The jury isn't just there to protect you. It's also there to send you away when you are obviously trying to hack the system. "Oh, gee, I just bought the gun on Tuesday and sold it on Thursday for no particular reason. It just

It really puzzles me why existing gun laws that everyone agrees on aren't enforced. How are there so many repeat offenders that are violent with guns? It seems to be some kind of trend to make guns a white-collar crime or something. Li

I've never heard this theory before, but it makes sense. Can someone corroberate or expand on this point please? If it's true, the implications for art are pretty worrisome in a globalized marketplace.

This argument comes up a lot, but clearly there's some textual basis. To pretend there isn't is to just put your head in the sand.

"This is a small minority that just needs 51% of voter turnout" I'm unclear what definition of "minority" you are using here. That sounds like a majority to me. Comparing with poll numbers is not an apples-to-apples

Freedom is an important part of the American identity (arguably the defining part, at least aspirationally), and I believe in freedom. But we should recognize that humans are sometimes happier having some clear directions to follow and task
