Gay marriage approval

Updated May 15, 2013 01:01AM MDT

With all of New England now allowing gays to marry, surely fearful conservatives worry that the cancer is spreading — not just down the East Coast to New York, Delaware and Maryland, but it’s popping up everywhere, in Iowa, Washington, even Minnesota.

Aussie gun control

Updated May 11, 2013 01:01AM MDT

America has a long history of individual freedom and personal responsibility. Its westward expansion by rugged individuals and the romanticizing of its gun history strengthen its gun culture in America, especially in the West. That almost everything about American society has changed since the 1800s seems irrelevant to gun fanatics. In 1999, the Columbine shooters killed 13 and wounded 24. Public outrage resulted in no major long-term gun control. Five years later, America allowed the assault ...
