Sound Off: Loud event

When you say "masquerading", does that mean that they actively encourage people to believe that it's a nonprofit event? Or do people just tend to assume its nonprofit, since these kind of events usually are? I haven't been to any of them, so I don't know.

Ad campaign accuses Kansas schools of low academic standards

Well, that was confusing. I wasn't sure what to think, until Dave showed up in the comments; any time that shill starts chiming in, I just assume that the exact opposite of what he says is true.

Residents upset at theft of American flags from retirement community

Maybe it was some of those communists that conservatives are always talking about? You know, the ones we thought all but vanished in this country decades ago?

Sound Off: Key conundrum

How do these things even get submitted? I've never seen any way to do it on this site.

Gov. Brownback says he'll attend President Obama's event in Lawrence if he's invited

I had a feeling someone would use the bombing as an excuse to gloat. Really says a lot about a persons character.

Questions abound about Obama's KU visit

What do you want him to do, dust for fingerprints? This is a law enforcement issue. You develop leads and follow them through; even if Obama has to make any decisions, don't worry, I'm pretty sure he gets cell phone coverage out here. I'm guessing he has ways of contacting people.

Lawhorn's Lawrence: Hopping around with downtown's Toad

Sure, stories should be accurate. No one disputes that. If the reporter overlooks a very minor detail, all you have to do is let them know. There's no need to act like a jerk about it.

Lawhorn's Lawrence: Hopping around with downtown's Toad

It's not that big a difference. They're both little vehicles that you scoot around on. It's pretty common to use terms like moped and scooter interchangeably; while technically incorrect, it makes zero difference in the story. A simple matter of fact correction is in order, sure, but not the know-it-all, spiteful correction we're used to seeing on this site.

Lawrence legislators say they hope Kansans will turn the tide on current policies

Dude! Have you even been to the rest of Kansas? Do you know anything about it? Crumbling infrastructure, dying communities, etc? It's pretty sad. I think we must be doing SOMETHING right here.
