They don't call it Killa City for nothing.
ReplyDeleteThe magnitude of the numbers of illegal aliens in the United States represents a serious crisis and urgent need for a return to the rule of law and secured borders that the United States Constitution demands.
ReplyDeleteSo, I guess our crime if KC is diverse? That makes sense. We're an international city after all. Too bad our Mayor and Council are only concerned about the damn toy train.
ReplyDeleteWhy don't you report on your own ilk?
ReplyDeleteWe're one KC! This is all our crime in one, baby!
ReplyDeleteI guess this isn't quite as good as the World Series.
In defense of TKC, did you know the largest growing minority group in the 3rd district is Mexicans. I guess that explains why the place is such a dump but now smells spicy too.
Viva KC. America's new trash heap.
There is nothing international or cosmopolitan about this city! NOTHING!
ReplyDeleteYou have never had fried rice until you have had Chino-Latino fried rice.
ReplyDeleteJust saying.
Mexicans are not even in Double A.
ReplyDeleteThe fuckin Bruthas, kill, maim and rape at ever more increasing rates nation wide, while the media is focused on a dead thug who was trying to steal a cop's gun.
Gov Jay Nixon is all over the boards this week. When is the last time we've had an asshole like this running things?
ReplyDeleteIt's really only a dangerous city if you live south of the river.
ReplyDeleteGlad I dont live in big city, country folks have morals, values and work harder than most....Tony you seem to instigate drama, been on here for years watching the drunks post on your blog, you are no different that the main tree media that you call (dead tree) they and you dont care about core values! they and you are after ratings,( aka Attention) and your world spins shit to get people to buy in to the bullshit!!!
ReplyDeleteTony- how about teach young people how to manage money, oh wait you wouldnt be a good example since as a middle aged man you still live in your moms basement, I bet she cant wait to die!
Way to go black people! See, you really do bring death and destruction everywhere you go. If you could aim, it would be even higher.
ReplyDeleteFucking shame, this used to be such a nice city.
ReplyDeleteAnd all the new logos and Sly's endless rah rah don't do a thing to change the impression of KCMO around the country.
ReplyDeleteSuperficial crap, grandiose projects like the streetcar, no end to TIFs and other subsidized eco devo, self-important Chamber swells, pandering amateurish political "leaders", grifters and shakedown artists running make-believe nonprofits, murders right on city hall's doorstep, and debt as far as the eye can see.
Arithmetic just can't be beaten with PR.
Maybe KCMO can still come in under 100 murders for the year.
Big deal.
Everything's up to date in Kansas City. Just get out of town before dark if you value your life.
ReplyDeleteA dude just got murdered at 730 this morning. Daylight doesn't help
Delete"been on here for years"
ReplyDeleteTKC readers are well informed gluttons for punishment
why don't we fix this problem before working on a street car line.
ReplyDeleteAm I wrong to think KC murders won't be prevented by a choo choo?
blah, blah, blah. They always talk about fixing KC but they never do.
ReplyDeleteI guess the chief didn't read the FBI stats before he went on 41 this morning bragging about how the community is doing such a great job reducing crime.
ReplyDeleteDoes a large locally elected male that allegedly choked a woman on city property till she screams count as crime?
ReplyDeleteNot any more than stealing $15k.
ReplyDeleteWe discovered during the World Series that America doesn't care about black females.
ReplyDelete@3:13, or males or niglets. America, as a society, is fed up with the Black Plague and the way they're such a drain on the taxpayers. Time for them to go back to the muddahland.
DeleteWhat an ignorant thing to say... The black community only takes up a very small percentage of the American population. Also did you forget it was the crime committed by you wholesome white folk that brought us into this country that by the way you stole to gain possession of in the first place???? How about the fact that every crime we commit you committed against us for years. So I ask the question, who plagued who??? If you pure white folks hadn't stolen our resources we may have had a motherland to stay in let along go back to... You are an idiot!!!
DeleteWhen people think that folks such as Craig Glazer have the right to glamorize their wrong doings hell yes it's easy to see why this town has this rating which is nothing to be proud about.

Peru has license to kill environmental protestors? Ok, Hunt Oil! We really are the Chiefs. J. Nixon is going to need some pointers this week in Ferguson. How can Hunt Oil get by with killing protesters but J. Nixon cannot? The world is just not fair for J. J. Nixon anymore?

ReplyDelete. . . members of the armed forces and the national police (Peru) exemption from criminal responsibility if they cause injury or death, including through the use of guns or other weapons, while on duty. Human rights groups, both nationally and internationally, the Human Rights Ombudsman (Defensoria del Pueblo) as well as the UN High Commissioner for Human Rights all expressed deep concern about the law. In the words of the [Lima-based] Instituto Libertad y Democracia [IDL], the law equates, in practice, to a “licence to kill.”
Killa City negros taking the city to new heights........
ReplyDeleteNow that just sounds racist and stupid. That's the problem here
DeleteWould like to see metropolitan areas compared. In Wyandotte we try very hard!
