"They ignore the plain evidence of dozens of campuses in several states with combined decades of experience of legal carry on campus not producing -any- of the “fears and concerns” they state."

So why are negligent discharges up on campuses who've allowed concealed carry? Were you the "responsible gun owner" who left his shooting iron in the crapper last year at UAF? Or maybe 1/3 who've left unsecured firearms around in the past 3 months, also at UAF?

It's interesting that many Springfield residents, including the Mayor, have made it clear that Mr. Ralston does not represent the values of their City.  You don't have to be a flaming Liberal to find Mr. Ralston's values, actions and comments offensive.  Springfield, from all I've seen and read over the last 20 years, has become a moderate, "right-of-center" business friendly, diverse community.  It's no longer the "Springtucky" Mr. Ralston represents.

Well I have no doubt that that is the version of the story Murkowski chooses to believe but it's not the truth. There would have been no wait lists in the Phoenix VA, McCains hometown VA, if they had been adequately funded to be able to hire more clerks as well as healthcare providers. Sanders got McCain to come on board as cosponsor of essentially the same bill just to get some of the recalcitrant  Republican senators on board. Why didn't McCain of all people know what was happening at the Phoenix VA do you suppose? Murkowski, Sullivan and Young endorsed the odious Trump even after he called Mexicans rapists and murderers, proposed a ban on all Muslims coming to America and then more recently the claim that a judge could not be trusted to preside over a fair trial because he was of Mexican heritage though born in America to parents who came here before Drumpf's parents did.

So, Walker decides not to reappoint Board of game member Mumford, then after failing to get Roland Maw on the fish board appoints Mumford to the fish board, who shortly there after decides he wants off the fish board, he then replaces Mumford from the game board with a man who does not get confirmed.  Leaving the board short of its seven members. Fish and Game board politics are very damaging. Walker has found it out ever since he appointed his pal Maw to the fish board who now faces multiple felony counts. His subsequent  fish and game board choices have cost him much political capital with the legislature and will IMO cost him dearly if he chooses to run for a second term.

The CDC is giving you obviously sound advice.

Only women can harm their babies. Only women can take responsibility for their health by preventing harm to their fetuses or at least taking caution not to get knocked up while doing damaging behavior to their bodies and anything connected to their body like their fetus.

There is no logical reason why men would need to use condoms or get a vasectomy as you recommended because drinking by the male is not known to impact the baby or health of the sperm significantly, although it is known to have an impact on health of the adult overall and that might impact DNA and sperm quality..

Also the affordable health care act made birth control free including IUDs for all women regardless of poverty so the CDC is already giving it out for free. All women who are poor qualify for Medicaid that covers birth control and anyone making money will have private insurance through the exchanges or their employer that pays for it.

Guestsquared:  It's really too bad you can't manage to discuss an issue without inserting one or more personal insults.  Again, may I suggest disagreeing with you on this issue or any other does make a person, ipso facto, "ill-informed." I could reply with a like comment and we could waste time and energy exchanging insults.  I'm not interested in doing that. 

 We know, although you and the others who support this law will never acknowledge it,  that it was specifically written to "discourage" panhandling by punishing anyone who donats to panhandlers from a car.   This ban, of course, eliminates the primary source of contributions to panhandlers. It's designed to give Springfield panhandlers the "bum's rush", while hopefully passing the test of its Constitutionality.  It may be supported by the Courts, it may not be.  As I've repeatedly said, that is the Courts' responsibility.  We'll likely get to see how it "plays out."

So a thousand times 15 years is 15,000 years.  That would be a sentence more appropriate for Ellis.  3 months is a freakin' joke.

Can you produce any information about this group that does not stem from the Stand for Children or IP-65 websites? A Facebook page doesn't count.

Kyle, this is nonsense and a common Conservative stereotype and is incredibly ignorant as to how many people have to live.  I have family members and know many others that (not all  the same person) have worked hard all of their lives, gotten education, were in business. Many cannot find work despite trying and when they do it pays the meager minimum wage with no benefits or get worked 39.5 hours a week so they get less pay and no benefits.  Many of them have college degrees, many of them are VETERANS who served their country and now are dumped on the side of the road. Many of them worked for decades and got laid off by some cost cutting measure to increase stock prices and now can't find anything else. 

