Bid for recreation center comes in about $10 million lower than expected; questions grow over other cost estimates

We can't just bypass representative democracy whenever we feel like it. You couldn't get your council elected in an incredibly blue city and now you want to bypass the voters of Lawrence? I've agreed with your stance on this all along but we can't bypass our system based on our opinions. We need to let the voters of Lawrence feel the pain of their decision for anything to ever change.

Road work on K-10 bypass begins Friday; downtown and 23rd Street bridges reopen

yeah...other than the work is unnecessary. If you think it is necessary or if you think returning money means wastefully spending it.....then you need to revisit what 'idiotic' means.

....and you know this is not charity work from the Feds? Are you trying to say that Kansas doesn't get any money from the Fed for infrastructure? Republicans are just as irresponsible as Demorats. They just happen to look out for everyone...not just the ones who don't contribute. Either way...it is a waste of money. A trait that is dominant within the Obama administration. This is simply charity work. The road is not in need of repair and certainly not resurfacing.

There is nothing wrong with the pavement between the turnpike and 59.
More Obama charity work I presume.

Gov. Brownback signs into law concealed carry measure; campuses exempt for four years

Your family is asleep. I break into your house and am creeping around with a gun. Are you justified in shooting me? Of course you are. No sane American, police or judge will say no. Then what is the difference if I am walking through KU's campus with my family as an armed criminal opens fire on civilians? (Va Tech) Why does the logic somehow change and that I can't defend my family wherever I go?

It is common knowledge that states where conceal carry is up...crime is down.
Here are a couple good examples and there are many more:

Exactly. And when you can show me data that legal gun owners committed these crimes...you will have a valid point. Until then your admission that "The crime rate rises every year" only justifies the need to uphold the constitution and continue to allow people to defend themselves. Thanks for making my point.

Here's the problem Chancellor Bernadette Gray-Little and the unwise students with the same juvenile opinions: Constitutional rights do not change with the winds of public opinion. Who cares what people on campus want? It's not about them. It's about an American's right to protect themselves. That's it.
