Today's Outrages

Another pain doctor is given decades in prison for prescribing pain medication to people in pain.

[the prosecutor] pointed out Nucklos's duty as a physician to follow legal guidelines and asked for the maximum 50-year sentence.

Uh, no. Nucklos's duty as a physician is to follow medical guidelines. I hope this prosecutor is in a horrible car crash someday and lives the rest of his life in pain without medication.

Then there's this sad story of yet another family being kicked out of their home because they don't meet a bureaucrat's definition of what a family should look like. There really should be a 14th Amendment challenge to these kinds of zoning laws. While cities can claim they have a right to lay down general zoning laws limiting housing occupancy to a certain number of people, they most certainly can't claim they have a right to discriminate against occupants based on their lifestyle choices. (PS. Despite what cities might claim, they don't have a right to limit the number of people who can live in a home either. It's none of their business).
