Congratulations, Joseph Frederick! At age 18, Frederick was fed up with his lack of rights as a student and decided to shake things up a bit. Take a provocative nonsense slogan from a surfboard, put it on a banner, and see if maybe the TV cameras will pick it up. It succeeded beyond his [...] Could be any day now for the decision in this Supreme Court case. Will it be a victory for free speech and the rights of students to have a life that isn’t controlled by the schools?

I’m not really talking about Ode to the Joint I [...] “bullet” View RSS feed The Drug Czar’s latest “report” on teens, drugs and violence is the usual mishmash of distorted statistics and implied conclusions not drawn from the data, all in an attempt to scare people. Today ONDCP released a new Special Report showing that teens who use drugs are more likely to engage in violent and delinquent [...] Radley Balko’s doing some great stuff. Today, he’s testifying “as part of House Crime Subcommittee Chairman Bobby Scott’s ‘Crime Summit.’ … topic is the militarization of domestic police departments.” There’s nobody better to talk about that subject. And on July 19th he’s been invited to testify at hearings on the Kathryn Johnston raid. It’s [...] |
