Reproductive Health Care
I just do not get it. At least that’s what I keep saying. That isn’t as true as it used to be, but I still don’t thoroughly understand it. We run risk assessments all the time. Most people do a shitty job of it. They conflate probability of occurring with the amount put at risk.…

Why is Maduro Safe?
From Miguel’s substack, with permission. At least from the regular Venezuelans. At this writing, the 2024 presidential elections in Venezuela are in the can and Maduro seems to have “secured” his re-election. Protest about the fraud committed did happen, and the government was swift arresting over 1,500 so far who are slotted to go to…

Communism == Jealousy
If you are reading this, you are part of the 1% richest people in the world. I can confidently say that because there are so many people living in object poverty. Not poverty as defined by the government, but actual poverty. The government likes to define poverty in relative terms. This means that when you…

When the State wants more weasel words
The state is constantly looking for weasel words in Supreme Court opinions to further their arrogant subjugation of their subjects. We see this in how they misconstrued the language of to claim that the Second Amendment only protects militias. We see this when they misconstrue to mean that “presumptively constitutional” means that any infringement is…

Who are you going to believe?
Me or your lying eyes? For the last four years, the only time I heard about Kamala was when she had messed up, again. It is a feature of her actions, she messes up. She was assigned to close the border. Joe used Obama’s term, “Tsar”. As in “Border Tsar.” Today, I’m being told, “Kamala…

Cognitive Dissonance
The theory of cognitive dissonance proposes that people are averse to inconsistencies within their own minds. It offers one explanation for why people sometimes make an effort to adjust their thinking when their own thoughts, words, or behaviors seem to clash with each other. Ok, but what does that mean? More importantly, what does it…

How Dumb Do They Think We Are?
It doesn’t matter what, the anti-gun vultures only have one refrain, “Guns are bad, no guns for you.”

France is Burning
For the last week or more, I’ve been watching Paris burn, and with it, France. This is portrayed as “the far-right” vs. the “left-wing”. Which begs the question, what does it take to be “far-left”? Right-wing and Left-wing come from where the different parties sat in the German parliament. The communists sat on the left,…

Paris is burning?
“That’s a nice business you have here, it would be a shame if anything happened to it.” For years and years, I was told to shut up and sit down when the Supreme Court made a 6-3 or 5-4 decision. My side lost. Just shut up. And once I lost, I was told that I…

Maryland Shall Issue, Inc v. Wes Moore, 4th Cir.
B.L.U.F. Senior Circuit Judge Keene wrote the dissent in this case. She is unhappy with the majority opinion because that opinion would find most, if not all gun-control regulations, unconstitutional. Because this goes against her agenda, she latches onto footnote 9 of the Bruen opinion to justify why any set of objective hoops placed to…
