My, My, California Has Gone Full Communism: “Hey, Shopkeep? Your Stuff Is Now Officially the Thieves”. The Former No Longer Allowed To Stop the Latter
Because when The State is no longer going to protect the Right to Private Property, NO one can own anything at all. And if you no longer own your property, there can be no private Freedom.

So What’s in Your Child’s Public School Library? I Didn’t Know, So I Did a Right to Know.
“Right to knows” are like a Lay’s potato chip; you just can’t eat just one or send only one. So, I sent more than one, more than a few. And more to come, but here was a first effort. Here was the “payload” (minus the normal boilerplate):
A Sociobiological Peek at Our Situation
It seems we are in for some big changes. Some say there will be real physical changes made to the human being by design — our DNA will be maliciously fiddled with. I am not able to foresee what may happen in that regard. I’m here to address the way basic forces of biology are acting upon us.
Mary’s Moral Militia, Part 2: Instincts
My first career was as a sociobiologist (See my book The Sociobiological Imagination, SUNY Press, 1990). The late EO Wilson was my mentor. By 2000, I moved into Law, but I’ve never stopped looking at how law exists in relation to our evolved instincts.

BREAKING: So Doug Lambert, What Are You Going to Do Now That Another Gunstock Check to the Sununu Campaign Has Surfaced???
I’ve known that the existence of this newly discovered $1,000 check had been rumored for a while but I was asked to remain silent. However, loyal reader (and relatively new – THANKS for reading GraniteGrok!) Commenter Manny brought this up last night on my post (“Gunstock – Somebody Gave NH State Rep Harry Bean Really … Read more
The Line between Good and Evil Runs through the Human Heart
Nineteen children, along with two teachers in the Uvalde, Texas Robb Elementary school, paid with their lives because gun control advocates base their legislation on the false premise that “guns kill people.”
Palate Cleanser – Well, Mine Certainly Do!
“Every morning I find out I have new joints I never knew I had because they crack.” And yes, the guy in the picture, I used to watch him every morning before school decades ago.
How to Be an Anti-Racist in Vermont
The topic of anti-racism is a hot one in Vermont, and why shouldn’t it be? Since racism is now an inbred feature to whiteness, Vermont is officially the most racist state in the U.S. after those Maniacal racists at our eastern border.
When Civilization Gives up on Moral Principle …
Most of us think that is it a “higher-order” of living and recognizing what is around us with both a set of rules, both written and unwritten, that have been crafted (or dumped on us) over the centuries.
A Middle-School Teacher Calls Parents ‘Bigots’ And ‘Kooks’ For Voicing Concern Over Pornographic Material In Books
What we are seeing, in the Left-leaning teaching profession, is a complete disdain for Parents. They believe that Parents should have no role in the education of their children.
Tomorrow is the Day We Find Out How Many People Hate Parents – HB1431
School boards all over the country were perfectly fine with defining many Parents as “Domestic Terrorists.” And by a 4-1 margin my school board agreed with that (only one spoke out when I asked “do you consider me to be a Domestic Terrorist?”).

Quick Takes – Hat Trick
Within I pick three topics upon which to discourse, but not worth a full-length examination as a standalone piece on their own. But first, reprising an older cartoon (for shameless self-promotion!):
The Left Has No Humility
“Our default assumption should instead be that people who make choices different from what we make or would have made must have their reasons, even if we do not know what they are.” …
Relativism Versus Reality: Ralph Peters and Endless War
Since 1968, when my essay “The Crisis of Our Times” appeared in the Congressional Record, I have written several books warning of the pernicious and subversive influence of the university-bred doctrine of moral and cultural relativism.
If Morality Is Relative, Then I Can’t Be a Racist and Militant Vegans Can’t Fault Me for Eating Meat.
Moral relativism is a foundation of secular humanism. It’s the idea that no one can know or compel another person’s morality because it can’t. It’s an unintentional corollary to cultural appropriation (or maybe I have that reversed) – another stupid left-Wing idea.
