Woman arrested for "second-degree self abortion"
Comment in News (3 diggs, 0 replies) - on 04/10/2007
Now "self abortion" is a crime? First the religious kooks make doctors scared to perform abortions, then they threw snags in the ability to get morning-after pills, and now they're coming after DIY people. It's sad that this woman felt she had to do it, b … (see comment)

Britian Claims to Have Evidence Iranian Ships Strayed into Iraqi Territory
Comment in News (2 diggs, 0 replies) - on 03/29/2007
The least the US and UK must do is to enforce something equivalent to the old Iraqi no-fly zone. Since the Iranians are having trouble with their GPSes, the US and UK should draw an Iranian no-ship zone two miles closer to Iran than the one that is curren … (see comment)

Muslim Cabbies to Blind People: No Dogs Allowed
Comment in News (1 digg, 0 replies) - on 02/28/2007
First and foremost, the city should not limit the number of cabbie tags. Anyone who is "safe": e.g. qualified driver and not an ex-con (or whatever) should be granted a licence. Secondly, the airport should not allow any cabbie in its official cab-lines i … (see comment)

Censorship at GMU: John Lewis Talk Cancelled
Comment in News (2 diggs, 0 replies) - on 02/28/2007
I wonder why liberals have this image of being in favor of free-speech. From the 1960's campus riots to today's anti-everything violence, liberals have a history of using violence and threats of violence to stifle speech by their opponents. (see comment)

A recent Larry King interview (http://transcripts.cnn.com/TRANSCRIPTS/0701/31/lkl.01.html) is instructive. Of course a CNN interview is not going to dig deep into the evidence, but it is instructive nevertheless to let a layman understand the way in which … (see comment)

The main thing that delayed decent client-side tools on the web was the SUN-JAVA-Microsoft spat. The original intent of Java was to use it for Applet-development. The business problem was that MSFT has ActiveX and MSFT owned the desktop. MSFT would have b … (see comment)

How is it political? ... because law is politics, the notion of rights is politics, the notion of animal rights is politics... When the government acts, it is political. Politics is not fundamentally about inter-party bickering about non-issues; it is abo … (see comment)

Senate Democrats issue veiled threat against ABC for "The Path to 9/11"
Comment in News (0 diggs, 0 replies) - on 09/09/2006
It is legitimate for Reid to object to the content of an ABC show. However, for someone in his position to invoke the 1934 act is an obvious threat. As much as I dislike the FCC's rules censoring certain types of sexual stuff, I can live with that and … (see comment)
