I believe Florida’s new gang-classification law crosses a dangerous line. A post, a lyric, a symbol, or an association should not be enough to brand someone a criminal. Fight real crime, but don't violate rights to do it.

This week's UNSPUN Article was inspired by a comment @RyanThomasTalks made on here. This is one stance that tends to be an outlier from my traditional libertarian roots. Enjoy!

Latest newsletter is up! I thought I'd expound on my original post with something a little more long-form.

My full monologue for today’s @spinstatepod 9/11 Remembrance Special. “Before we begin, a content note: today’s conversation addresses the terrorist attacks of September 11, 2001, the loss of life that day, and the continuing impact on survivors, first responders, families, and communities. Twenty-five years later, September 11 remains a date that carries an unusual kind of weight. For many Americans, it is one of those days remembered in fragments: where they were, who they were with, the television images, the phone calls, the confusion, and then the realization that the country had changed in a matter of hours. But we should be careful with memory. September 11 is not merely a marker in political history, a cable-news anniversary, or a collection of images replayed year after year. It was, first and foremost, a human catastrophe. 2,977 people were killed in the attacks on September 11, 2001: people at work, people traveling, first responders who ran toward danger, military and civilian personnel at the Pentagon, and the passengers and crew aboard the hijacked flights. The attacks involved four commercial airplanes. Two were flown into the World Trade Center towers, one struck the Pentagon, and United Airlines Flight 93 crashed in Somerset County, Pennsylvania, after passengers and crew fought back. And the loss did not end that morning. For more than two decades, responders, survivors, residents, workers, and students exposed to dust, smoke, debris, and trauma have continued to face serious physical and mental-health consequences. Thousands are still diagnosed with 9/11-related conditions, a fact that reminds us that remembrance is not only about looking backward. It also means recognizing those who are still living with what happened. Today, we are not here to exploit grief or to turn this day into a partisan argument. There are legitimate and difficult discussions about the failures that preceded the attacks, the policies that followed, the wars, civil-liberties debates, intelligence and security reforms, and the way the country changed. But those discussions should begin with humility—and with the people at the center of the story. So our goal today is simple: to remember with care, to talk honestly about the day and its aftermath, and to ask what responsible memory looks like for people who lived through it and for generations who know it only through history, family stories, memorials, and recordings. We will make space for personal memories. We will separate verified history from speculation. And we will remember that the most important names in this conversation are not those of pundits or politicians, but those of the people who never came home. Thank you for spending this time with us. Enjoy the show.” Full show releases at 12pm EST.
