One of Ed Mosca’s latest examines New Hampshire Public Radios’s effort to gloss over the fact that New Hampshire State Law discriminates against New Hampshire residents. In his rebuttal to a piece by Casey McDermott, Ed notes that,
“..what actually comes to mind are thousands of out-of-State college students who choose to remain residents of their home States getting special rights no other voters in New Hampshire get: the right to choose between voting in their home States or in New Hampshire.
On Wednesday, a Los Angeles judge ruled in favor of a nonprofit that sued 90 coffee companies over claims that they had failed to comply with a state law that requires businesses to warn consumers about chemicals in their products that could cause cancer, Reuters reported.
The lawsuit, filed in 2010 by the Council for Education and Research on Toxics, pointed to a chemical called acrylamide that exists in brewed coffee.
And while coffee is today’s target, tomorrow’s could be one of these foods.
Out of the nearly 350 new articles published last month on this site these March Heavy Hitters got the most attention (which means the most unique page hits) for March 2018.
Opioids, Guns, Vote Fraud, Gun Free Zones, Jerry DeLemus, Anti-Gun Rallies, and Trump’s Wall all made the cut as did Guest posts by Ken Eyring and Lynn Murray.
Here they are!
(Classic reference in computing history – if you are old enough) (H/T: Powerline; yes, it is that kind of night))
I went to a Senate Hearing on CACR 15 on Thursday. There was even a chance for me to testify!
This the proposed NH Constitutional Amendment to restore a taxpayer’s right to sue a municipality or the State regarding taxation, a right that was stripped away by recent Superior and State Supra decisions. NH courts have in recent years decided to mold NH into a shape they decide is reasonable – by court order.
This one won’t go well – for them.
There are first world problems, and then there are first problems. And then there is this s#!^.
Though computer geeks are often depicted as marginalized due to their social exclusion, Blodgett and Salter argue that the opposite is actually true, asserting that geeks are aligned “with a type of toxic straight white masculinity that is rooted deeply in current cultural struggles.”
Somebody pitched this book, and someone else said Yes!
Larry Elder, writing at Townhall.com asks a great question. “Where’s the Common Sense in ‘Common Sense’ Gun Laws?” Without getting into how or why people who can’t figure out which bathroom to use (or their enablers) can make a claim to sense of any kind (let alone Common Sense), let’s assume the best (for the moment) and see what Larry has to say.
The “common-sense” gun control activists rarely ask, “What about the beneficial effect of gun ownership?”
Just a reminder for those looking for alternatives to Facebook and Twitter. GraniteGrok is on Gab and MeWe. You can follow me on both (Gab and MeWe) There are some technical issues with getting content from this site to those platforms regularly, but we are working on that.
Senate Bill 193 allows parents to set up and use education savings accounts (ESA’s). The public-union-only education industrial complex turns into the worlds mightiest chicken-little whenever anyone or anything challenges their monopoly on your children’s time and attention.
Think gangland turf war complete with a multimedia entertainment monopoly on fake news and disinformation to scaremonger parents, teachers, staff, and taxpayers into prohibiting infringement on what amounts to property rights over the hearts and minds of future generations.
In the heat of the moment, Vermont has gone full-Sanders and embraced a package of gun restrictions and limitations that will do absolutely nothing to reduce the odds of any illegal shooting in the state.

NH’s 2nd District Congressman, Nancy Kuster Pelosi, signed on to the more than a trillion-dollar omnibus spending, spending, spending bill – with glee. What else could she do? What else has NH Nancy Kuster Pelosi ever done? Throw money – get elected.
Pumped full of out-of-state cash and campaign volunteers every election, NH Nancy is good at getting elected and protecting the DC Swamp. She will never deviate from that agenda. How long can we here in New Hampshire afford to protect Washington, DC?
HB 628 is an unnecessary junk bill disguised as a feel-good Family Leave Act. (Lots of links here.) It’s a state mandate on job creators that’s bad for business and, The Senate is trying to ram HB 628 through as fast as possible! Thursday, April 5 — Senate Finance, State House room 105 2:30 p.m. … Read more
Loyal reader Vincent sent me a note letting us know that time had been taken to video the event in Keene, NH that mirrored the national “March for Lessening our Constitutional Rights Our Lives”. We appreciate that so here it is! You just gotta love them making small children as political pawns (starting around 3:00. … Read more
Beleive it or not, for the better part of twenty-plus years the U.S. Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) has been issuing regulations with the force of law without having to present any data publicly. Imposing rules, limiting individuals and job creators, driving up the cost of everything, without having to prove the thesis upon which these restrictions are based. The only Environment they’ve been protecting is their own. That’s the one they created that gives them unlimited power.
But not anymore.

It appears the Windham School District’s Administration has a double standard regarding when parental approval is deemed appropriate regarding student instruction. In September 2016, parents were required to sign a permission slip before their children would receive a copy of the United States Constitution on Constitution Day (Sept. 17th). That request rightfully raised some eyebrows in town. (And many students were never even offered a copy, even though the district was offered a donated copy for every student in the district…hmmm…)
If you didn’t get the email and you didn’t read it here, you might not know about it. About what? A State GOP email blast with a video asking New Hampshire’s Congressional delegation to denounce the idea of Repealing the Second Amendment.
Former Supreme Court Justice John Paul Stevens posited the idea in a New York Times Op-Ed. But none of the Old New Hampshire media has touched the story, even in their new online portals. That includes WMUR, The Union Leader (didn’t make the Granite Status) and the Concord Monitor. Nothing online. No hits anywhere in Nexis.
Did anyone else cover it? Yes!
