So the largest, most expensive, and most well trained army in the world doesn't trust their soldiers to carry guns around everywhere, but we're supposed to trust any idiot dumb enough to think his life is in constant danger, but smart enough to fill his name in on an application?

KU chancellor's pay ranks 86th among U.S. public university leaders
Probably in much the same way as everybody else's...which is none of your business. Get a life.

I'm pretty sure many WELL-TRAINED people were armed at Ft. Hood. How many untrained civilians with guns does it take to stop a shooting on an army base?
Never mind, let's just pretend that if EVERYBODY has a gun, we'll be safer. Well, except for those under 21, they don't get the "right to defend themselves."

So then you don't know anybody personally that has been shot on a university campus?
Do you even know anybody that spends any time on campus?
Why do you care if no guns are allowed on campus? Has there been some jump in crime against non-students on campuses in this state? Because the governing bodies and the students of said campuses have been quite clear in their opposition to guns on THEIR campus.

"relax and wait for the sky to actually fall before you start complaining"
Translation: Wait for someone to get shot accidentally before you start complaining.
Can you name just one person you know personally that has been shot on a university campus in Kansas?
Since the age limit is 21, that would only eliminate at most HALF of the underclassmen, and nowhere near half the student body as a whole. Added safety bonus, they can begin carrying their guns around the same day they can legally drink alcohol.
If you are so afraid of life in this country you need to carry a gun, don't go to the KU campus, you probably don't already.

Rules tighten on TANF recipients
If it can't survive on its own, and hasn't been born, it's not living.
Forcing people to have children they know they don't want and are sure they can't afford...and then complaining about the whopping $282/month they receive so said child may actually have a dry place to sleep and some form of nutrition is just ridiculous. To argue otherwise is denial of the truth.

Rules tighten on TANF recipients
Cool story...actually you don't have to go back for 12 weeks under said guidelines, so it's just harsh, not fair.

Everyday it seems this same state government makes sure that you HAVE to have them...unless of course you have found a way to keep the poor and the young from having sex.

KU officials dispute cash balance list circulated by House Republican leaders who want to cut higher ed
Yeah, those oil companies sure don't make a profit or sit on any cash reserves. Maybe they need some more subsidies.
