I very much enjoy paying for Andrea Chu Long’s work. Pamela Paul strikes me as largely fatuous but ACL mines a deeper point. nymag.com/intelligence....
Good-bye, Pamela Paul

The whole point of naming laws after victims is to stampede over the unpopular fact that the Bill of Rights revolves around protecting the rights of the accused
