“Cops Need a Search Warrant For Your Car? Nope”

The pesky Constitution, try as it might, is no match for activist judges and certain law enforcement types.  At least, those in Pennsylvania.  To wit: Local police and legal professionals are calling the opinion “big news.” “This is a significant change in long-standing Pennsylvania criminal law, and it is a good one,” Lancaster County District Attorney Craig Stedman said Wednesday afternoon. Under prior law, an officer who smells marijuana inside

“Gun Control Utopia Chicago: More Than 40 People Shot, 5 Killed Over Weekend”

Woman killed while heading home from an anti-violence event among the victims. (h/t Weasel Zippers) Sometimes irony just sucks ass. Tie this together with the FEDEX shooting — the building featured a prominent placard showing that firearms were not permitted on the premises, something the shooter either inadvertently overlooked or, to the more cynical, used to his advantage — and what you have is yet further evidence that the anti-gun

“John Boehner to establish select committee to investigate Benghazi”

See?  I knew something positive would come out of Boehner’s taped comments mocking conservatives who disagreed with him on the prioritizing of “comprehensive immigration reform” as cowards.  Namely, backlash.  Which led Boehner to buckle and deal — even though he’s done so two years too late.  Because, well, dude.  Washington Examiner: House Speaker John Boehner, R-Ohio, has decided to establish a special select committee to investigate the Sept. 11, 2012,

red pills behind the sofa cushions (procatalepsis, 4)

Readying oneself for the fall of an empire is no easy feat, particularly when you’re surrounded by the constant told-you-sos of strung out ex-agency beets (who weren’t nearly as paranoid as I’d once thought them to be) and a Sea Monkey King who it turns out was correct when he told us that he could do a better job of running the US government than “some Manchurian douche who fluffs

Now that we know that the Benghazi cover-up was planned…

…do you think maybe we can criticize the President without being called racist conspiracy mongers? I know, I know.  I kid! Lookit: Obama, Clinton, et al., found a fall guy and allowed him to be arrested and imprisoned for a year — essentially putting a lifetime target on his back — knowing full well that he had no part in what took place in Benghazi. We know now that the

New and improved May fundraiser: it’s not just for January, February, March, and April anymore! [sticky; new posts below; THURSDAY UPDATE]

I have to take Tanner for a haircut, then my wife and I are going to grab some lunch. None of which concerns you — or interests many of you in the slightest — but I share because I care. And that used to mean something. Thursday update:  Another not-terribly-successful fundraising drive comes to an end today. I appreciate greatly all of you who contributed.  Times are lean, I realize. 

“Campaign Launched Against RI Constitutional Convention”

From GoLocalProv: Citizens for Responsible Government, a coalition of Rhode Island individuals and organizations including the AFL-CIO, has launched a campaign to defeat a potential Constitutional Convention in the Ocean State. “A Constitutional Convention is a significant threat to our civil rights,” stated coalition spokesman Pablo Rodriguez, who is also President of Latino Public Radio. “Across the country, issues like affirmative action, reproductive rights, gay rights, worker rights, senior citizen