The American adage that all you have to do is work hard, save, get education and you will do fine is just a fairly tale for many and an increasing amount of Americans because the system is *broken* and works for a little group of people

Major colleges do because they draw over 50,ooo people per game for many football games and they get huge amounts of TV money.  UAA hockey used to bring in enough to cover their costs and supply some money for other sports as well.   They no longer bring in big money.   On top of that , even with UAA students given free tickets and transportation to many events , around 90 percent don't even attend to support their own school.  The UAA sports budget is around 10. 5 million a year , and they are trying to cut around 1.7 million.  The ski team , track team , and gymnastic's teams should be cut without delay---for starters .  The Shootout should be canceled after this year .    My guess , and it's only a guess---is that all of UAA's sports teams draw around 500 grand total from all ticket sales from all the sports.  Put another way---concerts held at the new sports arena do ten times better than all of UAA's sports teams put together .

Good article.  Walker is indeed a bureaucracy preservationist.  He is the opposite of oil company execs that look at the face of economic reality, i.e. low oil prices, and cut 30%.  Walker never got the memo about oil prices not being at $140 any more.  Probably because he's been too busy working at his gasline to nowhere project.

Anecdotal evidence is not a strong argument. That a few people do well without degrees does not change the fact that the vast majority of dropouts face dismal employment prospects. And besides, nobody is saying the students are stupid. The article and most comments are saying the schools in combination, probably, with many of the parents, and society, are failing the students, because Oregon ranks near the bottom at high school graduation rates and college preparedness. Presumably, the states and nations that are doing better are doing better not because of any genetic difference in their young people, but because of a different set of academic values and standards.

To answer your question, I would probably shoot the moose but not the dog. Big difference between a 1,500 lb moose barreling at you and an 80 lb dog. Also knowing what I know from my life in Alaska: If a moose is behaving that way it fully intends to stomp your a** into the ground. A dog behaving that way, in the vast majority of circumstances, is not going to attack you. If he was in such extreme fear of his childs life he could have simply placed himself between his child and the dog -- that would be a normal, healthy reaction on the part of any parent.

Assuming Gary Johnson earns the Libertarian Party nomination this weekend (and it seems likely), he'll already be on the ballot in all fifty states.  He's also polling at 10% right now, not bad for a little known candidate from a third party.  He's the former Republican governor of Democratic leaning New Mexico where he was very popular across the board.  Smart Republicans are in short supply this year, as the primary has made abundantly clear, but the smart ones do have a choice, as do nonpartisans and Democrats who can't hold their noses tightly enough to vote for Hillary Clinton.  If we're going to shake things up this year, let's do so with someone who's honest, something that cannot be said for either Clinton or Donald Trump.

We must be careful to recognize that there have been other circumstances that appear to be racially motivated. When those occur, police departments need to re-evaluate their way of doing things.

However, the biggest reform that should occur is the understanding that ALL LIVES MATTER. Cops should never treat the public as if we are all criminals in need of correction (or the Department of ), but as individuals who by and large aren't meaning to break the increasingly complex laws of this increasingly tyrannical government. If they approached all of their jobs in that way, there would be a whole lot fewer shootings, period! Any time a cop shoots a civilian, the facts should be screened by a citizen jury to assure there is no cover-up and if that jury decides there is cause, the cop should go to trial for Murder 1. Right there, shootings would drop dramatically.

Ohio Dan has a mouth like a Dungeness Crab...Young looks surprised...and Lisa looks "motherly". I never get called on these polls! I love disseminating them. As an Undeclared turned Democrat for Bernie, these three are republicans. All three have done crappy things to Alaska and her people, and all three have done something positive. You have to go back to election to compare and see if they're worth keeping. Longevity gets the nod every time, as well as familiarity. Too bad. It's those "who?" people that skew the elections. Feel The Bern, Friends.

If you have no integrity with the publicly stated beliefs of your religious denomination, that's between you and God. You are a private citizen, believe as you wish. 

But, your fellow Conservative Baptist Imago Dei church-member, Jules Bailey, has put the integrity of his beliefs (or, more accurately, lack of integrity, if I'm following his waffling correctly), up for public scrutiny. 

People who choose to become paid public figures, must expect to be scrutinized as such. And, it's a bit naïve for an Evangelical Christian to run for public office, in Portland, and not expect to be held accountable for the history of his chosen religion, particularly the past 30 years here in Portland (OCA, Oregon Family Council, etc.)

