Freedom-loving Americans must resist cancel culture
Question of the Day
ANALYSIS/OPINION:
No place in American society is off limits for the amorphous blob known as “cancel culture.” Academia, Hollywood, toys, newspapers, baseball and even food companies have been subjected to the ultimate form of censorship total cancelation.
In recent months, we have seen increasingly absurd examples of the left’s vitriol and cancelation tactics.
J.K. Rowling, the author of the Harry Potter series, was canceled for her commonsense remarks that gender differences are real. Rowling was defending another cancel culture victim, Maya Forstater, who had tweeted that allowing trans-women to compete in women’s sports is unfair.

For those who insist on “following the science,” the evidence is in and the proper policy response is clear: We need more, not less, respect, and funding, for law enforcement efforts.
The Right Stuff: Police are not our problem
The police are not the problem.
The problem is teenage girls who think it’s OK to stab other teenage girls over cleaning their house. The problem is teenage girls who kill an Uber driver because he asked them to wear face masks in his car. In large part, the problem is the breakdown of the nuclear family.
This disintegration began during the Great Depression and has been furthered by programs such as the Great Society of the 1960s. Look at the data related to single moms and absent fathers. A significant portion of single moms receive governmental financial support while more than 60% of the fathers have no involvement at all.
