The temptation to engage in de facto corporal punishment is reinforced by the wide range of high-tech, non-lethal weaponry available to correctional personnel: electronic stunning devices (some of which are capable of delivering 50,000 volts and can be used with shields, darts, and probes),4 sting shot rubber bullets, stun guns (canvas bags filled with lead shot, canisters filled with wood blocks, or rubber pellets fired from a 37 millimeter gas gun), pepper spray (a type of teargas made from cayenne peppers developed in Canada to control bears), and a variety of restraint devices such as the restraint chair and the Body Guard (advertised as a revolutionary new design that allows officers to safely restrain and immobilize combative subjects without facing the complications and dangers a...
CHICAGO and Toronto are roughly equal in size. Yet Chicago averages 450 gun murders per year, while Toronto has fewer than 60. Why are Chicagoans seven times more violent and deadly than Toronto residents? Maybe it's because Canada has sensible gun control laws. Chicago's public radio station is airing a series titled "Under the Gun." The first episode featured the contrast with Toronto. Ontario Attorney General Michael Bryant said he nearly was impeached by irate citizens in 2005 when Toronto suffered an abnormal upsurge to 79 gun murders. "They wanted me to resign, wanted me to come up with solutions," he recalled.

Cabelas, the big outdoors retailer, announced it will build a store at Southridge Centre. The company said the store will be 80,000 square feet. Thats 46 percent the size of the 175,000-square- foot store Cabelas opened off Interstate 70 near Wheeling in 2004. In comparison, the Gander Mountain store that opened in Southridge Centre in 2006 has 65,000 square feet of space. Cabelas said its Charleston stores exterior will reflect Cabelas traditional store model with log construction, stonework, wood siding and metal roofing. A large glass storefront will allow customers to view much of the stores interior as they approach the building. The inside will highlight the companys next-generation layout, which is designed to immerse customers in the outdoor experience and includes conservation-...
Marvin E. Wolfgang believes that the data supportive of gun control to stem the increasing use of guns in violent crimes is far more substantial than data from studies that support gun ownership. Studies on the self-protection benefits of handgun availability usually suffer from small sample size. Statistics on the incidence of gun violence in countries with more restrictive laws. such as Canada and China, strongly suggest that gun control would reduce crime. Other research suggests that usage of guns in crime has increased over the last several decades.

The present paper subjects unions to a libertarian analysis and finds this organizational structure highly problematic from the perspective of the criminal law. Libertarianism is defined as that philosophy which opposes the initiation, or the threat thereof, of violence against non-aggressing people. Unions are characterized as groups which although need not in principle act contrary to this stricture, as a matter of fact always and ever do so. Hence, organized labor, as presently constituted, cannot be reconciled with libertarian principles of non-aggression. They are thus, in effect, criminal gangs and should be seen and treated as such.

Stewart: Gun-control argument has yet to reach the tipping point There may have been worse weeks in recent years, but none that I can recall. Thirty-two dead at Virginia Tech in southwestern Virginia, students and professors murdered in cold blood by a disturbed young man from South Korea. And then the toll rises to 33 when the young man takes his own life. Across the world, almost 200 Iraqi civilians killed in a single day in a string of attacks across Baghdad, 140 of that number killed by a single car bomb in a city market. In a sense, the terrible reality of Baghdad has gone on for so long that we are in danger of becoming numb to the relentlessly growing numbers of dead and wounded. It's a way of protecting ourselves from news that is almost too grim to comprehend. Iraq we know, eve...
