citizens may not resist unlawful police entry into their homes.  That's right - the police can come through Hoosier front doors without any reason whatsoever, and to resist is now unlawful.  This is un-American.  I hope that all of you putative Mitch Daniels supporters ...

Baskerville Hounds Amnesty International

Tuesday, August 3rd, 2010

Dr. Stephen Baskerville, a leading voice in the father's rights movement, is out with his latest article, posted on lewrockwell.com, regarding human rights abuse in Sweden.  There, as here, men in custody or divorce battles hold few, if any, cards, and are subject to spurious claims of domestic violence as a ...

The New Robber Barons

Sunday, June 20th, 2010

Many of learned about the 'robber barons' of medieval times, who would waylay travelers passing by their castles for taxes, tribute or plunder [the differences are in the eyes of the beholder] before letting them go on their way.  The term resurfaced again in our 19th century, as a reference ...

Where is “Fairness” for Fathers?

Monday, September 21st, 2009

As with any situation in life, one expects justice and fairness as well as equal protection under the law.  This devastating case in Indiana shows the capricious nature of "civil" courts and laws.  From child custody cases to "civil" cases where people are subject to double jeopardy after a criminal ...

Idiots in the Snow

Tuesday, June 30th, 2009

I have a hard time understanding why people who would live in Minnesota choose to.  It is becoming clearer however.  Now, apologies to Minnesotans, but it is one of those "great place to visit (in summer) but wouldn't live there" States.The apparent election won (stolen?) by Al Franken (Stuart Smalley) ...

The Joes Win One

Monday, June 29th, 2009

     Judge Sotomayor has been rebuked by the one branch of government not yet under radical leftist control, and ironically, it is the one to which she represents - the judiciary - and to whose highest tribunal, the Supreme Court, stands in nomination to join.  That she would side with ...

I didn’t own you…

Friday, June 19th, 2009

...so I don't owe you.  Include me out of the Senate's craven, pathetic 'apology' for slavery.  No one alive in a half-century can have any claim to have been an actor on either side of the slavery issue.  This is the kind of foolish, self-loathing nonsense that the '60s radical, ...

The Archie Bunker Pick?

Tuesday, May 26th, 2009

   Judge Sotomayor deserves to be judged 9n o pun intended) on her full resume, and not just on random quotes and factiods.  Nonetheless, i find it troubling to read things like this:  'I would hope that a wise Latina woman with the richness of her experience would more often ...

Freedom and two 13 year olds

Friday, May 22nd, 2009

Part of the challenge to Freedom is equal protection under and application of the law.  2 recent examples shine a light on this.  Consider two 13 year old boys.  One is to be "charged as an adult" in the murder of his little brother and wounding of his mother.  The ...

What is a Hate Crime

Thursday, May 21st, 2009

Dave Welch provides the most effective and concise objection to "Hate Crimes Legislation" that I have seen.  The logic of this simple observation is unassailable.  "Hate crimes legislation, which assigns different levels of punishment for the same crime, is a perversion of equal justice on its face."
