By Selwyn Duke When the government tries to force businessmen to service affairs they find morally objectionable, their first instinct if they’re principled is defiance. Many have already taken this approach, including upstate New York farmers who face $13,000 in fines for refusing to host faux weddings on their property; and 70-year-old Washington state florist…

By Selwyn Duke “You know, the Ten Commandments, it says you can’t commit adultery; it says you need to honor your father and mother. If someone didn’t honor their parents or commit[ed] adultery, would you serve them?” This question was posed by CNN reporter Gary Tuchman to Georgia florist Melissa Jeffcoat, who had previously said…

By Selwyn Duke Indiana Republicans possibly were trying to do their best impression of a cheap tent, but there perhaps hasn’t been such a quick folding since the collapse of the Maginot Line. The state’s Religious Freedom Restoration act, despite Governor Mike Pence’s feints to the contrary, was clearly intended to offer protection to bakers,…

By Selwyn Duke We’ve heard much recently about the Muslim-run child sex-trafficking rings that have plagued Britain and that, for most of the last 15 years, had been covered up by the nation’s authorities. But it appears U.K. officials are old hands at protecting pedophiles, as a shocking story about powerful child molesters embedded deep…

By Selwyn Duke Heather Barwick’s testimonial against faux marriage is particularly powerful. While having been raised by two lesbians, she’s no bitter child rebelling against a parent. In fact, she expresses deep love for the women who nurtured her, and she used to support faux marriage herself. But after tying the knot and witnessing the…

By Selwyn Duke “A gun store opened in Manhattan….” It sounds like the beginning of a story — or a tale. And the effort essentially was fiction. Critics would say its message was fiction, too. As the salesman behind the counter showed one couple a firearm, he said to the husband, “It’s the easiest gun…

By Selwyn Duke The five American students were not allowed to display their American-flag T-shirts because Mexican students might be offended and become violent. This certainly might be expected in Chihuahua, or Veracruz, or Tijuana. But it happened in Morgan Hill — California — in the USA. The American schoolboys were given a choice: turn…

By Selwyn Duke The latest shootings of policemen in Ferguson and the town’s riots last year were incited by race-baiting black leaders — such as Barack Obama and Eric Holder. So says black minister Jesse Lee Peterson, head of the Brotherhood Organization of a New Destiny. Moreover, says the reverend, blacks are fertile ground for…
