Everyone surely knows of a proposed amendment to the Louisiana Constitution, which has somehow become contentious. This bill is in the classic pro-life/pro-choice battlefield, and has enjoyed the classic arguments surrounding the issue. Like always, we should take a step back, try to understand what’s really happening with this bill, and make sound, reasonableContinue reading “Fetal Fear Mongering: LA’s Amendment 1”

What the Frack?
November is right around the corner! It’s about time for that wonderfully American event of voting for our President, Vice President, and other small things here and there. In 2020, it would seem as if this election would carry more weight than past elections have. You would be right, in a sense. We areContinue reading “What the Frack?”
The Fools of Football
I have only ever been a fan of one college football team, the Louisiana Ragin’ Cajuns. In recent years, I have been slowly warming up to other Sun Belt teams. This season, however, I am even more set in my ways because of the action of most of the other conferences (and Louisiana’s winContinue reading “The Fools of Football”
Socialism is Garbage
One thing that’s always fun is talking about how bad a socialist system would be in the United States. With everything going on in the news, we need a good distraction and draw into the real world. So let’s jump in! Our country is the best country in the world due to our freedomContinue reading “Socialism is Garbage”

Kamala Harris has finally etched her name on to the ballots this year, which makes the Democrats’ November ticket complete. So now, with a new bit of news (FINALLY, Coronavirus is making everything so boring), we can take a look at how the Democrats are going to stack up against the incumbents.

An Identity Crisis: Political Confusion
What happens to our political leanings when a pandemic comes to town? Blurred lines appear in between. Leftists start leaning right, and vice versa. Strange to watch from the sidelines. However, when this phenomenon is coupled with people incessantly talking and talking and talking on Facebook, it gets interesting. The event which was observedContinue reading “An Identity Crisis: Political Confusion”
An Identity Crisis: Who Am I Speaking For?
Who here remembers the 2016 election? I think it would be hard to find anyone of voting age who could not recall. I think we have seen many similarities between 2016 and 2020 so far. One thing has changed, and it strikes me as odd. The closest we came to was that public relationsContinue reading “An Identity Crisis: Who Am I Speaking For?”
An Identity Crisis: Who is Accountable for our Actions?
What has our character become? Where can we find those honest qualities in a person that stand out? Is the quality of a person declining as the years and powers of social media grow? It’s a disconcerting thing. The sad part is, the people who are exhibiting such behaviors are people who should knowContinue reading “An Identity Crisis: Who is Accountable for our Actions?”
40 Hour Week is a Part-Time Job
One interesting aspect of social media is the ease which people can share their opinions on anything from the weather to the deepest conspiracy theories. In this capacity, one can easily see which opinions are well thought out, which ones are not, and which ones are a little crazy. Recently, several of my FacebookContinue reading “40 Hour Week is a Part-Time Job”
Remembering Aunt Jemima: A Eulogy
Our dear Aunt Jemima has departed us recently. She ceased to exist in print, and with her she took the Land O Lakes Native American woman, Uncle Ben, and the Washington Redskins. These poor victims of militant “Progressives” have given us many things, including full stomachs and entertainment, but they will leave us withContinue reading “Remembering Aunt Jemima: A Eulogy”
