Concealed guns on campus: a problem ND does not need
Allowing concealed weapons on North Dakota college campuses: now, there’s the answer to a problem that doesn’t exist. Oh wait, in the spirit of the legislative session, let me amend that: You see, the way the bill is written, concealed weapons would be allowed many other places, too, including athletic events, political rallies, concerts, and – my personal favorite – churches.

Republican voter bills are political
At first glance, it is difficult to disagree with The Forum’s editorial judgment of Jan. 27 that two voting “reform” measures introduced in the North Dakota Legislature by Fargo Republican Rep. Al Carlson and three of his local colleagues are solutions in search of a problem.
