Supreme court refuses to hear appeal on Circuit City snoop case
This is a case where violation of privacy was used to throw out evidence of child porn on a suspect's computer.
Read the story. The Circuit City dude may have stepped over the line, but he did the right thing and called the police. The courts initially threw the evidence out, but an appeals court reversed the finding. The suspect then took it to the Supreme Court, which refused to hear the case, allowing the prosecution to proceed - admitting the evidence from his computer.
There's an awful lot of bad news here, and certainly one could say the SC chickened out here by passing on the opportunity to set a precedent, but hey, it's still a win.

This is a campaign against GLSEN due to their "recommended reading list", a list of books detailing graphic and degrading sexual situations between children and adults who's only possible purpose could be to normalize adult/child sex.
Thank you, ARIADNE! That is awesome! We can use all the support we can get on this one.
Thanks Leith! Unfortunately a lot of people have been labeling anyone making a stand against GLSEN as homophobes... that just is not the case. For the majority of people who are against what GLSEN is doing, it is not about being anti-gay. It's about…
