Opponents of drug testing for welfare benefits see it as hassling the poor; Brownback says it will help

I have to be tested to earn it. The government then takes it from me to give to the less fortunate. They too ought to be tested to get (My Money) it!!! Also please note, they do not have to take the drug test, nobody is making them!!

City planners recommending denial of proposed Menard's store; Planning Commission to debate project Monday

Oh give me a break. How many more Business's are you guys going to run off?? I already have to run to Kansas City or Topeka half the time to find a good restaurant to eat at as well as do a lot of my shopping!

How about we keep some of those tax dollars here?

Advocates from both sides of gun control debate discuss with community

I think what we've forgotten is that WE live in a free country. If you don't like it, leave!! I will NOT allow anyone to infringe on MY rights!! I've lost family members in the armed services fighting for these rights and I will not give them up without a fight.

I think we have also forgotten that if someone wants to cause large causalities they will find a way. Look at the Boston Marathon!!!! Explosives are illegal but yet I can go to the grocery store and buy the stuff to make a bomb.

Wake up people. Trying to take away or restrict my right to purchase and own a firearm is not going to fix the mental illness in this country!! It is time to take another approach like requiring or allowing Law Enforcement access to mental health records so that when a medical professional comes across a patient that it mentally ill and poses a threat, the real professionals can take action!!

Thank you NRA!!

Police cite driver suspected in downtown accident with cyclists

That's why bicyclists need to stay on the bike paths and sidewalks! Lets see, a 3500 lb car VS a 160 lb bicycle, who's gonna win that one???? Duhhhh

Lawrence approves citywide curbside recycling program to begin in October 2014

Mike Amyx is the only guy on there with any brains. We also need to get rid of Chad and get a new Mayor!!

This is one way to attract retirees to Lawrence!! Just keep raising the prices on everything. I am moving to Vegas, there are no property taxes on homes!

Democrats say tax cuts are tax shifts

How about everyone just pay their own way!!! Problem solved!

Everyone always wanting something for nothing! That's not how it works!

No wonder some of Doctors in this town stopped taking Medicaid. Do you really think all these doctors went to school for ten years just so you all could have free healthcare??? NOT!
