Because let’s just say aloud here what everybody’s thinking: the Constitution, written by patriarchal while slave-owners poisoned by Christianity, is, like, over a hundred years old. Meaning it’s time we did some “progressive” adjusting to things like the First Amendment, which — looked at properly, is really just a bit of language justifying hate. Just ask Chick-fil-A. Tolerance, to progressives, is the enforcement of government-approved speech. Hate, on other hand,

The recent spate of shootings (and attendant manufactured “fear” over “assault weapons” and “high-capacity mags” promoted by the left and the media), the UN small arms treaty rumblings, Obama’s charge the we search our souls with respect to gun violence, Schumer’s attempt to plant gun control measures in various forms of legislation — all of this conspired to convince me I probably shouldn’t wait to pick up the SCAR Heavy.

One of these days, they’ll get to blame a TEA Party conservative for something. Until then, they’ll just keep throwing shit against the wall to see if it sticks — and mistakes like this one won’t shame them because they can’t be shamed.

Yes, our government is a deviant subculture. But no, we needn’t all be looking 0ut for the “common good.”   In fact, it’s when we act out of self-interest that we tend to most productive, most happy, and create the most wealth — thereby reinforcing a system for common good, one that works because it promotes  individual autonomy and relies on spontaneous order.  Which is why we don’t need a better

At least, not beyond what he recognized was the shoddy science behind the “hockey stick,” which bad science he likely suspected would be shown as such and eventually hurt the environmentalist cause.  But a warming “skeptic”?  Hardly.  Muller, Technology Review, 2004: If you are concerned about global warming (as I am) and think that human-created carbon dioxide may contribute (as I do), then you still should agree that we are

Which, naturally, means that the Fed is both inept and — now, thanks to the study results — demonstrably racist, to boot.
