Random drug tests not required

Are police officers not on a random drug screen like the rest of the city employee's? Are any of the court house employee's subject to a randon drug check? It seems to me that the people that need to be tested, law makers, law enforcement, and the unemployed are NOT, but the average working people are. It doesn't make sense to me.

Bill introduced to legalize marijuana in Kansas

If they don't want to legalize pot they should at least decriminanize small amounts. It should be a fine at most, for small amounts for personal consumption. Many states are changing their laws in this direction.

Governor proposes tax hikes

Why don't they tax the internet sales of products? It is a revenue source that deserves to be taxed. We have to pay taxes for everything else that we buy. It would also help the local stores if they were on a more level playing field.

Unpatriotic Conservatives Overreact to President Obama Speaking to Students in National Address on Educational Success.

It is my understanding that the uproar isn't about the speech itself, but about the government "lesson plans" that go along with it.

Blight Be Gone

I can tell you what happens when you clean up an eyesore in the city limits of Emporia. I now pay TWICE the property tax that I did for my property. That is how this city treats a property owner that is trying to make Emporia a nicer place to live.

Motorcyclist critically injured

Irish: Here is the answer to your question. It is because alot of motorcycle riders and rights activists fight to keep our right to decide for ourselves.

A good use

My idea is to install tubes into south Weaver St and raise it up to allow a way to town during flooding. The city has talked about a truck route before and this route could be used for that too.
