A Kansas faith-based group is hoping to overturn a law allowing concealed weapons to be carried on college campuses across the state.
Lawrence-based Kansas Interfaith Action representatives are visiting state universities to increase awareness of the issue and raise money. The Lawrence Journal-World (http://bit.ly/2dnrBKy ) reports Rabbi Moti Rieber says the group also plans to lobby the Legislature to change the law once representatives return to session in January. |

So-called "faith-based groups" should mind their own business. If they want to rely on pulling faith out of their pockets to stop muggers, so be it. There's no accounting for stupidity. But leave the rest of us the hell alone. |

QUOTES
TO REMEMBER |
After having thus successively taken each member of the community in its powerful grasp and fashioned him at will, the supreme power then extends its arm over the whole community. It covers the surface of society with a network of small, complicated rules, minute and uniform, through which the most original minds and the most energetic characters cannot penetrate, to rise above the crowd. The will of man is not shattered, but softened, bent, and guided; men seldom forced by it to act, but they are constantly restrained from acting. Such a power does not destroy, but it prevents existence; it does not tyrannize, but it compresses, enervates, extinguishes, and stupefies a people, till each nation is reduced to nothing better than a flock of timid and industrious animals, of which the government is the shepherd. — Alexis de Tocqueville |
