Life Sentences Upheld

 The Supreme Court Monday declined to take a challenge to a Wisconsin law banning state residents who have been convicted of felonies – including non-violent crimes – from owning handguns for the rest of their lives...The question of whether states can ban non-violent felons from owning guns has repeatedly come up at the Supreme Court but remains unanswered. The justices declined to take up three similar challenges earlier this year, allowing to stand lower court rulings that upheld similar state laws. One of those cases involved a man who had pleaded guilty to selling counterfeit cassette tapes in the 1980s. [More]

Well, not just "handguns," but we're dealing with "real reporters" here.

Funny, what can constitute a "non-violent crime"...

Let's hear it for "gun rights leaders" who urge government to "Enforce existing gun laws"!

And thanks again, "conservative" justices!

Whistleblowing Smoke

 During the 60 Minutes segment, Haugen criticized Facebook for lack of censorship despite the Big Tech giant banning individuals that hold conservative principles from their platforms. Haugen said there needs to be more censorship and insisted that Facebook was misleading investors. She blamed Facebook for contributing to the January 6 riot at the US Capitol despite the FBI's investigation which revealed there was no "insurrection" or coordinated attack. [More]

So she's more fanatical apparatchik than whistleblower...? That I mind seeing factions of the left turn on each other...

Maybe it's just a bad picture, but I look at her and wonder if she ate her siblings in utero...

It Depends Upon What the Meaning of the Word 'Disenfranchisement' Is

 Curiously, while local politicos were all up in arms about “voter suppression” in Georgia, or demagogued about “restoring voting rights” to parolees, it’s all radio silence when it comes to the attempted destruction of ballots of the ordinary, law-abiding in San Franciscans.  [More]

If WSM is a city operation and if an administration has the power to decide whose speech to restrict, how is that not an unconstitutional First Amendment violation? Remember this?

Trump Can’t Block Critics From His Twitter Account, Appeals Court Rules - The decision may have broader implications for how the First Amendment applies to officials’ accounts in the social-media era.
