Even a flatworm turns away from pain
And even Oregon can regain a modicum of sanity. On Monday, Oregon’s Democratic Governor Tina Kotek signed into law House Bill 4002, reverting the possession of small amounts of drugs back into a criminal offense and marking the end of a pioneering decriminalization experiment plagued by implementation challenges. To the surprise of absolutely nobody with two functioning …

“…But I know it when I see it.”
Does anyone remember that little phrase? It became notorious in the early Seventies, after the Supreme Court issued a ruling in a pornography case. The original speaker was Associate Justice Potter Stewart. The stimulus, of course, was the question “What is pornography?” The Court did not issue a definition. Instead, the ruling centered …

How to lose the support of the average Joe Sixpack.
So, when an Amazon driver has to defend himself from one of Joe Biden’s illegal aliens who was also masturbating in public, you would expect the cops to grab the guy who was pulling his pud on the sidewalk. Yeah, not so much. Police arrested Abu and charged him with third-degree assault after Sanchez claimed that Abu …

Delusions And Stability
Delusions are often functional. A mother’s opinions about her children’s beauty, intelligence, goodness, et cetera ad nauseam, keep her from drowning them at birth. — Robert A. Heinlein I’m still on the mend, but a little better, thanks for asking. Maybe I’ll be able to speak audibly by New Year’s Day. It’s ambitious, …

The Unreasonable
Clever title, eh? Gets the brain churning, doesn’t it? “The unreasonable who?” “The unreasonable what?” “Porretto’s playing games again, isn’t he?” (“Again,” you say? When did I stop?) Well, it’s all in a day’s work here at the Fortress of Crankitude, Long Island’s premier shrine to self-indulgent snark over too many glasses …

Once again, we all knew the narrative was garbage
Saint George Floyd of Fentanyl wasn’t killed by the cops, and the four police officers that are currently in jail for his death were wrongly convicted for political reasons. A former Hennepin County, Minnesota, prosecutor is suing her employer, alleging that she was a victim of sex discrimination and retaliation. That’s par for the course. …

Percentages And Concentrations
There have been several posts by other bloggers that address what happens to a society when Muslims reach various percentages of the population. History confirms the dangers such accumulations of Muslims present to a previously free and peaceful society. Moreover, Muslims’ reproduction rate far exceeds that of Western non-Muslim whites, which puts time on …

Crime And The Individual Perspective
John Hinderaker asks in a plaintive tone: Is Crime Still Illegal? All of these descriptions are somewhat sanitized. We have seen the videos: gangs of twenty or more criminals will descend on a store, often blocking the street in front of the store with their vehicles, and rampage through the establishment stealing whatever …

The Subjugated City
Time was, New York City was the nation’s commercial Mecca. Businesses fought to establish themselves there. Real estate there was considered the most prestigious on Earth. The city’s harbors, its status as the Eastern Seaboard’s transportation and communications hub, and its extraordinary cultural vitality were lures that few firms could resist. Time was. …

The Explosion Of Criminality
I know of two ways to create a crime wave: Outlaw many ordinary actions and undertakings; Refrain from prosecuting and punishing crimes already on the books. Can anyone suggest a third? Today, John Hinderaker comments on the crime explosion in Minnesota, with emphasis on a specific recent event: Derrick Thompson was …

The Low-Trust Society: A Case Study
I snagged the graphic below from Ace of Spades HQ. The story it tells, though four and a half years old, is an important one. It’s easy merely to allow yourself to be appalled and then pass on to other things. In today’s sociopolitical environment, that’s no longer wise. Anyone could be caught in …

Some Vigilance Committees Are Pretty Small
Yet they can still be effective: A Dollar General store in California could be on the hook for a substantial sum of money after an employee appears to have flouted the state’s monopoly on violence by going after an accused shoplifter on her own – and hitting him with her car. Remember …

Undoing The “Not Done”
I hope John Ross, the author of Unintended Consequences, won’t mind the following lengthy excerpt from his book: Joe Columbo was a well-guarded organized crime boss who operated in New York in the ’60s and ’70s. In 1972, a mob rival paid someone to murder Columbo during a New York parade. Knowing that …

Dog Bites Man?
