It is very loud and cluttered with WAY too much in the sidebars.
My intent in sharing this is not to be critical, but too encourage you into investigating a more reader-friendly content focused design with no clutter in the sidebars.
This comment is meant for you, not the public. Feel free to delete it after reading it. I won't be offended.
Just trying to help.

Whatever happened to Caspar.
He didn't like the fact that I stopped putting up with his BS and went away.

Although, the article doesn't say it is "inaccurate," rather the article (at monticello) claims that this is a quote of Thomas Jefferson quoting someone else.
The original link given as the source of the quote (at foundersquotes.com) explains this.

I merely pointed out that one sentence in the article is begging to be misunderstood.
Private security guards "legally carry badges and guns" and yet they are not agencies of civil government.
Reread my comment.

Don't private security guards carry badges and guns? Does that mean that every business or organization which hires security guards is an agency of civil government?
How about a church which has security guards that have badges and guns. Is the church now an agency of civil government?
I think it would have been more accurate to say "When any institution’s agents carries badges and guns by legislative authority, it is an agency of civil government."
I think that was probably what the author meant, judging by the context. It is an important distinction though, because most people will interpret "legally" to mean "not restricted by law" as opposed to "instituted by law."

Although, I still stand by the principle that I originally stated. It was right to presume innocence until guilt was proven. That will always be right. Especially for people reading blogs who don't have all of the evidence in front of them.

That's what your profile says.
I assumed that readers of my comment would know that "innocent until proven guilty" is short for "PRESUMED innocent until proven guilty."
Of course I didn't KNOW that he was innocent, but I presumed so until he'd been proven guilty before a jury of his peers. Or until he admitted it. Now he has admitted it.
How can someone who claims to be focused on "science, logic, and common sense" vs. "ignorance, superstition, and fear" be so logically silly? Do you NOT understand the importance of the "innocent until proven guilty" concept?
If defending that great American tradition is "sick" then call me "sick." If what you are doing is called "science, logic, and common sense" then I want nothing to do with those things.
Of course my point of view is not "sick" and the one you presented is neither "scientific," "logical," nor consistent with "common sense."
At least the blog author admits that he is "jaded" and is prepared to allow any of the accused who turn out to be not guilty to come on here and defend themselves.
