ReplyDeleteSly still wants a bronze plaque with his name on it at a new airport. He needs a legacy.
ReplyDeleteNo! Tell me it isn't so!
ReplyDeleteSpeaking of Sly's "frosty" agenda did they find that tourist visiting wonderful downtown trolley land that was last seen about 1 a.m. walking alone near 12th Street and Wyandotte Avenue in downtown Kansas City the other night and is missing?
ReplyDeleteLmao
DeleteSly didn't raise all that campaign cash with promises for just a couple projects like the hotel, streetcar, endless TIFs, and countless "planning" contracts.
ReplyDeleteThere's lots more owed the contributors and they have just four years left.
Ladies and gentlemen: Open you taxpayers' wallets!

ReplyDeleteKCKS MAYOR HOLLAND WHORES FOR LA RAZA and DEMOCRATS!!!!!!
ReplyDeleteMayor brags: Our white population plummets
Credits La Raza, U.N. refugee program for growing 'diversity'
Published: 15 hours ago
The mayor of Kansas City, Kansas, in an address to the radical socialist organization National Council of La Raza, bragged that his city is no longer majority white and the city’s schools now have students who speak 62 different languages.
According to the 2010 U.S. Census, Kansas City, Kansas, was 52 percent white.
But in a speech before the La Raza National Affiliates Luncheon earlier this week in Kansas City, Mayor Mark Holland boasted that only five years later his city’s white population has been reduced to 40 percent.
He seemed to suggest that La Raza was at least partly responsible for the progress. But he also cited the refugee resettlement work of the United Nations and U.S. State Department for the city’s transformation into a gleaming example of multicultural diversity.
Kansas City, he said, “is very proud of the work of National Council of La Raza.”
“Kansas City, Kansas, is a city with no ethnic majority. Kansas City, Kansas, is 40 percent white, 28 percent Latino, and 26 percent African-American,” Holland said. “Our school district speaks 62 different languages by the children every single day. And Kansas City, Kansas, has a proud heritage of welcoming all people into the community, people who are not welcome in other places.”
Latinos started coming with the Santa Fe railroad more than 100 years ago, to build the railroad, he said. Another railroad, the Underground Railroad, brought African-Americans to Kansas. “If they could get across the river they were free and settled in a township of Quindero.”
“We continue to have a number of groups of refugees from around the world,” he added, mentioning the large Hmong community that came in the 1970s and 80s following the Vietnam War.
In recent years, the city has welcomed more refugees from other parts of the world, including Muslim Somalia, Afghanistan and Iraq, Hindus from Bhutan and Buddhists and Muslims from Burma.
LGBTs welcome in KC
Kansas City has also thrown open its arms to the LGBT community, Holland said, even though most of the state of Kansas leans Republican.
HOLLAND WHORES PART 2
ReplyDeleteHe said the city is the home of another “persecuted group – the Democrats.”
“The Democrats still have a foothold in Kansas City and we’re very proud of that,” said the Democrat mayor. “And because Democrats are in Wyandotte County, we welcome our gay and lesbian brothers and sisters and celebrate their life and their love, and always will.”
Holland, an ordained Methodist minister, then went on the attack against any Christians who don’t share his liberal theological views on same-sex marriage.
He applauded the recent 5-4 Supreme Court decision that redefined marriage for all 50 states.
“But we cannot let our guard down. This religious freedom component, I believe is the Confederate Flag of religious bigotry, being flown long after the fact,” Holland said. “As an ordained United Methodist pastor myself, I’m offended to note, when they say Christians are offended by the ruling. In fact, many of us Christians celebrate the ruling and the continued welcome and recognition of all people. But I want to close by saying we just couldn’t be more proud that La Raza is here in Kansas City and it’s an honor to be able to greet you.”
Police, fire departments lagging in diversity
In August 2014 Holland told city commissioners that the Kansas City police and fire departments were too white, reported KMBC-TV 9.
Holland said he was working with the U.S. Department of Justice to fix that problem and bring more diversity to the fire and police forces. He said he did not like the fact that only 40 percent of the city’s population was white yet whites made up 72 percent of the police department and 82 percent of the fire department.
The theme of the recent La Raza conference in Kansas City was “Empower, Lead, Connect.”
The U.S. State Department, working with the United Nations, has sent 2,371 international refugees to Kansas City, Kansas, since 2002. The State Department’s database does not include U.N. refugees dispersed throughout the U.S. before 2002 but the program has been ongoing in its current form since 1980. The U.N. picks about 95 percent of the refugees sent to the U.S. The State Department, working with nine major contractors such as the U.S. Conference of Catholic Bishops, Hebrew Immigrant Aid Society and Lutheran Immigration and Refugee Service, distributes about 70,000 refugees annually from mostly Third World nations into 190 U.S. cities and towns.

