WES VERNON, RA ANALYST — It doesn't seem to matter anymore. No matter which way you turn, no matter which exit for which you try to make a mad dash (figuratively speaking), you barely miss getting beyond the giant gate that slams shut in your face... (more)

ROBERT KNIGHT — While the U.S. Supreme Court held an Alice-in-Wonderland session on the nature and value of marriage, one of the nation's largest cities lay partly in ruins over the death of a black man in police custody. What do the two events have in common? In each instance, the concept of "civil rights" has been redefined to the breaking point... (more)


May 4, 2015
PATRICK J. BUCHANAN — Had Freddie Gray been robbed, beaten and left to die in the streets of his Baltimore neighborhood, no one would be mourning him today. No one would be marching for Freddie. No one would be using Freddie as the new poster child of "Black Lives Matter!"... (more)


May 4, 2015
NEW YORK POST — The Clintons have been playing the political press for idiots. Revealing what they've been up to took a little bit of work. It wasn't obvious. While Bill Clinton was giving a speech about fighting AIDS in Africa, or about educating girls in Asia, reporters simply regurgitated the press release. They didn't ask: Who's that shady guy standing next to Bill?... (more)

WASHINGTON EXAMINER — Too many Americans get care in emergency rooms instead of doctors offices -- and expanded health coverage is making the problem worse rather than fixing it. Three in four emergency room doctors said patient visits have increased since the Affordable Care Act's requirement to have health insurance went into effect, in an email survey released Monday by the American College of Emergency Physicians... (more)


May 4, 2015
STAR PARKER — The late Judge Robert Bork wrote prophetically in 2004 that the only viable option left for protecting the institution of traditional marriage in the United States is amending the Constitution to define marriage. Without the amendment, Bork predicted, the U.S. Supreme Court will "almost certainly" create "a national constitutional right to homosexual marriage."... (more)

ERIK RUSH — "This has been going on for a long time ..." -- Barack Obama, April 28, 2015. None of us knows what occurred between 25-year-old Freddie Gray and police officers in Baltimore on April 12; what's significant is that the rioters who subsequently laid waste to areas of Baltimore following Gray's funeral on April 27 don't know what occurred between Gray and Baltimore police, either....

JESSE LEE PETERSON — The city of Baltimore is reeling. It has lost all sense of order. It has lost the sense of stability that the presence of good men provides. Since the death of 25-year-old drug dealer Freddie Gray, who died while in police custody, we've heard from members of his family who say they're satisfied with the criminal charges that have been brought against six Baltimore police officers...

May 4, 2015
TAMMY BRUCE — All around us failed Democratic leadership is insisting on being recognized. As Baltimore, a great American city, teeters on a precipice, media and politicians still tiptoe around the truth, knowing if reality was actually acknowledged, the entire liberal narrative would collapse... (more)


May 4, 2015
NEWSMAX — Baltimore's top prosecutor acted swiftly, charging six officers in the death of Freddie Gray, who suffered a grave spinal injury as he was arrested and put into a police transport van, handcuffed and without a seat belt. But getting a jury to convict police officers of murder and manslaughter will be far harder than obtaining arrest warrants.... (more)


May 4, 2015
WORLDNETDAILY — Twitter -- the social media company that was just in the news for a shares' loss of nearly 20 percent -- is now under fire for perceived censorship of conservative viewpoints. Noted conservative author and commentator Michelle Malkin picked up a thread that was making rounds on the social media site, writing in a tweet of her own: "Conservative Twitter users raising troubling questions whether @Twitter's new 'quality filter' is censoring based on ideology."...

May 1, 2015
NEWSMAX — Much of the mainstream media coverage of the Baltimore riots has focused on the supposed misdeeds of police in a city with an alleged history of police brutality, but far less attention has been given to a number of complicating factors surrounding the outbreak... (more)


May 1, 2015
NEWSMAX — Supreme Court Chief Justice John Roberts may have grounds to justify a vote in support of same-sex marriage as the high court mulls the issues in advance of a much-anticipated ruling, the Daily Caller reports. Roberts in early comments leaned into the idea that the case was more about sexual discrimination or gender bias than simply same-sex marriage, the Daily Caller noted... (more)

CLIFF KINCAID — The reaction among responsible black and white law-abiding citizens to the black thugs rioting in Baltimore was captured by Toya Graham, the black mother who smacked her son around when she found him on the streets joining the attacks on police.

CNS NEWS — In the oral arguments presented yesterday in the Supreme Court on the question of whether the U.S. Constitution guarantees two people of the same sex the right to marry one another, Justice Samuel Alito asked whether--if two of the same sex have a right to marry--why not four people of opposite sexes... (more)


April 30, 2015
WORLDNETDAILY — Traditional marriage supporters and legal reporters suggest Tuesday's oral arguments on the definition of marriage mean the Supreme Court could go either way on marriage, but a respected legal scholar says the track record of the justices shows the odds are still strongly with supporters of same-sex marriage...

April 30, 2015
WORLDNETDAILY — Evidence of a pro-"gay" bias by two Supreme Court justices, especially Ruth Ginsburg, could undermine the court's ruling on same-sex "marriage," according to a constitutional expert.

John Eidsmoe told WND on Wednesday... (more)
