Jordan Carver adorns this pool of links that we want to get out of the way before the start of the work week.
It was a rather INTENSE weekend that didn't offer much rest . . . On the bright side, I finished in the top ten in my HALO tournament. Still, these topics are worth checking out until we get started on Monday . . . Take a look:
Jackson County Exec and Missouri Democrat Party leader Mike Sanders claims that Missouri is still a bellwether and Claire is not only going to win but also keep the Senate with the donkeys.
The Royals have their own weekend of FAIL
Congratulations to Chris Hernandez & Crew: 41 Action News won TV station of the year in the large market television station category Saturday night at the 2012 Heart of America Awards.
If a Golden Ghetto Pizza Hut isn't safe than none of us are . . . And armed robber, his face covered with a bandana robbed a Pizza Hut restaurant late Saturday, according to Mission Police.
Kansas City's old and busted water infrastructure problems also impact our luxury shopping district: Plaza residents may experience water problems Sunday night, as crews replace and repair valves, according to Kansas City Water Services.
Doggie concerns never go out of style in Kansas City.
Contemplate all of this as we get ready to remain KICK-ASS for Monday.
Congratulations to Chris Hernadez and Crew? He was about the ONLY reporteer NOT mentioned in the story.
ReplyDeleteThe station does a good job and Hernandez does fine, but how about some accurate reporting instead of just slobbering all over your special buds?
And who are they looking for in the Pizza Hut robbery? That's right, a black male. Just think what could be accomplished if the commitment they have to crime was used in a beneficial way. But that will never happen. The regression the entire race is undertaking is astonishing. I don't think MLK would even bother wasting his time trying to advance this culture. We apparently are not going to live as well as our parents but they are regressing into self-imposed slavery. Just once I wish it would occur to all these thugs they don't know any old, retired drug-dealers. The thought of working towards some goal in the future, through education and/or employment (legal) is completely foreign to them. Unless by future you mean killing a cab driver and stealing his money because the new $250 Jordans come out tomorrow. Isn't it odd you don't see kids in Leawood walking around in $700 worth of clothes but you see it all the time at the bus stop on Troost? Yet they are on welfare. Something doesn't add up, wonder what it could be? I still remember the mayor of Cleveland ( he is black) on TV a few years back lamenting how all of his inner city schools were empty one day. All of his students were absent because the new Jordans came out that day. And he wondered out loud on TV how all these kids on welfare could buy $250 shoes. To say the cultures priorities are misguided is an insult to understatements. Their desire for materialistic possessions is so dangerous to us all because of willingness to go to prison over anything. I want to shit myself. As I type this I'm watching the news and a black kid (you can see his shins)who lives at the Travelers Inn on 40 HWY is being interviewed about last nights murder. He doesn't want his face shown so they show his shoes. Guess what he is wearing? JORDANS!!!! He lives in a $600 a month shit hole hotel and wears Jordans!!! They are so easy to stereotype it would be funny if they weren't so goddamn dangerous.
ReplyDeleteCarver really needs to get reduction surgery.
ReplyDeleteBlack people have always been about the clothes and the ride.
ReplyDeleteNew caddy in the front yard of a tarpaper shack says it all as well.
They ruin anything they touch because they don't give a fuck about anything.
Mike was sooo right about Hillary. Watch this loser be soooo right about Claire. Soon to be loser.
ReplyDelete9:08 & 10:16 Why do care so much about people that you carry so much disdain for? Why not forget about them and just concentrate on yourself and family?
ReplyDeleteWhat's that, oh right, then you'd have to take a look at your own life and the failure you've become!
Yes, indeed, it's SO much easier to slam other people as a way to make yourself feel superior.
As long as you're so occupied trashing others, you simply don't have the time to provide better for your family, get into physical shape, spend time with your kids, etc.
Can't wait for Chuck to tear into your post.

ReplyDelete"9:08 & 10:16 Why do care so much about people that you carry so much disdain for? Why not forget about them and just concentrate on yourself and family?"
Public safety issues in the community are a concern for rich, poor and all who work and live in the city.
"What's that, oh right, then you'd have to take a look at your own life and the failure you've become!

Glad we are that you are putting your high school education to work with this eviscerating commentary.
In addition, since you are so able to discern the exact nature of 9:08 and 10:16's accomplishments in life with just a few anonymous paragraphs, I think a your true calling might be working with Chief Forte in his latest endeavor to fight crime with his "Hot Spot" intitiative. Your clairvoyance in anticipation of criminal elements so ubiquitous in these areas, would be much appreciated.
