A Hunting Party

A

Hunting party

Sometimes has a greater chance

Of flushing love and God

Out into the open

Than a warrior

All

Alone.

(The Gift: Poems by Hafiz, translations by Daniel Ladinsky)

Mike Shelton at the Orange County Register - OK, Play Ball! - cartoon commentary on the recent supreme court PGA golf decision. Hahahahahaha.

JPFO - Only in a Free Society - Ivan Shapiro had an intereseting Memorial Day float advertising his machine gun business. Pictures here. His website, Northern Maine Tactical Supply, says that in many states it is legal, though somewhat painful (fingerprinting, registration, CLEO signature, $200 transfer tax), to own a machine gun. [jpfo]

420girls.com has pictures of scantily-clad women posing with and talking about cannabis. [grabbe]

Washinton Times - The right to bear arms - an editorial "bully" for John Ashcroft's recent stand that the second amendment actually means what it clearly says. [market]

To anyone who has actually read the Second Amendment and has any grasp of the fundamental reason why American colonists rebelled against Great Britain in the first place, Mr. Ashcroft's interpretation is neither controversial nor surprising. America was founded on the idea of individual not "corporate" rights. In fact, only individuals can have rights, at least in any meaningful sense. "Society," the "people," etc. are all abstractions. They have no reality beyond the basic building blocks that comprise them that is, each individual. To take the opposite position, as demanded by gun-control advocates, is to turn one of the most fundamental founding principles on its head.

Allie Martin at Agape Press - Social Workers Not Bound by Fourth Amendment? - The North Carolina court of appeals has ruled that a home-school family could not deny entry to their home by a child destructive services nazi who was called when a neighbor reported, horror of horrors, their two-year-old daughter running naked after a cat. The case is going to the state supreme court and may end up in the U.S. supreme court. [market]

"Every year, there are approximately three million child-abuse investigations ... two-thirds of those are unfounded," he [Scott Sommerville, their attorney] says. "Now this case says that those three million investigations are not searches -- and that therefore those two million innocent families whose homes and lives were invaded [have] nothing to complain about because they were never searched in any way, and the Constitution doesn't apply and the social workers really aren't subject to any kind of rules at all."

Fox News - Graduation Held Without Suspended Honors Student - The Estero High School graduation happenned Tuesday night without Lindsay Brown. U.S. District Judge John Steele refused to overrule principal Fred Bode. Ms. Brown still faces felony weapons charges. Jesus, what a crock! [market]

I finished most of what I currently have planned for weblog.el. I can now generate & upload the index and all the files for this month (to update their calendars) with three keystrokes. I'll write some documentation soon, in sha' allah.
