The outrage is growing against RINO legislators in conservative states who vote against bills to protect children from pornography, “sex-change” medical procedures, and other harm by the radical Left.

WATERLOO — Students and faculty at Wilfrid Laurier University are slamming the graduate students association after its sudden decision to close a popular campus café this week. The apparent reason? A tongue-in-cheek help wanted ad that asked for a "slave" to help run the café. On Monday, Veritas Café operator Sandor Dosman was brought into a boardroom and told the recent advertisement he'd posted online had ruffled some feathers.

HUMAN beings have an appetite for moral outrage. You see this in public life — in the condemnation of Donald J. Trump for vowing to bar Muslims from the United States, or of Hillary Clinton for her close involvement with Wall Street, to pick two ready examples — and you see this in personal life, where we criticize friends, colleagues and neighbors who behave badly.

Postmodern “moralists” like Larry Flynt will extrapolate from there. The talking point...

A local pro-life organization protested the performance Sunday of a gay men's chorus at a Catholic church. Representatives of the Buffalo Regional Right to Life Committee said it was inappropriate for Blessed Trinity Church to allow homosexuals to sing at the church because of the Catholic Church's position against homosexuality. "The homosexual lifestyle is immoral, and a gay group is not appropriate for a church," said George L. Kraus, vice...

Photo credit: National Archives, courtesy of USHMM Photo Archives )As it did in 2004, the Korean government will abstain from this year's U.N. Resolution condemning the deplorable state of human rights in North Korea. South Korea failed to vote on a similar resolution in 2003. This year’s resolution will express concern about abuses such as concentration camps for political prisoners. Among the resolution’s points which are apparently unworthy...
