Common Criminal

Despite an enormous crowd of armed individuals, Richmond's gun-rally on Monday proved to be a rather peaceful affair.  How, then, do I still find myself angry about Monday's events?  Was the media wrong to claim that this could have been Charlottesville 2.0?  Find out on Common Criminal Episode 078: RE State of Emergency

Things continue to heat up in Virginia.  Governor Northam declares a state of emergency in the days leading up to what will prove to be the largest pro 2A rally the state has ever seen.  The capitol building is seeing increased security, and the governor declares the area a gun-free zone.  What can we expect to see at the rally this Monday?  Find out on Common Criminal Episode 077: State of Emergency

Elizabeth Warren launches a barrage of personal attacks against Bernie Sanders, just as Nancy Pelosi hands impeachment of Trump over to the senate.  In the midst of strange gamesmanship on the part of Pelosi, I ask myself if this is another case of Pelosi and establishment democrats hoping to hide the ball.  How does Warren's campaign relate to impeachment?  Is this an attempt by the DNC to derail Bernie's campaign (again)?  Let's take a deep dive in Common Criminal Episode 076: Feel the Bern

The highest paid athletes in the world truly are super-human.... but in addition to superior genetics and years of training and discipline, we know the secret ingredient they use to get beyond the top 1% of performers.  Would we still admire professional sportsman if these individuals were just... regular people?  Is the real sport happening behind the scenes as research teams compete to turn highly-skilled sportsmen into super-humans?  Let's talk about it on Common Criminal Episode 075: Juiced

Last year we saw a large group of comedians calling out call-out culture and cancel culture.  Just this week, comedian Ricky Gervais brought this sentiment straight to the Golden Globes, and while we were laughing the celebrities in the audience were mostly silent.  What effect does cancel-culture have on common people?  What is the reaction when the media monolith claims "nobody cares" while millions are listening?  Let's talk about it on Common Criminal Episode 074: Outrage Culture

In the last several weeks the state of Virginia has been preparing for some of the biggest reforms in gun-laws the state has ever seen.  As the governor raises the budget for incarceration facilities, local sheriffs from nearly every county in the state have declared their districts as "2nd Amendment Sanctuaries."  As the date to vote on these new referendums draws closer we must ask:  What specifically do these laws say that have gun-owners up in arms?  What can we expect to happen if these changes are voted into law?  Is this another instance of lawmakers hiding the ball?  Find out on Common Criminal Episode 072: Ralph Northam vs the State of Virginia

In a recent article featured in The Wall Street Journal, allegations of corruption and misspending have been leveled against the Catholic Church (again).  At first glance, this simply looks like another low-hanging-fruit hit-piece, but is it something more?  Is the WSJ actually hoping to assist Pope Francis with their writings, and using bombastic headlines to drive clicks?  Listen to Common Criminal Episode 070: The Pope and Peter's Pence to find out, and click the link below to decide for yourself.
