Despite appeals to the University of Chicago to stop the destruction of Ronald Reagan’s childhood home, the university went forward with its demolition yesterday.
Why? The university-land owner wants to build a parking lot.
Here’s a short video of what happened:
As we noted last month, it’s hard to even believe that Reagan served in most of our lifetimes. In this video, he comes to us now as an obscure figure out of the not-so-distant past.
His simple and straightforward faith in God, and in America, was winsome and poignant.
One cannot help but be struck by the stark contrast to the current occupant of the White House, 21st Century America, and of the vanguard of the GOP.
Ronald Reagan spoke deeply to the American soul.

At a gun rights forum in Denver, US Representative Diana DeGette, who apparently doesn’t know the difference between gun magazines and bullets [see a clip of that astonishing statement HERE], belittled an elderly citizen who asked how he could defend himself with new gun control restrictions.
Representative Diana DeGette callously responded, “The good news for you, you live in Denver. The Denver PD would be there within minutes. You’d probably be dead anyway.”

When asked about the possible involvement of the Aryan Brotherhood in the killings, the Republican governor said it is too early to speculate about who was behind the killings, but added that it also wouldn’t be wise to overlook any angle.
We know the drug cartels are very, very active in our country now. It goes back … to the whole issue of border security and the failure of the federal government . . .

Democratic Rep. Diana DeGette has been the lead sponsor on a federal ban on high-capacity ammunition magazines in two Congresses, saying it’s one of her top priorities.
But Tuesday at a Denver Post forum on the gun control debate, the senior congresswoman from Denver appeared to not understand how guns work. [She also mocked a senior citizen. See that video HERE]
Asked how a ban on magazines holding more than 15 rounds would be effective in reducing gun violence, DeGette said:
“I will tell you these are ammunition, they’re bullets, so the people who have those now they’re going to shoot them, so if you ban them in the future, the number of these high capacity magazines is going to decrease dramatically over time because the bullets will have been shot and there won’t be any more available.”
What she didn’t appear to understand is that a magazine can be reloaded with more bullets. According to the Shooter’s Log, only early on were magazines for AR-15s designed to be disposable, but the military changed that and now magazines are used several times. In handguns, a magazine is designed to be reused hundreds of times.

Today, the Center for Bioethical Reform staged a demonstration in front of the Capitol in Juneau, Alaska. The event, intended to influence public policy by educating legislators about the horrors of abortion, started with little fanfare.
The activists erected large posters of aborted babies across from the capitol steps. At first, it didn’t seem their activities were attracting much attention. But that soon changed.
According to one participant we interviewed today, a line of trucks began to appear, some parking in the middle of the road, the others parking in the loading zone immediately in front of the capitol.
One driver exited his vehicle and apologized, stating he was just doing what he was told to do:
Several hours later, after a legislator’s staff was contacted, the vehicles were abruptly removed.
The governor should immediately investigate who gave the order to use state assets to interfere with this peaceful political protest. The use of state resources in this partisan and anti-First Amendment way is wrong and someone should be held accountable.
UPDATE: Governor Parnell’s office contacted Restoring Liberty today and emailed THIS RESPONSE.

Between his prayer-breakfast speech, his gay-marriage comments and now this, I wonder how long it’ll be before left-leaning teachers start dropping his story Black History from lesson plans. How does being a world-renowned neurosurgeon qualify you to be a role model when you’re on The Wrong Side of History?

A 15 year old girl uses facts and knowledge from a shooter’s perspective to completely shut down any argument for more gun control. Reminding us that “guns are not the problem, people are.” Why isn’t our government this intelligent?

North Korean tyrant Kim Jong-un has stoked further tensions with the US – releasing disturbing footage of live-firing exercises using cut-outs of American soldiers as targets.
The video from state TV emerged days after the country warned it was in a “state of war” with the South.
Soldiers can be seen letting off a volley of bullets at the targets which are left riddled with holes.
It’s the latest provocative film released by communist nation led by crackpot dictator Kim Jong-un.

In the past two months, in attempts to offer an argument against same-sex marriage, two children have testified before their state legislators, countering other children who have been testifying for it. The two children testifying against it have either been crudely insulted or received death threats.
In February, speaking to the Minnesota House Committee on Civil Law, 11-year-old Grace Evans offered this statement…
Her father, Jeff Evans, revealed the treatment Grace had received from political opponents:
We haven’t had any physical threats, but we’ve had some rather colorful comments about my 11-year-old. I’ve been monitoring it to keep my family safe and have a heads up on it. It’s really shameful the things that people will say, hiding behind an Internet alias. We see it as more representative of where political discourse is in our country, where you can’t take a position without receiving a great deal of flak, which is unfortunate.

While the White House says sequestration has eliminated funds for children touring the White House, President Obama has no problem spending $350 million federal tax dollars for sexual indoctrination programs starting in kindergarten for those same children.
This is not your grandmother’s sex education about how things work and what can go “wrong.” In fact, the exact opposite is the essence of the Personal Responsibility Education Program (PREP): Obamacare funnels $75 million annually into PREP, which must be used exclusively for Planned Parenthood-style “comprehensive” sex ed programs where no type of sex is wrong and the only sexual behavior PP considers “unsafe” is becoming pregnant.
More than one-fourth of the funds ‒ $20 million ‒ has been awarded to a coalition of six Planned Parenthood affiliates, operating under the name Northwest Coalition for Adolescent Health, to implement HHS’s TOP program across Montana, Oregon, Idaho, Washington, and Alaska at over 50 sites. In Oregon schools, Planned Parenthood is paying children cash incentives to participate.
PP is funded with our tax dollars to market sex to our children in our schools under the guise of sex education, anti-bullying, diversity, and tolerance. Once sexualized, those children then become PP sex customers for contraceptives, STD testing, and abortion.
“A glance at the teacher outline for Lesson 1A, the introductory lesson (page 12 of the linked PowerPoint presentation), shows exactly how abstinence plays out in the sex-encouraging scheme at Planned Parenthood. ‘Abstinence,’ it says, ‘means choosing not to do any sexual activity that carries a risk for pregnancy or STD/HIV,’” says Rita Diller, national director for STOPP.org. “In other words, abstinence has nothing do with abstaining from sex acts. So long as the student avoids STDs and pregnancy, and is comfortable with what he or she is doing, it’s an anything goes.”
