"One should either write ruthlessly what one believes to be the truth, or else shut up." — Arthur Koestler

Arithmetic vs. Liberal Narrative: Who Is Killing ‘Transgender Women of Color’?

One of the difficulties of arguing with liberals is that so many of them seem unable to grasp basic concepts like per capita and correlation. Any attempt to discuss crime and law enforcement will inevitably devolve into a shouting match because liberals are so prejudiced in favor of leniency — the “turn-’em-loose” school of social […]

Because You Asked: ‘What in the Actual Hell is Happening in North Carolina?’

The headline question was asked in the wake of this: The Charlotte-Mecklenburg Police Department is searching for the woman who stabbed a pregnant woman outside the Harris Teeter [grocery store]. It happened on Wednesday [March 18] around 11 a.m. in the Cotswold Village Shopping Center. The 38-year-old pregnant woman told Channel 9 she was getting […]

Scandal-Plagued Former FBI Chief Robert Mueller Dies in Disagrace at Age 81

De mortuis nil nisi bonum is always wise policy, which Democrats never follow whenever one of their enemies die. Democrats hate without apology, but become indignant if Republicans return the favor. Readers might notice that the headline of this obituary is perhaps not a model of journalistic objectivity, but that’s the whole point. You see, […]

D.E.I. + A.I. = O.M.G.!

One of my sons is a lawyer, and the youngest is currently a first-year law student, and the stories they tell me about the use of AI (artificial intelligence) by both law students and practicing lawyers are disturbing. You may think “fake news” is bad, but fake law is much worse. Last year, I wrote […]

‘Thou Shalt Not Bear False Witness Against Thy Neighbour’ (Exodus 12:16)

Not every day I quote the King James Bible in a headline, but it seems that some people don’t understand why the Ninth Commandment is so important that God felt the need to include it in the Top Ten. Making false accusations is both a sin and a crime, and it can also be a […]

Violence Against Women Update

Wow, has it been nearly two years since I used that headline? I created the Violence Against Women category specifically for the kind of “violence against women that feminists will ignore.” You can call it “intersectionality” or just call it hypocrisy, but if you pay attention a while, you’ll notice that there seems to be […]

ISLAMIC TERRORISM IN TEXAS? UPDATE: ‘Property of Allah’ Shirt

Please note the question mark in the headline, because officials are not saying that it definitely is terrorism, but it kind of looks like it: The Federal Bureau of Investigation says it has discovered evidence at the scene of the mass shooting at a popular Austin nightclub that indicates a potential nexus to terrorism. During […]

An Odd Sequel to the Bubba/‘Brittni’ Saga

It’s been more than two years and most readers have probably forgotten the disturbing story of the late Fred “Bubba” Copeland: Copeland was the mayor of Smiths Station, a town of less than 7,000 people in Lee County, Alabama. He was also a freakazoid, secretly pursuing transgender fantasies that he posted online using a persona […]
