Women and the Second Amendment: What the Democrats Did to Jaime Caetano v. Massachusetts (2016)

One can see the true heart of the Democrats' so-called concern for the most vulnerable among us in Caetano v. Massachusetts, decided just a month after Justice Scalia died, in March of 2016. They criminalized a woman for innocent conduct. The Republicans corrected this. Democrats and some Republicans have made the grave error of upending the true purpose of government : by criminalizing paradigmatically innocent conduct. The Republican Professor is a pro-non-criminalization-of-innocent-conduct podcast. The Republican Professor is produced and hosted by Dr. Lucas J. Mather, Ph.D.

Why the Court's majority is wrong in Bostock v. Clayton County Georgia (2020)(part 9 in a series) about the faulty assumption that unexamined and unexplained transgenderism premises about sex and gender are properly included under "sex discrimination" language in Title VII of the 1964 Civil Rights Act --This continues to be a real hoot. Part 9: We continue our in-depth examination of sex, gender, and separation of powers in the US Supreme Court decision Bostock v. Clayton County, GA 590 U.S. 644 (2020): the Republican dispute, how to understand it, and what to do about it. We continue discussing the Republican dissenting opinion of Justice Alito (joined by Thomas) from his Roman numeral I.B through his II.C, stopping at but not commencing his II.D. We'll have one more episode of Alito's dissent (joined by Thomas) and and then one further one on Kavanaugh's dissent, so two more episodes on this Supreme Court case. Part 9.

We continue our discussion of an entry in the 1963 Rand McNally publication, edited by Leonard Strauss and Joseph Cropsey, called "History of Political Philosophy." This episode contains discussion of pages 72 thru the middle of page 80 covering Book I of the Politics. That entry on Aristotle is by Harry V. Jaffa, who famously applied his understanding of Political Philosophy to the history of the Republican Party in American politics, and who, as such, influenced me profoundly through my mentors, who were mentored by him. He is thus one of my intellectual grandfathers. We continue our discussion of Harry Jaffa on Aristotle, pp. 72 thru the middle of page 80 covering Book I of Aristotle's Politics, discussing an entry published the year before the author wrote one of the most infamous (or famous, depending) Aristotelean speeches for 1964 presidential candidate Barry Goldwater (R, AZ). Jaffa also wrote one of the most influential phenomenological comparisons of the Democratic and the Republican parties using classical political philosophy for the political phenomenology in "Crisis of the House Divided" (University of Chicago Press) This episode includes a reading from Psalm 143 (KJV) and Streams in the Desert January 22nd (Cowman Publications: Los Feliz Station Lost Angeles, Calif. 1925).

This is Part 8 in a series noting that 2025 is the 40th Anniversary of Harvard University Press' 1985 publication of Richard A. Epstein's "Takings: Private Property and the Power of Eminent Domain." We continue our celebration of this anniversary with a fair use and transformative reading, continuing and now beginning chapter 4 in a new section which Richard calls ""Takings Prima Facia," which makes the analogy between private law takings in the common law harm tradition and the public law takings where the government is a defendant. He titles chapter "Takings and Torts," because he's taking a look at political philosophy and the American constitutional order, how these things interact using argument by analogy with the common law/private law tradition, ensconced as it is in the purpose of the Constitution. That moral purpose is the protection of individual liberty against claims by a simple majority in a democracy, or by the government in a taking of private property. Today we discuss the subsection on the Federal Tort Claims Act from pp. 41-47, Excellent stuff here. Excellent. Every college student should read this book. It's a superb introduction to the political philosophy of the American regime. Praise the Lord. We'd like to thank Harvard University Press for making this material available and Richard Epstein for writing it. Make sure you buy the book and follow along. It's very important for you to have your own copy on your own bookshelf, and to begin to master this material. Support your local book dealer. See if they have a copy of it, or if they'd mind keeping an eye out for you. I always encourage buying physical books, objects you can have, hold, cherish, learn from, display on your bookshelf as a topic of conversation, things you can pass on to the next generation with your notes in them, things that do not depend upon electricity. Toward that end: Go to Harvard University Press for more selections available for purchase. Please support the publisher and your local booksellers.
