• Commented on Bill Maher: Birthers must be stopped
  The problem is the MSM not the birthers. Every time another lunatic gets their 15 minutes that's 15 minutes that isn't devoted to honest reporting and analysis. News orgs should be informing the public, not vying for ratings and ad...
• Commented on Father's day photo-shoot ends with cops pointing guns, photographer face down on tarmac
  When will we come to our senses and put a stop to this? I remember a time when a police officer would have said something like, "Sir, you need to move back," before drawing a gun. Every time a story...
• Commented on British cops deliver Catch 22 to photographers: you're not allowed to know which areas you're not allowed to photograph
  Since looking at a sensitive area long enough and then running away to sketch it from memory is basically the same as taking a photo, it seems obvious that all inhabitants and visitors to London should be blinded so that...

• Commented on HOWTO protect your online privacy now that the Senate repealed the Fourth Amendment?
  I find it naive in the extreme that anyone can believe that honest, law-abiding citizens have nothing to fear from a government that acts above the law. Have we so soon forgotten the excesses of Hoover, McCarthy and Nixon? The...
• Commented on Teen in skimpy dress denied prom entrance
