Any such accusations should be immediately reported to the Salvation Army office and we will be promptly investigate the matter.

Go home, you are wasting your time. Those 20 just want to get arrested and make a big scene so they cry about the injustice of government and law enforcement... bla bla bla.

More than a dozen sex offenders living in Kansas nursing homes
It has a lot of use for parents and leaders of organizations that work with kids. This is not grandstanding by politicians, but a true desire to help the community. You can disagree with it, but it has a lot of realistic use. The other option is to get rid of the registry and leave them in jail longer. Which is the more cruel and unusual punishment?

PETA members provide unusual reminder about importance of spaying and neutering pets
Who cares what the message is, does anybody else think that a giant walking condom downtown is not appropriate? How do I explain this one to my young child?

Revenue secretary eyes Kansas tax changes
That's why I am a true believer in the flat tax. You paid less than 5% when others paid almost 50%. Is that everyone paying their "fair share"? Set a percentage and everyone pays that without exceptions.

Do you support a proposed law in the city of Lawrence that would afford protection to transgendered people?
What if I am born a white, caucasian male and yet I feel like I was born "in the wrong body". I feel like an African American... who am I? A caucasian or an African American?

U.S. disbelief in climate change persists, deepens
I'm not too worried. We will either evolve or become extinct. It is how it has supposedly happened for millions of years. To the polar bears, I say the same thing. Evolve or become extinct. Survival of the fittest! (Evolutionary theory can be very depressing.)

Lawrence City Commission approves gender identity ordinance
That makes me feel much better, if that is the case. That sounds reasonable and good, but is that in the wording? Would that be applicable to businesses as well that they must dress and appear like a woman, use a woman's name, and done so from some time "persistently"? And, how and who defines it? (I am not trying to be sarcastic or combative, just trying to figure out what this means.)
