Are all environmentalists misanthropic, homicidal maniacs? There have been more than a few eco-terrorists who have killed and terrorized. Ted Kaczynski, the Unabomber, is one such example. But you would right is saying that such a suggestion is insane. The US has a population of 330 million people. With a population that large, you are [...]
Shooting the bull
Progressives are outraged by the recent rash of shootings. Outrage is absolutely the right response. Violence is never, ever a good thing. Senseless violence of the type we saw last weekend is particularly outrageous, and it deserves our scorn. But the target of the outrage isn't the shooters. Nor is the target of outrage the [...]

Ballot harvesting
There is little opportunity for urban-dwelling progressives to engage in horticultural activity. To compensate for this, each fall, at election time, many of them harvest ballots. Politics is a quasi-religion for progressives and voting is like a sacrament to them. Hence their get-out-the-vote crusades. They are especially keen to make casting a ballot as easy [...]
