Kansas home to 3 hate groups including Westboro Church
A SPLC Year in Hate and Extremism report shows Kansas hosts three hate groups in 2014, one in Topeka. The state ranks among those with the fewest groups, with two Kansas groups linked to the Midland Hammerskins and Crew 38. Westboro Baptist Church in Topeka is cited for anti LGBT activity, while extremists describe themselves as nonviolent. The report notes national declines in active hate groups and a drop in Klavern numbers.

Group urges repeal of Kansas death penalty at Capitol
GOP activists and a Benedictine College pro life group leader urged repeal of capital punishment in Kansas at a Capitol rally. Speakers argued death sentences cost more than noncapital cases, no deterrent effect, and that life begins at conception, with Gov Brownback noting growing ties between abortion and executions.
