What happened to the secular state? Is America disappearing as arch-conservatives attack everything outside their view of God and country? Is the anti-gay, anti-abortion, anti-government domestic terrorist Eric Rudolph more a kindred spirit with today's Republican leadership than Karol Wojtyla? We've had weeks of news dominated by the hard right: Terri Schaivo's feeding tube; Tom Delay's attacks on judges; the Pope 24-7; the Arizona Minutemen's border patrols. Who is standing up for secular society? For NOT taking the law into one's own hands?

Our report from the border of the law and lawless includes Arizona Democratic State Rep. KYRSTEN SINEMA, Arizona Minuteman Project co-founder CHRIS SIMCOX and Arizona ACLU Vice-President CAROLYN TROWBRIDGE. We check in with "Guantanamo: Honor bound to defend Freedom," the play about U.S. abuses in the war on terrorism and NYC songwriter-singer NORA YORK and her new CD "What I Want."

Of course, violating firearm...

Of course, violating firearms laws is a badge of honor for anti-american rightwing bigots like Simcox. But just so ya know...

Anti-Immigrant Extremism

Chris Simcox, the rabble-rousing newspaper publisher who organized the Civil Homeland Defense militia last fall in Arizona, pleaded not guilty on Aug. 21 to three misdemeanor weapons charges. Simcox, whose trial date has not been set, was nabbed while carrying a firearm on National Park Service land, and he also is charged with lying to a ranger about the gun.