Japan and Germany declared war on the US. Iraq did not. 

Cheney, W's puppet master,  said Iraq was involved in the 911 attacks. He lied! He said we would be greeted as liberators. Another lie! He said democracy would spread across the Middle East. Yet another lie! Instead we got the biggest foreign policy disaster since Vietnam 

Bush said the United States of America does NOT torture. A pack of lies!

Wasting money on stupid wars, certainly does have bearing on a discussion about debt, deficit, and what we can afford to do in THIS country. We should be doing nation building at home, NOT in the Middle East. 

What good is a health care system that leaves millions of people uncovered?
Output: Yes
In order to understand the limits of science, one must be a scientist.  To lay folks, science may appear to be firmly based and capable of explaining virtually everything in our universe.  A scientist, or at least some scientists, see that our understanding of many things is shallow and based on massive extrapolation from what we do know.  It pays for all to keep open minds.  Our scientific understandings of origins is muddy.  The understanding only appears clear when viewed from a distance without detail.  There are many mysterious that science still has no testable understanding of.

Dall sheep in Alaska are found on high, almost inaccessible mountains. But if you train your binoculars on them, they come down the mountain to see what the flashy thing is. After walking five or ten miles, they recognize a human and come over to say howdy. They might rub up against you as a form of greeting. Now if you've been rolling in the hay with your domestic sheep or goats, the little critters on you might get transferred to the wild sheep. This seems to be the most likely theory of how disease can be transferred. That's my story and I'm sticking to it.

To me, your opening sentence, "Sorry about your friend," sounds both insincere and callous. Especially when you go on to defend the criminals and vagrants that litter downtown, proclaiming that "All city centers" will devolve into chaos and violence. We are not (yet) a society without morals or standards. We need not devolve into some sort of urban jungle. For myself, I choose to remain hopeful even when it seems that the good people of Eugene are "tolerant" to the point of their own collective suicide.

Sounds like the bulk of the investor class, who have very little if any creative input into the companies they trade.  There is certainly good and bad investment advice.  For those who create 'the market'(investment banks), there is no loss, just fees collected from the transaction.      Add the insult of the 'pass through' rule which allows hedge fund managers to be compensated and taxed by capital gains rates. (not earned income, as the majority of us are compensated for our work).  

Note, I am a 40 year investor and that's how most of my wealth has been accumulated.  But my wealth came from conservative funds, based on my my personal earnings from a salaried job, and never feathered my bed beyond trying to save for a livable retirement.   

Those that claim that all capital gains benefit 'the public' are delusional.   Investor cash out, the money is theirs, not the publics.  There is clearly a critical mass to buy/sell cycles that requires no earned income to grow your wealth.

I'm not going to deny that there are some crazy-a**ed Mormons, but they're an insignificant minority.   There was a reason the US put some serious restrictions on Utah's admission to the Union and some Mormons haven't accepted that.   That said, they're a miniscule minority.   Oh, and I'm not a Mormon, I'm not even a Christian.

Too bad Jolly is getting so little support.   Even worse,  I would guess  a majority of the  voting public is unaware of the time their representatives  spend fund raising.   

Very few people would argue that large private institutions have influence on legislation.   At best, money donations provide very unequal access to those who guide legislation through congress.  At worst, it's a legal bribe.

We've put our legislators and  in a position of begging, not leading,    Sadly, it is the professional leadership of The Party that makes sure it's members play nice and cooperate - or they don't get their share of the booty.    

My hat is off for the brave few, like Jolly and Nolan, who are trying to shed the light on a corrupt process.

The last time we had a little violence in an election year it was Mayor Daley's thugs beating protester's during a Democratic Convention in Chicago.

  "Outside the official convention proceedings, anti-war demonstrators clashed with 11,900 Chicago police, 7500 Army troops, 7500 Illinois National Guardsmen and 1000 Secret Service agents over 5 days."  

These are just scuffles.  

You can't have a Real riot without Democrats.

You do mean how well the economy did after republicans took control of the house after 40 some odd years? I thought you were. Republican obstructionism under Obama? I absolutely am grateful, that is why the deficits have come down and the debt is not at 25 or more trillion. Thank you republicans.

Bernie's the least morally compromised candidate, and he's getting a blanket press shut-out, with a very few exceptions.  Trump, a supposed "outsider" is getting to use the media almost at will, with Cruz and Hillary close seconds:  Sanders coverage is generally at a negative selective slant when you hear about him at all.

