Youth will lead the way to same sex marriage equality
Same sex marriage bans were overturned in California. Good! It's only a matter of time before the last bands of discrimination are lifted in the U.S. That includes yes, states such as Mississippi and Alabama. This column by Leonard Pitts Jr, from last month, takes... It had to come to this: DC Police Confrontation
Freedom's end At this link is a fabulous photo documentary of the tearing down of Occupy DC at Freedom Plaza, McPherson Square. The photos capture and record some of the agony of the protest and artifacts from the... Internet traffic and media manipulation
I have websites on various servers: MSU, Examiner, NowPublic, and YouTube. I don't measure/record traffic on my MSU sites out of respect for their add-free hosting. You cannot post vulgarity, pornography, or copy-infringing content, as you cannot most places, but I have no... GOP candidate does not believe you deserve personal autonomy
Rick Santorum, Republican presidential candidate and clearly closeted anti-gay zealot, has stated in the past: "This whole idea of personal autonomy, well, I don’t think most conservatives hold that point of view. Some do. They have this idea that... Why sex workers of Nevada support Ron Paul
Prostitution should be legal and regulated. The reason that it is illegal is because of religion. Religious puritan beliefs, the same beliefs that less than 10 years ago made consensual homosexual sex a crime in many states, lead to bad public policy. In regulated brothels in... Wikipedia joins others in shutdown protest against SOPA
No SOPA People want their privacy protected but not at the expense of freedom. This is a delicate balance. In an environment in which many Americans fear intrusiveness of government, it makes sense to be... If I were running for President of the USA... Part 1 of 3
I sometimes wonder what planet or alternate reality our major media is allegedly reporting on. I listen to the debates, hear the polls and watch the news and just shake my head. I believe that by the time you, ... Why do conservatives want us to have as narrow a degree of rights
I was talking with a conservative talk show host and he was of the opinion that while the 9th Amendment does protect rights not enumerated or previously listed in our Constitution's Bill of Rights, the courts don't have the ability nor power to protect them. I had... Where do our rights come from? Not a god
Many Christians believe in absolute truth, and usually they believe their religion is the truth. I doubt Hindus, Muslims, Buddhists, Shintos or a host of other religions believe that Christanity nor any other religion that is not theirs is “the truth” but believe that... Yes to same sex marriage
Some people state that same sex marriages would threaten their right to see these marriages as illegitimate. This is not true. If one wants to disagree with sex marriages, fine. They lose this right to do so no more then those believe that there should be no right of... V for Vendetta-we need more V's.
I really love the movie, V for Vendetta. Not because it is necessary the greatest movie ever made but because of its' central message. Its' theme of opposition to tyranny. Braveheart expressed this same sentiment with the Scots opposing the English invading and... Is there a 3 hour time limit on free speech in Texas?
Is there anything in the First Amendment which only guarantees a right to freedom of speech for three hours or less? See, I bring this up because in Austin, Texas, a protest at the state capital was stopped because there was a three hour time limit on free speech. It was a... Civilization and Freedom
While there are many ways in which civilization can be seen as being destructive of freedom, there are more meaningful ways in which it is conducive to freedom. By civilized I mean this: Being able to work out differences among one another. The more people can do that, the... Libertarianism and Marxism
Like Communism, libertarianism is an ideology that looks good on paper. According to libertarianism, everyone is responsible for themselves and nothing else. The question becomes whether this ideology is as good in practice as it appears in writing. And the verdict for that... Regionalism and Freedom to Roam
Regional autonomy is conducive to liberty, but with a caveat. In a large and diverse country, different people will see things in different ways and will prefer different ways of life. With different regions having different values and different lifestyles, regionalism gives... NowPublic on Facebook
