Securing your home is about one thing: never leave a potential point of entry without any kind of hindrance to an intruder. It is impossible to make your home 100% secure, meaning someone with enough determination will find a way to break in and cause some mayhem, but that doesn’t mean you can’t get very [...]
In all of this talk about gay marriage, one thing I think a lot of the anti gay-marriage side seem to keep forgetting is simply this: the moment the citizens of the various States allowed their State governments to require a license to be married, they lost all claim to the word marriage and any [...]

When reading of the New York Times discussing the Constitution of the United States, I often expect that they will, in many ways, get it wrong. And thankfully a recent op-ed authored by J. Harvie Wilkinson, III, proved to be no disappointment. What is mildly disappointing, however, is that Wilkinson is a judge. Not just [...]
It’s not often that I respond to a comment with a separate blog post. I’ve done it only a few times here. What prompts it is when I think that merely a comment in reply would be insufficient. So here I find myself revisiting Casey Anthony once again to respond to this comment on my [...]

The search terms keep coming in. People just will not let go of the Casey Anthony trial. There’s even a website called OverturnTheVerdict.com, which allows you to sign a petition regarding Caylee Anthony: We the undersigned demand justice in the murder of little Caylee Anthony. It is our belief that Casey Anthony should be found [...]
