My latest at Examiner.com, on proposed (by a Democrat, naturally) cyber-bullying legislation that would stifle free speech the way it is here in Canada.

Believe me, there are a few trolls who serve no other purpose but to insult and demean anyone who doesn’t fall into lockstep with them, and I’d personally love to see them in person and ask them to repeat themselves. Sadly, 99.9% of them are too cowardly for that sort of thing. Most of them won’t even write under their real names.

That said, this bill is nonsense on so many levels. I know the Obama administration has behaved like a bunch of teenagers with Daddy’s credit card at times, and taken the family plane out for a joy ride from time to time, but must we also legislate on the basis of a hormonal teenage girl?
