I will never understand why protesters refuse to protest in ways the people they are protesting against find acceptable.

Donald Trump wants states to track your menstrual cycle, and Republicans think that ISN’T a violation of your rights.

They don’t want states to track your gun purchases, because they think that IS a violation of your rights.

Guns have more of a right to privacy than women.

Not the 'arrest warrant news' people are waiting for, but this is huge. The Special Criminal Court in the Central African Republic has made public an arrest warrant for the former president, François Bozizé (who is currently in exile in Guinea-Bissau).

If I were making a list of things that could lead to human extinction, wouldn't make the top 10. It's this kind of Chicken Little hysteria that makes it difficult to have a productive discussion over how to sensibly regulate such weapons. (There will never be a ban.)

The media needs to stop claiming that the UK 'championed' Karim A. A. Khan KC's election. The government initially refused to support him because it was more concerned about getting a British judge elected. It only got behind the Prosecutor once it became clear he would win.

I wish I had photos. My first protests were at the Rocky Flats Plant in Colorado, which made triggers for nuclear weapons. We would walk there from Boulder and lie down in front of the gates so the trucks with plutonium couldn't get in. I was arrested four or five times. twitter.com/cohelongo/stat…
