SOBer Thoughts (100907)
Northwest Territory caught liberal Jonathan Turley’s acknowledgment that gun ownership under the Second Amendment is an individual right — and caught an interesting truncation of the linked article’s URL.

Brain Shavings has the unsavory news from the Folsom Street Fair, and a follow-up. It seems the press is interested in supporting the gay community, but not in chronicling what mainstream members of that community do in broad daylight at a public event.
If those referred to in this Interested-Participant post (10/6 at 7:35 PM in case the link doesn’t go directly there) had done at the FSF what they were arrested for doing in public in Tennessee, they would have been celebrated instead of cuffed.

Right Angle notes an ad by Bill Todd, who is running for Columbus mayor, expressing alarm at that city’s murder rate, which is higher than New York City’s and LA’s. That was true even in 2005. The sad thing is, Columbus’s rate, while still somewhat lower than Cincy’s and Cleveland’s, used to be a lot lower. The city is less safe than it used to be, it’s getting worse, and it’s legitimate to ask Mayor Coleman why.
