Lawrence hosts mayor of Greek sister city this week
I guess our City Officials will be taking their annual free vacation (paid out of city funds) to Greece this year. Aren't those Sister Cities Great? Where in the world will the next Sister City be?

Editorial: Police needs
"Both a sales tax and a property tax increase have been discussed as ways to finance the project, which has competed for attention and dollars with the library, the recreation center and the sewer treatment plant."
Voting for this is agreeing to both a sales tax increase and a property tax increase. Haven't we reached the bottom of the barrel yet, digging for money to spend on new projects?

I hope neither driver involved was texting like the 16 year old south of KC that pulled out in front of a 18 wheeler..

Would you rather have a lower income tax and higher sales tax, or lower sales tax and higher income tax?
Which of these two evils do you prefer? Neither. Sales tax always goes up and never goes down. That makes our state's businesses at a disadvantage for sales. Income taxes have a way to do the same as sales tax, always getting higher. However income taxes eventually can be brought down to a manageable level.

Editorial: Gun law costly
I am trying to understand why everyone thinks that now that the 8" plastic signs that says "NO GUNS ALLOWED" have been taken down, that the Concealed Carry Holders are suddenly going to turn violent and start shooting up the campus. The mind set seems to be that the signs were 100% effective and without them there will have to be metal detectors and guards at every door to do what those 8" plastic signs were doing. Can anyone please explain what has changed to cause this fear of attack from your friends and neighbors that may have a concealed carry license? Violence hasn't happened in the last 6 years, it is not going to happen now.

Higher education officials say concealed carry on campus probably inevitable in the future
As of February 1, 2013 there were a total of 52,317 permits issued and in effect for the whole state of Kansas. How many of those do you think live in Lawrence or attend KU?
