“Gun control is the idea that it’s better to see a woman dead in an alley, strangled
with her own pantyhose, than to see her with a gun in her hand.”—T.D. Melrose

Profiles In Cowardice
by L. Neil Smith
If my seventy-three years on this poor, battered planet have taught me nothing else, it is that the rarest and most valuable human quality is courage, and that there are more kinds of courage than simply one.

Culture and its Effects
by Sarah A. Hoyt
Yes, I know, you guys are wondering why I’m writing about culture, when it’s obvious I ain’t got no culture. Well, actually – Look, I like museums, and historical lectures (if I can find them with minimal or separatable (totally a word) politics, and if we ever get the money we’ll get season tickets to one of the music thingies (look, not enough caffeine, and all I can think of is the Colorado Springs Symphony.) I’m just fond of that stuff enough to make normal human beings uncomfortable around me (coupled with the fact most TV series bore me to death) while refusing to be high culture, because high culture these days is defined by “does it support the revolution.” Even our d*mn art museum is all about exhibits that high light the plight of illegal immigrants, or whatever. And I dislike those not even because I disagree with them.

Building Anew
by Jim Davidson
This essay is about creating places for people to thrive. It is not a new topic. Indeed, based on the research I’ve been doing for the last several decades, it seems to be a topic roughly as old as humanity. Shrouded in the mists of antiquity are stories of ancient sages sent to encourage peace, prosperity, and dignity. Also obscured by time is evidence that human cultures on Earth have risen and fallen again and again.

DEMOCRACY?
by L. Reichard White
Remember this? "I pledge allegiance to the flag of the United States of America and to the Republic for which it stands. ..." —The Pledge of Allegiance And how about this — "We gave you a Republic if you can keep it." —Benjamin Franklin So we’ve pledged allegiance to the Republic the founders left for us. Not the democracy. What’s the difference? Does it matter?

Boris Johnson: With a Bound Set Free
by Sean Gabb
Yesterday evening, Boris Johnson lost even the shadow of a majority. He may stagger through the next few days, till the prorogation takes effect. During this time, he may get his friends in the Lords to talk out the Bill forcing another delay to Brexit. But the prorogation offers only temporary relief. It will end. He will then have no majority to pass any deal he makes with the European Commission, and no majority for making any laws to deal with the effects of a No-Deal Brexit.
