I can’t say I always knew who Kenny Rogers was. I knew about that one song that gave out bad poker advice, and vaguely about some kind of island in a stream, but I never grew to love Kenny for many years.

Erica, your article was cohesive and methodical. It used evidence effectively to demonstrate the problem in question and logically propose new information. It is critical to think about the massive amounts of incarcerated in America and life after prison, and you did a great job of demonstrating that.

Xavier, this article is thoroughly impressive. You used extensive objectivity and factual evidence tied in with your subjective viewpoint of the problem at hand.

Your train of logic and deduction was coherent and clear. I think your annotations…[Read more]

In Jacob Sullum’s “Shots in the Dark” piece, he discusses the inefficacy of gun control. He claims that gun restriction has done nothing at worst, and is subtle at best. He supports this claim by bringing up th
