Remember the Hippocratic Oath? Evidently, neither do physicians. by Wesley J. Smith I am not prejudging this case, but I bring it up here because I think it illustrates the loss of trust that a “presumed consent” organ donation scheme would engender in people.

by Benjy Sarlin Just remember this when you hear yet again someone condescendingly say “Nobody is trying to take your guns.” A Democratic congressman has proposed outlawing “military-style semiautomatic assault weapons” and forcing existing owners to sell their weapons or face prosecution, a major departure from prior gun control proposals that typically exempt existing firearms.
