This time In San Diego California, the Criminal thugs of ACORN demonstrate just how not to cooperate with a criminal investigation. The response of the San Diego Office of ACORN to a pending visit by Officials of the State Attorney General’s Office was to toss and dump all documents in the hopes of non discovery. [...]

Attorney General Beau Biden’s Office balked, the second time in as many weeks, in its latest attempt to restrict the First Amendment rights of a well-respected Department of Correction critic. Deputy Attorney General Marc P. Niedzielski was due in court this morning to ask a judge to stop Dover attorney Steve Hampton from speaking out [...]

This weekend a Dover man allegedly pulled a sawed off shot gun on a family then ran off when one of the residents called the police. When the police tracked down the suspect, he ran. Knowing that witnesses had said the man was armed, deadly force was always a possibility if the perception of the [...]
I walked around the Silent No More Rally in Dover yesterday and talked to most of the people who were involved in putting together the event and the organizations who had tables at the event, and one guy with a good hat. I guess I should mention that I was there from about 12:30 until [...]

The Lubna-Ahmed al-Hussein trial in the Sudan will resume on September 7th. Who is this woman and what did she do that has her facing 40 lashes for “indecency” in the Sudan? She wore pants in public: Lubna Ahmed al-Hussein, who waived the immunity she has as an employee of the United Nations Mission in [...]

This is an AP story about some immediate health care costs that are being cut. Keep in mind this is happening without any new legislation needing to be passed. I am all for finding people who are breaking the law and arresting them. As with other situations, simply enforcing the existing laws will go a [...]
A Dover woman was charged with her 7th DUI plus drug charges. This is a case we should monitor to see how the new law works. I am a little sensitive to these repeat drunk drivers. I was almost hit head on by a drunk about 11 years ago where he severely injured two while [...]

So about 30 government officials and other major figures next-door in New Jersy were just arested on charges of major corruption, and international money laundering. This involves political bid fixing. (They must all be Republicans [/sarc.]) This includes two mayors, a deputy mayor, several city councilmen, some rabbi’s, a state assemblyman, and the list goes on. [...]

UPDATED: We know that the Henry Bill to allow compassionate use of cannabis was voted out of committee here in Delaware. Amendments are sure to follow. The position of the administration is unknown by this writer. A different version also advanced in Rhode Island to the Governor’s desk. It appears the movement has gained momentum [...]

I personally know of a case in Delaware where the true Perp walked after commiting what literally was vehicular homicide with a stolen vehicle, but the prosecutor (since shamefully dismissed for DUI) at the time was going for major symbolism and let that perp go. I am not kidding. That, given my personal knowledge of [...]

I have long been a critic of the Patriot Act even before it passed. It was too expansive and a violation of 4th, 5th and 10th amendment protections. The government that has the power to sweep people up and place them in jurisdictions far away from their support network of attorneys, friends, family, and witnesses [...]

Today I found out that my state representative thinks his job is to be the Governor’s waterboy: “Part of my job is to carry the water for the governor and it’s just that simple.” ~ Rep. Pete “The Waterboy” Schwartzkopf We just got out of an election season where John Carney, the former Lt. Governor, [...]

I called in response to this question, but the window of opportunity is incredibly small, relative to the time it demands. It’s based on the State of Vermont considering “legalizing” the practice of sexting. What is sexting? As WDEL describes it, it is basically the practice of sending sexually-suggestive, or even pornographic images of one’s [...]

The police can’t protect you like you can protect yourself. Home invasions have been increasing dramatically in this state. One homeowner was able to take one of these home invaders out of action and protect the homeowner’s family because that homeowner exercised the right to self defense. Keeping and bearing arms by law abiding citizens [...]

I guess one South Carolina sheriff’s department has a lot of money and no crime to spend it on. Michael Phelps is under investigation for smoking pot due to a British tabloid picture. No one else at the party is under investigation. There is no investigation to find the dealer made public. Only Phelps is [...]
It’s starting to get ridiculous. Baltimore Mayor Sheila A. Dixon was charged in a 12-count indictment. Her former boyfriend and developer Ronald H. Lipscomb was also charged earlier this week. Note: She was not fortunate enough to have prosecutor Patrick Fitzgerald pull the plug on the investigation (her’s went on for three years!). “Dixon, a [...]

Marriage started as an institution to bond the sexes. A renegade court tried to change it and in spite of bullies and politically correct mobs, the voters stood strong. Some extremists would like to turn CA into third world mobocracy. The mob leaders form an enemies list and instead of accepting defeat, they target those [...]

I don’t know if any headline I can dream up can do this one justice. A unique armed robbery.

In a well researched, comprehensive opinion, the high court upheld the plain meaning of the Constitution’s second amendment. It was not only a triumph of common sense, but the clear meaning of the constitution according to the original intent of the founders. The court forbade bans and unreasonable restrictions, but left regulation where it should [...]
