SHAME: MAYOR SLY 'STATE OF THE CITY' CLOSED TO PUBLIC!!! INSIDERS: CITY HALL TALKING POINTS DOWNPLAY ONGOING KANSAS CITY MURDER SPIKE!!!
As usual, Mayor Sly James is only speaking to a very closed group of consultants, supporters and acolytes in his annual State Of The City speech.
Here's the latest social media "news" blast to maintain the illusion of local Democracy . . .
Join Mayor James for the 2018 State of the City Address. This event is an opportunity to hear about the progress we are making as a city and explore what is on the horizon. This event is open to the public and we encourage you to attend! If you are unable to attend, the event will be livestreamed on Channel 2 and at kcmo.gov.
PLEASE NOTE: Bags will be subject to search. No weapons will be allowed in the venue. Thank you for your cooperation.
Mayor Sly's blog has more info on the event.
City Hall already advises . . .
"This event is full, however, we do have a waitlist option and may be releasing more tickets in the coming week."
Trust the Mayor's communication team or realize that they've tried to keep voters away from this event ever since an East side activist jumped on stage and terrified the City Hall honcho.
More importantly, the redeveloped Midtown KC office space location of the stump speech and a few notes sent back to City Hall staffers reveal:
MAYOR SLY STILL DOESN'T HAVE ANY COMPREHENSIVE PLAN TO CONFRONT RECORD HIGH AND RISING KANSAS CITY HOMICIDE NUMBERS!!!
Development talking points will once again dominate the Mayor's address to his closest friends and allies.
You decide . . .
It's near Hyde Park.
ReplyDeleteHe needs to keep neighbors out because they have some very legitimate reasons to ask the Mayor tough questions about his policies.
The weather is getting warmer, there could be at least another 6 homicides by this time next week.
DeleteSomebody said it best a few weeks ago when it became obvious that the homicide count was only going to get worse, Sly James is Kansas City's murder mayor. Crime has never been one of his priorities and it has become worse under his administration.
DeleteBetter title: the hyde park speech won't hit crime.
ReplyDeleteThe mayor, "Corrupt Sylvester" will spin the $35 million give away of tax payer money on "the much needed convention hotel" as a positive achievement" of his tenure. He will tell you he "worked 7-years" on this bassackward deal. His tone will be one of Pride.
ReplyDelete-I will be embarrassed for my city.
He will spin the crammed down your throat single terminal airport, the non-compete contract with Burns and Mac and the city managers "swiss cheese" free response for Burns and Mac as "clumsy but necessary business of government."
-I will be embarrassed for my city.
He will not mentioned that KC lost being short listed for the Amazon HQ2 to its peer cities - Nashville, Columbus and Indianapolis.
-And I will say I am embarrassed for my city.
Three generational once in a lifetime tremendous opportunities for our city and all three are corrupt negligent failures.
He will get to that part of his speech... "And The State Of Our City is - Our values and way of life still hold true; We are still absolutely considered a Cow Town."
7:41 So well said, but please let me offer an edit, in your last sentence, scratch “considered”
DeleteYou have to be a streetcar groupie, consultant or single terminal airport cheerleader to be invited.
ReplyDeleteThe black minority owned businesses will certainly be invited and mentioned - the Jason Parson mafia will be sitting front and center.
DeleteSeal off violence prone areas and do house to house searches with gun/drug detecting dogs. Only way any progress stopping crime and murders will happen. The constitution is for mature citizens, rule these areas wilderness and attack the problem.
ReplyDeleteRemember... Vote NO on KC Question 1, April 3, and save 1% on sales tax for 20 years! Where did all that GO bond money go??
ReplyDeleteSales tax? GO bond money? Why is my water bill so high? Why is the city’s credit rating so poor? And god point above, why did we lose Amazon to Columbus, Nashville and Indianapolis? WTF?!
DeleteOnly gay sLIE’s ass kissing friends get invited so they can bow before him and praise him for his masterful screwing of the taxpayers. You can’t have the angry masses show up and diss him because it will damage his ginormous ego. This was never meant for any one other than his followers, wonder how much money this will cost the taxpayers?
ReplyDeleteThe go bond money is going to toy train and a new hotel, where did you think it was going? You didn’t actually think he would spend it outside the downtown loop did you?
ReplyDeleteDidn’t even know this was coming up, how was a person supposed to get a ticket if they didn’t know about it? That’s right folks, he doesn’t want you there. Odd that no tickets are available before it was even advertised doncha think
ReplyDeleteMayor Sly, have you always been a jackass or is that something you’ve just recently acquired at the I Want to be a Junior Jackass store?
ReplyDeleteTHEY LAUGH AT US. ONLY ONE THING THEY FEAR; THAT VOTERS WISE UP AND CUT OFF THEIR SUPPLY OF GREENBACKS. WHERE DO WE GET "VOTE NO" SIGNS?
ReplyDeletemake 1,only takes a sharpie and piece of cardboard
Delete^^^ Excellent point!
ReplyDeleteNow on the wait list, had not heard of this speech until now. Agree with a lot of what the mayor has to say but wish that he would talk more about crime.
ReplyDelete^^^ Good point. Making mine now!
ReplyDeleteAs long as niggers & faggots or nigger faggots are being killed, there’s no homicide problem. It’s called natural selection.
ReplyDeleteWhat a worthless coward. He could have had the credibility to speak out against the real causes of ghetto violence and refuses to do so. He has abandoned The Plaza to the thugs and rendered the PD impotent. He's a whore for the developers who will trash anything for a buck and just an all-around useless cunt.
