    Drug Connected Felons Employed By TKC - TKC's move to create social niceness has inadvertently led to putting a dangerous ex-felon in the Kansas City limelight. Scientific polling has proven TKC's readers hate it and want a change.

  3. "Continued Kansas City Killing - Despite heroic efforts, the carnage hasn't stopped." You have yet to list ANY heroic efforts . That joke of a friend of yours Alonzo doesn't count. He's just trying to get his hand in the cookie jar like all the others.

  12. When will that corrupt fucking cunt Dutch really take it to the next level?

  13. Celebrate Dutch Newman's 21st Century honesty about Gay Folk, because politically correct is not necessarliy correct, but always political - and usually BULLSHIT.

  14. Tony, you are completely excused from having to change anything about yourself or your life. Stay exactly the same! Be frozen in time. Resist the urge to tinker. Take a vacation from life's relentless command to evolve.

  15. NORTHEAST, YOU GET WHAT YOU DESERVE2/9/13, 11:02 AM

    Remember when, during the Royster/Moreno election and subsequent Rizzo election fraud, Moreno was telling everyone what a nonparticipant Rizzo is?

    Well, it turns out that they were telling the truth.

    Rizzo also is the guy who, with his dad's help, shut down all the Jackson County participation in anti-prostitution legislation in Northeast.

  16. John Rizzo the power player? Those of us living here see Santa in our community more than Rizzo each year.
