Peruta
26 June 17 Supremes: It is truly said: âWhere you stand depends on where you sit!â Today, our Supreme Court cynically declined to hear the Peruta V CA Case. Justices Thomas and Gorsuch magnificently dissented! I canât put it more eloquently: âThe Constitution does not rank certain rights above others, and I do not think […]
Less than optimal!

What inscrutable card shall ye throw next upon the soft felt of our days?â Colson Whitehead Quoting Musashi, we often warn our students of the hazards associated with having âfavorite weapons.â Because we know, as Musashi did, that a âfavorite weaponâ (or its curious, but consistent, absence) will invariably become a […]

We’ve Grown Weary…

No One’s Slaves!

Political Violence
14 June 17 Aftermath: Now, I will comment on motive: Sure enough, this morningâs shooting perpetrator (now deceased) was a certified âSandernista.â And, leftist blogs have all day long sung his praises and are openly disappointed that he had not murdered more Republicans. I wish I were surprised! I wonder if Democrat politicians actually believed […]