Your efforts here, on this blog would be sorely missed, as levity is in short supply with all of Tony's "Fails".
12:11 I already do those things. It does not take me long to write a couple of paragraphs. And being 9:08 at in the evening I have already sent my kids to bed. Believe it or not one of them is 11 and NOT wondering around the Plaza right now without parental supervision. Now I'm up at this early hour getting ready for work. Something the majority of your race is not doing. As for worrying so much about the black race, you are damn right. The likelihood that my life is in danger when I am in the presence increases significantly. Your plague ruins entire cities. I would love to live where my parents grew up but that is simply impossible unless I want to die and have my kids go to the worst schools in the country. Your race has forced the mass exodus of white people to the hinterlands where we are forced to pay too much for our homes, live far from our jobs making us use more fuel, thus driving up prices. All in the name of safety for our families. Go ahead and use the tired, old "racist" term that doesn't get you anywhere. I'm just a realist. Your violent culture puts me on high alert so I watch you. And don't blame the media. The amount of damage such a small percentage of our population does is beyond astonishing. Also let's point out the irony here of you posting about another posting. How people like you cannot admit there is a serious problem in the black culture, entirely self-inflicted, is beyond me
ReplyDeleteBoth of 6:54's posts are very thoughtful, caring, and yet very sad. And they are representative of the feelings and attitudes of many residents throughout the metro as they watch KCMO south of the river keep doing the same old things, repeating the same old empty slogans, and working with the same old folks who are way more interested in their own financial gains than they are in the community. And the same old excuses and intimidation and extortion to try to justify any outrageous behavior, including even homicides.
ReplyDeleteThis just in: NO ONE IS COMING TO SAVE YOU. There are folks in the community working to involve residents in their own safety and success. Find out who they are and support them. And for the government and business folks who don't have the guts to stop appointing, celebratin, and funding the very self-appointed extortionists who prevent so much progress in the city, look up the word "courage" in the dictionary and give it a try. You might find that the anticipation of what might happen actually turns out to be much worse than the actual event.
Any time the truth is spoken about negative behavior in the black community it is immediately dismissed by the apologists and the speaker is denounced as a racist.
ReplyDeleteEven a clock that's broken is right twice a day. If some of the rhetoric is distasteful, maybe it's time for the black community to look for and face the truth in these posts.
And the truth is this: blacks commit a disproportionate share of crime in our community. And especially violent crime.
The "leadership" of the black community has led their people down the path of moral poverty and bankruptcy, all the while financially enriching themselves.
Time for the people in the black community to get over themselves and get out of the Racism Industry and into the truth industry.
And the truth is life is hard and nobody owes you anything. Your blackness is neither a cause of nor an excuse for your failings. Pull up your pants, get an education, learn to speak properly, stop making babies unless you're married, get a job, give respect, and don't get bogged down in the stupidity, ignorance, or bad behavior of others. Just keep going.
That or spend your life in the system and being beaten down by your own community until you eat lead or find yourself living in a steel and concrete cage.
6:54 No one forced white people to flee Kansas City! PLEASE!!! DON'T PLAY THE VICTIM!
ReplyDeleteIf you fled to "the hinterlands" (mostly referred to as suburbs) it was YOUR choice.
WHITE people waved the white flag and abandoned the city because they refused to stand their ground. They were prejudiced and fearful of someone who looked a little different. By the way, did you see the SUN KCStar front page article on Noel, Missouri? Sound familiar?
You chose to flee to the suburbs, pay more for housing, pay more for commuting, waste time with more driving, etc.
You sure are a poor victim!! ....cry me a river....
Come on Jordan, show us the nips.
ReplyDelete12:32 You are so right. People should stay where their lives would be constantly threatened and their children would "graduate" from a shitty school reading at a 4th grade level. All the while keeping up a nice house while everything around you turns to shit. You are absolutely right. People should spend into the six-figures maintaining a home while the black tide transforms every other house around you into a 20,000 crack house with weeds 10 feet high. Makes perfect sense. And yes I did see the article about Noel. I have no problem with anybody coming here legally looking for a better life. Nobody accommodates immigrants like America. Despite the tax burden their children still receive an education. No other country on Earth would make such accommodations for an American relocating to their country. Last there is a big difference between the Somalis and most urban black youth. THEY CAME HERE TO WORK!!!
