My Assault on Reason

Late last Friday afternoon I thought I'd try implementing an idea on how to get the latest Penn State scandal revelations into the public discussion.  I thought I'd go to Reason's Hit and Run blog and post comments to most of their writers recent posts. So I commented on these posts and tried to make them at least tangentially related to the content covered:

How To Talk to People Who Think You're Evil and/or Insane: Podcast

The Hidden Legacy of Columbine: Ignorance About School Violence

Some California Cities Are Making It Harder to Quit Smoking

Southern Poverty Law Center Scraps Its Anti-Muslim Hate List

CDC, in Surveys It Never Bothered Making Public, Provides More Evidence That Plenty of Americans Innocently Defend Themselves with Guns

When I went back to look at them Saturday, I found that my comments had been deleted and that, while I was allowed to log in, I was not allowed to comment.

Ziegler's Amazon Review Gone -- Picture Remains

I recently read the book, Silent No More. My local library had it in a digital form that I could download to my computer, where it would remain on my computer until it expired on the due date. I also wrote an Amazon review. This is the book by victim number one in the case against Jerry Sandusky. While scrolling down the Amazon page for this book, I was happy to see a picture of John Ziegler waiting to assault the consciences of any of the principals of this case who happen to do the same. I even mentioned it in my review. But I couldn't find any way to click from this picture to the review.
