Biden vs. Trump, the Dozens, and Inuit song duels

The New Neo Posted on March 22, 2018 by neoMarch 22, 2018

What do these three things have in common: the recent Biden vs. Trump war of threatening words, the Dozens, and Inuit song duels? They’re all ways that people (especially men) threaten each other in an almost-comical way, in which the … Continue reading →

On the Gina Haspel torture story: fake, but inaccurate

The New Neo Posted on March 16, 2018 by neoMarch 16, 2018

In still another example of the sad and sorry and downright dangerous state of journalism today, the tale of Gina Haspel’s (Trump’s new pick to head the CIA) involvement in overseeing the waterboarding of Abu Zubaydah in Afghanistan in 2002, … Continue reading →

The world’s most violent cities

The New Neo Posted on March 10, 2018 by neoMarch 10, 2018

I have to say that these findings somewhat surprised me, although on reflection I know they shouldn’t have: 42 of the 50 cities in the world with the highest murder rates are in Latin America. I certainly was aware that … Continue reading →

School shooters and fatherlessness

The New Neo Posted on February 27, 2018 by neoFebruary 28, 2018

The Parkland shooting seems to have inspired a surge of references to the alleged fatherlessness of most school shooters (and even of most mass murderers). This article is fairly typical of such pieces, for example, and I see similar assertions … Continue reading →

Good guys with guns

The New Neo Posted on February 26, 2018 by neoFebruary 26, 2018

The Parkland shootings—and the police reaction to them—have sparked predictable responses on both sides. Here’s the way the liberal position on this seems to work, based on some or all of the following beliefs: (1) “Good guys” don’t kill people … Continue reading →

Parkland authorities: let the record show…

The New Neo Posted on February 24, 2018 by neoFebruary 24, 2018

It would be a tedious and lengthy process to list all the ways in which the authorities messed up during the events leading up to and including the Parkland shooting. If you’ve followed the coverage, you probably already know what … Continue reading →

Parkland and the Red Badge of Courage

The New Neo Posted on February 23, 2018 by neoFebruary 23, 2018

Parkland: It’s not enough to have an armed guard

The New Neo Posted on February 22, 2018 by neoFebruary 22, 2018

If the guard isn’t willing to engage the killer, the guard’s weapon does no good. This is a very very disturbing report: Scot Peterson, who was the last line of defense at Parkland’s Marjory Stoneman Douglas resigned after video surfaced … Continue reading →

The New Neo Posted on February 22, 2018 by neoFebruary 22, 2018

[NOTE: Here are links to Part I, Part II, and Part IIIA of the series. I figure that now—in the wake of the Parkland shooting—would be as good time as any to publish the last installment in this series, so … Continue reading →

Gun control: in crisis there is opportunity

The New Neo Posted on February 21, 2018 by neoFebruary 21, 2018

As you can see from today’s headlines on memeorandum, the Parkland shootings are being used as a springboard for advocates of more gun control. This is hardly unusual; it’s regularly done after each such event. Some would say these tragedies … Continue reading →
