Breaking up is hard to do … or is it?

Posted on May 14, 2020 by Steve Towers

It’s interesting that arguably the two most inept responses to the COVID-19 pandemic are countries led by birds of a feather. Boris Johnson, the United Kingdom’s prime minister, shares many of President Donald Trump’s traits: principle-free conservatism, über-nationalism, isolationism, clownish… Continue Reading →

    In reply to Mike Zapino. A fallacy frequently argued by gun enthusiasts is that guns make Americans safer so long as there are good guys carrying guns along with the bad guys. The gun homicide rates in the Old West, when most men carried guns, were astronomical—annually up to 400 per 100,000 in many cattle […]
