Language over abortion is clearly tricky, especially if you're broadcaster like the BBC with commitments to impartiality on such issues. The BBC News website report *Roe v Wade: The world reacts to US abortion ruling*, first published on Saturday, really went out of its way to cover all bases. It used 'pro-abortion' and 'pro-choice' and 'reproductive rights' campaigners' and 'gender justice activists' for one side and 'anti-abortion' and 'pro-life' for the other side. Suddenly today one of those phrases was removed and replaced...and I bet you can guess which one [click to enlarge].... read more

Capitalism Is the Real Information WarIn the foreword to Last Dance, Last Chance, Ann Rule meditates on the nature of liars. “Once a lie is successful,” she says, “it grows and multiplies, burnished and perfected until it works every time. It’s a sad irony that the more honest a potential victim is, the more innocent, the more likely such a person is to become prey. Honest people don’t expect to be lied to, because they wouldn’t lie to someone else. That doesn’t matter at all to dedicated liars. They only smile.” As a true-crime writer, Rule was talking about murderers, kidnappers, and other violent offenders. But she c... read more

Self Ownership, Obamacare, and Abortion RightsThe Supreme Court has noted that abortion is not mentioned in the U. S. Constitution. It is not. Neither is it mentioned explicitly that every individual owns his or her own life. Yet those rights acknowledged explicitly in the Constitution in the First and Second Amendments would seem to have a basis in an assumption that every individual owns his or her own life. The right to self-ownership is surely one of the rights that was meant to be protected by the Ninth Amendment. "The enumeration in the Constitution of certain rights shall not be construed to deny or disparage othe... read more
