Conservatives deal with facts and reach conclusions; liberals have conclusions and sell them as facts.
By shifting money from policing to encouraging abortions, Austin is fulfilling the eugenicists’ dream of a world in which no criminals exist. The Minority Report was a 2002 movie (based upon a Philip K. Dick short story). The premise was that law enforcement had moved to a point at which

We are in the 7th decade of a slo-mo socialist revolution in America, but there are signs it will be followed by a successful Second American Revolution. One of my favorite books is Daddy-Long-Legs, an epistolary novel that Jean Webster wrote in 1912. The letter writer is Judy Abbott, a

The eugenics debate from a century ago bears striking similarities to the climate change debate today, while Leftists try to bring racism to old statuary. I’ve actually been doing paid legal work all day long, with a short deadline, which makes blogging difficult if not impossible. Nevertheless, I wanted to

Yes, it’s tax day, and what better day could there be to talk about all the distressing, expensive, and scary foolishness in the world? Ripping off taxpayers with climate change craziness. Today has been a “suffer the climate change” day for me, so it’s appropriate to open with a riff

David Swindle passes on an article about the fact that well-known “comedienne” Sarah Silverman (I use the scare quotes because I don’t think she’s funny) announced recently that she

In other words, his 1971 publication calling for mass sterilization was not simply a youthful fling with a bad idea. As Michelle Malkin details, he still clings to those ideas and only recently cited as his intellectual mentor
Continue readingIf you read Michelle Malkin, you already know about Zombie’s post exposing the unrepentant eugenicist past of John Holdren, Obama’s science czar. Writing in the early 1970s, when the trendy concern was the population explosion (promising every a brutish Malthusian future), Holdren eagerly espoused a world order with forced abortions;

There was a lot of eugenics-type talk about the
