An amendment introduced to the Oregon legislature Thursday would criminalize drug use on public transit. The Oregon Transit Association and Amalgamated Transit Union Local 757 are seeking to amend Senate Bill 1553 to create a misdemeanor charge for people who use illicit drugs while riding public transit.

Professional conduct tribunals in two Canadian provinces threw in the towel in vaccine-related disciplinary proceedings this month, part of the broader but inconsistent withdrawal of Canada's wide-ranging COVID crackdowns involving arrests of clergy, dismissal of service members and freezing of bank accounts and fundraisers. A third province this month dropped its case against a traveler who refused to use Canada's COVID vaccination tracker, while political opposition leaders are seeking Supreme Court review of the...

MONTERREY, Mexico—A surge of drug violence in Mexico's business capital and richest city has prompted an outcry from business leaders who on Wednesday took out full-page ads asking President Felipe Calderón to send in more soldiers to stem the violence. The growing violence in Monterrey, long one of Mexico's most modern and safe cities, is a sign that the country's war against drug gangs is spreading ever further from poorer battlegrounds along the border and into the country's wealthiest enclaves.

BaklinskiNEW DELHI, July 10, 2009 (LifeSiteNews.com) - India's Supreme Court has agreed to consider a petition seeking to repeal a recent lower court ruling that effectively decriminalized homosexual sex among consenting adults.Last week the Delhi High Court ruled that homosexual acts between consenting adults are not criminal and that the 150 year-old law, section 377 of the Indian Penal Code that criminalizes "carnal intercourse against the order of nature," is a violation of "fundamental rights" and must be amended in accordance with...

His approval ratings are at an all-time low, with only 31% of Americans approving of his job performance, while "68% believe the United States is worse off today than it was before Mr. Bush became president." Bush's immigration policies would open the floodgates to illegals, and Americans do not approve -- and it looks like the Senate agrees. Another poll shows support for the House's tough and very sensible immigration legislation, HR 4437: ...69 percent...

<p>The U.S. Senate has passed Ted Kennedy's so-called "hate crimes" bill.

Yet our liberal media have remained silent on the constitutional and First Amendment implications of this approach.</p>
