New Commentaries At C4SS
My weekly commentaries are up at Center for a Stateless Society.
In True Economic Liberty: Not a Conservative Idea, I use a Students For Liberty post as a springboard to discussing the idea that conservatives support “economic liberty.”
Unfortunately McCobin’s article, like many free-market libertarian works, does not look deeply enough into the assumption that conservatives support economic liberty. Are conservatives in general really in favor of a free economy?
PA School Encourages Sexual Assault is based on a story so ridiculous, I had to keep reading it over again because it was so hard to believe that I got the right idea from it.
After a Pennsylvania high school student told administrators that another student had raped her, the school principal’s response was to use her as “bait” to catch students he suspected were having consensual sex on campus. The alleged perpetrator was not pursued and is now accused of raping the same student later that night.
Yes, you read that right. Not only was a serious crime not investigated, but the alleged victim was forced to take part in a sting operation to catch non-criminals. And then she was raped again.
How could something like this happen?
