A parental advisory from Lawdog

  Our good friend Lawdog posted this warning on MeWe a couple of days ago.  I re-post it here, with his permission. I don’t know who needs to hear this, but: Anytime someone who is not a blood relative tells your child, “You can’t tell your parents about this” that should be an immediate red… Continue reading A parental advisory from Lawdog

I overheard a table of college kids arguing about gun rights and gun control and it was getting far too emotional so I… Continue reading “I don’t need a gun. You need a gun because of men like me.”

“Bad Science, Bad Faith”

  That’s the title of an article by David Cole, in which he analyzes what’s gone wrong with the “Trust science!” school of governance that we’ve had thrown at us ad nauseam for the past couple of years.  Here’s an excerpt. The public’s relationship with science should, ideally, be governed by what’s known as “good-faith… Continue reading “Bad Science, Bad Faith”