It seems you're not allowed to get this far in the race for president without some significant handles and levers.  Trump might scare the establishment for the simple reason that his supporters don't seem to care about his flaws.  Hillary's got some major flaws that make her vulnerable to the vultures, which her supporters are blithely overlooking:  She's not going to be able to hack it in a split ticket situation, which seems increasingly to be what we're looking at.

If Bernie runs as an independent, he's got a real chance of winning at least the popular vote.
Output: Yes
Yes, Larry. You have complete contempt for actual facts. Reagan started supporting Republicans, not in "1962," a six year error, but in 1950, an 18-year actuality, when he supported the Trickster for Senate. Are you contending that all those school shooter lunatics who have been so helpfully aided by the NRA are "paragons of law abiding citizens?" The Panthers hadn't carried "fully loaded" (or partially loaded, I suppose) firearms often before their famous visit to the CA state capitol. Many were limited capacity shotguns, in fact. Most of the Blue Dogs were not gone by 2000. I gave you an actual list. There were EIGHT. Are you dense? One blue dog became a Republican after he left office and joined the Bush II administration. In fact, a member whom I had a major part in getting elected in 2006 was rejected for membership because they had reached their limit. 

Mark Twain was right when he said, "Faith is believing what you know ain't so," Larry.

Once again, the Mayor misses the boat. The now-doomed SW-SAZ plan was cooked up by outsiders (“anybody” was indeed leading the pack) and the residents of the zone were only informed later about what was  going to be good for them. 

Any plan to upzone (upscale) or change an established neighborhood requires a lot more than a meeting for all and then facilitation by Oregon Consensus. Mediation or facilitation implies that the slate already exists and we’re now going to tweak it. 

Residents of south Eugene have said no to that process repeatedly (see http://www.swneugene.org). What they have agreed on is plain and simple: a R - E - F - I - N - E - M - E - N - T  plan as the platform upon which any future changes can be made. And this plan must be community driven; no more top-down directives.

It is still a research university. The review is if it should still be one of the 62 AAU member universities. Oregon State is not AAU, but is a research university. If Oregon was booted out of the AAU it too would remain a research university. 

I don't think Oregon is excellent. There are pockets that are. It's an average state university. But like any school, it is mostly up to the student as to what they get out of it.

Rachael, you're the one who may actually be off a bit and appear to be confusing the PF  (Permanent Fund)  and the PFD (Permanent Fund Dividend. The difference is clear. The Fund itself was/is indeed truly meant to be a rainy-day fund to help support the State when the oil is inevitably gone. A moment of wondrous political clarity and foresight often not seen in our system.  The Dividend (PFD) was intended, at least in part, as a means to keep the pubic involved and monitoring the fund so that later politicians wouldn't figure out a way to get to the principle with no one to say otherwise. In retrospect it has worked just like that though maybe a little better than is healthy. With skin in the game Alaskans decry any attempt to raid the fund as it will have direct impact on them. This is the intended effect. On the downside it has created a bit of an unhealthy entitlement mentality but in general it's worked well. We still have an obligation to future generations.

"SWAG" stands for Scientific Wild-Assed Guess.  It's what passes for science when the science doesn't truly exist.   

I chose a random date because no one can give an answer to my question whether I suggest a date of tomorrow, 5 years from now, 10 years from now or any other date.  The science to answer that question does not exist!

Nor does the science to answer my second question.  Why should the society write a multi-billion dollar  blank check for something which not only doesn't currently exist but for which a theory hasn't even been developed? 

As an agnostic, I resent your attempt to knock my argument down by labeling my response as 'sinful religious conservatism'.

I am a conservative; I will not pay for a pig in a poke when you can't even tell me the size of the poke or the gender of the pig or anything else about this alleged pig which no one has ever seen.  Try selling me a unicorn; you will get the same response.

A courageous man, in and out of the ring. When few would speak out, he risked his life's work to correctly point out the misguidedness of the Vietnam War. Certainly, he joined a Muslim religion, but this must be looked at in context of the black struggle of its day. I'm amazed at the conservatives who hate him for his belonging to a group seeking rights for its minority members, and doing so in a forceful way, yet these same white folks have no problem in strongly supporting idiots like the Malheur vigilantes whose only goal is to personally profit from land that belongs to all of us.
