| Donald Kaul suffered a heart attack back in July and discontinued writing his weekly column for the opinion website OtherWords.org. Depending upon how you count, that was Kaul’s second or third retirement. Today, Kaul announces that he’s ba-a-a-ck. This time, he’s only promising to write when events move him and not to be pinned down by a weekly column.

Comments: Kaul peels off his collectivist face mask and channels his deepest, inner, anti-Constitutional, core beliefs. Hint: Violence is OK, as long as it is directed at law abiding gun-owners.

I just read this on the Des Moines rag and many of the comments - no one but a few paid plants have nice things to say about this man, the article or the paper.
Isn´t GANNET owner of the other paper in NJ that published names of legal, registered gun owners last week?
This tripe is coming from much higher than some rag in NJ or Iowa - better believe that - this stuff isn´t one-off loony liberal ranting - why would a newspaper PUBLISH an article that calls for genocide and torture of republican officials?
Liberals are stupid - but they are also deviant and a stupid deviant is dangerous.

The Constitution is NOT negotiable. It stands between US and an overbearing government.

What a dunce. he is just so all about his little feelings. We all have feelings. The difference is that people who cherish freedom do not legislate their feelings on others. That difference is becoming more and more pronounced lately.

This vile, bitter old man uses the argument that the framers of the Constitution did not envision modern guns. For those in the news business the framers did not envision the telegraph, the telephone, radio, television, the internet, the computer, the cellphone and all the other ways news is spread. If we are to give up our modern guns and go back to the guns at the time of the framing of the Constitution, then the media can go back to the old printing press and spreading the news by horse and town crier.

We live in a nation that is neither willing nor able to stop those under the influence of alcohol from driving cars and trucks. So people like Barack Obama and Michael Bloomberg, et al., think we need to ban guns.
We are not willing to prevent people with certain mental illnesses from having access to firearms. But we are willing to prevent law abiding citizens from owning them.

The Founding Fathers were Divinely guided. IF they had meant muskets, they would have said muskets. But they said the right to bear ARMS, which means they were indeed looking to the future of the country and whatever arms were developed in the future. The second amendment is to protect the citizens from threats and an overbearing government. How far would muskets help in today´s world?

We need an agenda on spending right now. Forget about the gun nonsense.

Gun sales will rise, but not because of idiots like Kaul.

Americans should care as much about Washington ruining our lives as they do about our guns.

A group of whistleblowers, including a number of aviation experts, have come forward in a new documentary to claim that the official explanation for the crash of TWA Flight 800 was wrong and a gas tank explosion did not bring down the flight off the coast of Long Island 17 years ago. However, the six whistleblowers, all part of the original investigation team, stopped short of saying the plane was shot down. Flight 800, a Boeing 747, had just taken off from JFK airport with 230 people aboard on July 17, 1996 enroute to Paris when it exploded

An attorney whose firm represents two Benghazi whistleblowers said Gen. Martin Dempsey, chairman of the Joint Chiefs of Staff, lied to the Senate when he said there was never a “stand down” order during the Benghazi attack on Sept. 11, 2012. “What was fascinating is that he explained his lie to them,” Joe DiGenova, an attorney representing one of the whistleblowers, told CNSNews.com. “He actually said they were sent to Tripoli. They were needed in Benghazi,” said DiGenova, a former U.S. attorney, now with the Washington firm of DiGenova & Toensing.

Likening religious schools to segregation--a racist system that forced blacks to attend different schools and use different facilities than whites in the American South--President Barack Obama told a town hall meeting for youth in Belfast, Northern Ireland on Monday that there should not be Catholic and Protestant schools because such schools cause division. "Because issues like segregated schools and housing, lack of jobs and opportunity--symbols of history that are a source of pride for some and pain for others--these are not tangential to peace; they’re essential to it,"

Amid a steady rise of backlash, Edward Snowden, the 29-year-old former National Security Agency contractor who was the source of a spring of leaks about the agency´s surveillance methods, conducted a live chat on The Guardian´s website Monday morning. Judging from some of the pointed questions he´s been asked and the reaction to newly leaked revelations over the past few days, it´s clear that much of the sympathy and support Snowden had built up for his early exposures is eroding. Many Americans supported his decision to leak information about a pair of National Security Agency surveillance programs, which, he detailed, gathered information

Listening to Barack Obama give his speech in Belfast on Monday, it was hard not to stifle a yawn. I kept waiting for the part when he would say something interesting, but, about three quarters of the way through, realised it wasn’t going to come. Judging from television pictures some of his young audience felt the same, after the initial rush of euphoria of receiving the rock star president in their midst had passed. This is not surprising, for we had already heard this number about the inspirational role of the Northern Ireland peace process and the Emerald Isle’s

This is the thirtieth anniversary of the publication of How Democracies Perish, an analysis of the spread of world communism by Jean-François Revel, one of freedom´s most serious French defenders since Tocqueville. At the heart of this work, Revel details "The Tools of Communist Expansion," among which the most relevant for understanding our current situation comes in Chapter 16, "Ideological Warfare and Disinformation." The profound simplicity of Revel´s nuts and bolts account of totalitarianism´s Cold War advance, far from being obsolete

Charlie Rose last night asked President Obama his new Syria policy. The president first objected to it being called a new policy. "I´m not sure you can characterize this as a new policy. This is consistent with the policy that I´ve had throughout," he said. Obama then explained the goal is regional stability, and especially in Syria. "Really, what we´re trying to do is take sides against extremists of all sorts and in favor of people who are in favor of moderation, tolerance, representative government, and over the long-term, stability and prosperity for the people of Syria," said Obama.
