NEW DEFINITIONS WILL INCREASE THE NUMBER OF KANSAS CITY RAPE REPORTS!!!



A wise man once said: The words we use define the world in which we live. In Kansas City there will be a consequence to a recent update in term concerning sexual assault.

From The KCPD Chief Forté's Blog:

Change of rape definition will increase reports, encompass more victims

An example of the impact . . .

"Consider what it would look like if we had used the new rape definition in 2012. Through mid-November 2012 (we’re still finalizing more recent stats), Kansas City had 243 rapes according to the old rape definition. But under the new definition, the city had 558. The new definition simply includes all victims of sexual assault, as it should, and gives us a more accurate view of the extent of the crime in Kansas City. This will not change the the thorough manner in which we investigate any of these cases, just the way we report them."

Shouldn't they bring Taliban Todd in as a consultant on this one? Make sure these are all legitimate?

Crime prevention is not Kansas City's Forte.

If the definition were to include raping taxpayers, KC would shoot to the top in that statistic.

Thet would require reporting the pillage as well.

Uncle Sam: 911!
911: What is the nature of your emergency?
Uncle Sam: I'd like to report an attempted rape.
911: Are you the victim?
Uncle Sam: Yes!
911: Can you identify your attacker?
Uncle Sam: Yes, the Obama Administration has been trying to repeatedly rape me.
911: Please hold for the next 4 years.
Uncle Sam: Hello? Is anybody there?

Word is they are lobbying to get the tax appraisers reclassified as rapists too.

That is the uniform military code definition of rape.

The police in Kansas City need to get on the KC crime issues. This has been going on for years.

There is a lot of federal money out there for local law enforcement for jaming up scmucks who get to frisky. The more scmucks in jail, the more money for local LE.
