    Mayo on the Side: Michael Mayo | Sun Sentinel Blogs

  2. Newtown official calls for FAU professor's firing

    Mayo on the Side: Michael Mayo | Sun Sentinel Blogs
    I'm all for academic freedom and freedom of speech, but there's a not-so-fine line between critical thinking and crackpot lunacy. Florida Atlantic University professor James Tracy has clearly stepped over it. Tracy's doubts about the Sandy Hook Elementary...

  6. Coats defends his vote on guns

    Although polls nationwide and in Indiana show overwhelming support for tightening background checks for gun purchases,Sen. Dan Coats, Indiana's Republican senior senator, voted "no." He says most constituents who contacted him wanted him to do just that. In a wide-ranging interview in Mishawaka, Coats said the gun issue broughtmore calls, e-mails and letters to his office -- more than 40,000 -- than received on all other issues combined in the past two years. Coats said more than 75 percent of the messages were in opposition to tighter background checks in the proposal of Sens. Pat Toomey, R-Pa., and Joe Manchin, D-W.Va., which died in the Senate after failing to get a required 60 votes.

  7. Ebert grew more inspirational with age

    A number that jumps out from the coverage of Sun-Times film critic Roger Ebert's death Thursday at age 70: 306. That's the number of movie reviews he wrote last year, according to what turned out to be the final entry on his blog Tuesday. "The most of...

  8. The forgotten victim: Nancy Lanza

    The philosopher Kahlil Gibran's meditation on children is a touching favorite among parents who have read "The Prophet."
    The philosopher Kahlil Gibran's meditation on children is a touching favorite among parents who have read "The Prophet." In it, he captures perfectly the helplessness we feel as our children go out into the world, into the future, and necessarily...

  9. Let's be grown-ups on gay marriage and assault weapons

    Given the lack of interest in Congress in protecting children from guns, it was nice to hear a grown-up in Washington speak on behalf of kids, any kids — in this case, the nearly 40,000 kids who live with same-sex parents in California. "They want...

  10. Remembering Sandy Hook on the way to Congress

    From Washington to Annapolis to Hartford, Conn., wherever new gun restrictions are being debated, it's important to remember Sandy Hook. That's not a plea to the emotions. That's a plea to human decency and common sense — a reminder of the personal pledges we made to do something about the dangerously easy availability of assault weapons in a society that claims to be civilized.

  11. A grieving father's plea

    WASHINGTON -- Most of our top elected officials probably didn't notice -- they were too busy making fools of themselves over an idiotic budget "crisis" of their own manufacture -- but something worth remembering happened in Washington this week: A grieving parent pleaded softly for a ban on military-style weapons like the one used to kill his son.

  12. Signs that the NRA is losing

    Now that they're facing Washington's first serious push for new gun violence prevention laws since the Columbine massacre, gun lobbyists are grasping at straws — as in "straw" purchases.
