Read MoreAmerica continues to move further away from our foundational values of faith in God and the rule of objective law based upon objective facts. We are now being required more and more to live in a society where we must daily transition in and out of the universe of objective reality into an alternative universe…
Read MoreThe color-blind principle does not mean we do not see a person’s skin color or detect that others are different from us (also referred to as color-indifference).

Read MoreOn June 17, 2020, The City Council of Norman Oklahoma voted to defund our police department by $885,000.00. Although there are other reasons, I argued these eight points in support of the police and against defunding. They are easily applicable to police departments across America.
