Kansas City might soon respond to a reactionary radio talker who is nearly as bad as Hitler with an endorsement of cops denying medical care!!!



There's news that the fired police officers will appeal their termination in the Sofia Salva case. To date, the Police Board has upheld the action against the pair and people around the world reacted in disgust to the story of two rogue KCPD officers letting a woman bleed on the side of the road and later miscarry her child. Even better, a couple of KCPD sources revealed to TKC that in general the rank and file within the KCPD don't feel much sympathy for the cops involved and regard their actions as unprofessional.

Sadly, a local radio talker with poor ratings who is on the cusp of being replaced is using this case to bolster his stagnant career. Kansas City activists and community leaders have taken notice as an e-mail is now circulating which claims to have news of the talkers testimony in front of the Police Board on behalf of the officers involved in the Salva Case. Some of the most politically active people in Kansas City are rallying in order to create a response to this talker who is cynically taking a page from Michael Savage's book in order to draw attention to himself . . . Unfortunately, this isn't an attack on underrepresented immigrant groups but an affront to Kansas City's African-American Community which by and large viewed the issue as a clear cut case of racial disparity in treatment (or lack thereof) which was properly addressed by the Police Board and the KCPD Chief.

I tend not to get too upset when looking at any publicity stunt about to go horribly wrong. The radio d-bag is in question does nothing but run an infomercial for his old boss that has consistently pulled in mediocre numbers . . . Still a public smackdown is always a treat and it has been proven time and time again that obnoxious media personalities outside their comfort zone often seem small, petty and powerless . . . Which is why I seldom leave this basement.

In KC Proper there are very few people who feel that the cops who lost their jobs because of their refusal to provide medical treatment to a bleeding woman were treated unjustly (especially given their offense) . . . However, in the make believe world of talk radio there are always a few shut-ins who get riled up over obvious ploys to engage in identity politics. I can only hope that a gathering response to the talker will demonstrate which group holds the real political power in Kansas City and will be swift, loud and decisive . . . Still, like most things involving local media, I'm prepared to be disappointed.

  2. So when does Stigall take his mic and go home?

    Tony you don't understand that you're actually giving the guy publicity, it would be better just to let him fade out to whatever political job he can hack. And I do mean hack.

  4. I saw that guy on TeeVee. He came off as a complete and total asshole with racist undertones.

    The attention whoring was obvious and pathetic. I hope the guy promotes himself into an early grave.

  5. LMAO... talk about the pot calling the kettle black. (Racial overtones? hmmmm...) You can replace "Radio Talker" with "Tony" in this crap blog without missing a beat. Attention whoring... I like that one. That's Tony all the way. It's not surprising that Tony would make it a race issue again. On top of that his facts are twisted... as usual. Sofia Salva is a known criminal who lies. Of course she's going to say whatever she can to get out of going to jail. The officers did their job and took Sofia to jail. Here's the part that nobody wants to address. After the officers took Sofia to jail she was in the care of the officers at there. Is this not where an actual physical exam would have taken place to determine if she needed medical care. Could it be that the officers that checked Sofia into the jail and failed to get her medical treatment once there are black? My goodness... there would be no story if the public knew that the officers who failed to perform their job were black. So, instead of holding those black officers accountable for lack of actions once at the jail, the white officers are used as scapegoats to soothe the black ass-tivists in this community. If I was a white cop in KC, I would tell the black community to police themselves since they are so anti-white. You minorities bitch and complain about white people all the time, teach your own kind... protect your own kind... provide medical treatment to your own kind... employee your own kind. Quite using the white people for handouts and get a life.

  6. Plain and simple:

    Stigall lives in Kansas City, but not the urban core.

    Stigall supports the cops.

    Stigall spoke out in a public forum just as those that supported Salva did.

    Stigall is white.

    Those are all facts which Tony and the race baters of town hold against him. Pretty weak, folks.

  7. What do Stigall and Jeff Roe have in common?

    Both fat as a whale, both still gay virgins, both got their career being the dumb guy at NWMSU that will say anything and do anything for a buck. I'll put 5 says that a lot of crazy stuff will be leaking soon on Stigall. He reminds me of that fat guy on Pewee's Playhouse.
