Based on a novel by Max Brooks, "World War Z" tries to capture the nation’s attention with yet another zombie, end-of-the-world situation.

Cody Wilson, a contemporary revolutionary

(05/28/13 4:15am)

Cody Wilson is a 25-year-old University of Texas law student, self-proclaimed market anarchist and co-founder of the arms manufacturing company Defense Distributed. The company has managed to set itself apart from other arms manufacturers because its fully functional handguns and semi-automatic rifle components are available for free to anyone with an Internet connection and access to a 3-D printer. With the advent of 3-D printable firearms and the mass distribution of them via Internet downloads, Wilson has been dubbed one of the “15 Most Dangerous People in the World” by www.wired.com and National Security blog, Danger Room. The only people who should really consider Wilson and company dangerous are law makers and anti-gun enthusiast on Capitol Hill.

Why this Christian supports marriage equality

(04/22/13 1:30am)

The current Supreme Court debate over the constitutionality of California’s Proposition 8 has captivated the hearts and minds of the American people, and strident voices on both sides of the issue have been making themselves known more boldly than ever before. So often I find that, as a Christian, I am expected to be a steadfast opponent of marriage equality, and it’s because of this that people are often surprised to learn nothing could be further from the truth.

Gaza Conflict

(11/27/12 12:15am)

I recognize as citizens of the United States we have the right to publish our opinions — no matter how misguided, poorly researched or morally questionable they may be. When I read an article in my own college newspaper condemning Israel for defending itself as thousands of rockets have been hurled into the state and into civilian towns, I was truly disgusted by the lack of thought put into the writing. There was no substance. No facts. Just an out-of-context quote from Nelson Mandela. This is not good journalism, this just sounds like anti-Semitic garbage. I find it comical that people could think it’s acceptable for terrorists to blow themselves up on a public bus in Israel because we all know that would never be tolerated in the U.S. Furthermore, to accuse Israel of ethnic cleansing? Maybe these two individuals are unaware of Hamas’ warning to Israel: “We love death more than you love life.” Please share with these two “journalists” some actual facts, a concept they seem to confuse with poorly (at best) researched opinions.