U.N. sends KC 2,371 refugees since 2002
The refugees, unlike most other classifications of immigrants, immediately qualify for a smorgasbord of state and federal welfare benefits and are placed on a fast-track toward full citizenship, which is obtainable within five years.
Since 2002 Kansas City has received 1,090 refugees from Burma, 577 from Bhutan, 190 from Somalia, 126 from Iraq, 47 from Liberia, 37 from Eritrea, 36 from Russia, 34 from Burundi, 33 from Afghanistan, 26 from Vietnam, 24 from Sudan, 18 from Uzbekistan, and 11 from Iran, according to State Department data.
The city’s overall population has been in decline for four straight decades since reaching its peak of 168,000 in 1970, Census records show. By 2010 that population had fallen to 145,786. But, by using the refugee program and a general “welcoming” approach to all immigrants, the city has been able to recharge its population somewhat, with an estimated 149,636 residents as of 2014.

What in the heck is a tourist doing at 1:11 a.m. wandering around 12th and Wyandotte Downtown?
ReplyDeleteI guess a lot of people from out of town don't realize this is a crime ridden dangerous city after dark.
Regardless of what bullshit Sly and his twitter brigade of minions pump out day after day.
Thanks 8:12 for the dumbass racist view point, however fucking worthless it is. You need to keep views like that to yourself.
ReplyDeleteYou should do the same. As long as we have free speech in this country 8:12 can say what ever they want. You need to go back to reading kc star.
Delete11:07-11:08 you need to back off the caffeine.
ReplyDeleteAbout 12 minutes and The Sylster City Star should be getting it's taxpayer bailout rubber stamped.

There were choices, but I guess folks decided to nap through the primaries too.
ReplyDeleteThe choices for Mayor were Dumb & Dumber.
DeleteOther cities are bringing urban farms to major league ballparks.

We're still struggling to get the roaches and mold off of our hot dog buns.
KCMO. Always just a few decades behind the curve (TM)
Basically what it all comes down to is we have a lot of construction jobs.

Anyone else getting tired of Sly James and crew jacking us around constantly with spin and bullshit?
ReplyDeleteI thought Sly James was a horrible mayor but the mayor of Kansas City, Kansas, Mark Holland, makes Sly James look like Fiorello LaGuardia (for those of you educated in the KCMOPS, KCKPS, HMPS, UMKC or that third rate teacher’s college in Maryville, LaGuardia was the legendary mayor of New York City for whom the airport is named. If Mark Holland was any more of a douche bag, he would reek of vinegar. As bad as James and Holland are, both Kansas Cities should be glad they don’t have a socialist psycho like Bill de Blasio for their mayor. De Blasio is in the process of taking a great city and ruining it. De Blasio’s election as mayor was the worst thing to happen to New York since 9/11. Hey Mark Holland, just think of all the publicity Kansas City, Kansas will get when one of your new and welcome immigrants does a terror attack like that throw back in Tennessee. The barbarians did not storm the gates of Rome but were let in by the decadent and corrupt leaders of Rome. Like the Romans, the barbarians did not storm America’s gates, they were let in by stupid politicians. America in a few generations has gone from the breadbasket of the world to bread and circuses. Let the games begin.
ReplyDeleteI know what I am talking about, I have a Ph.D. in epidemiology and a radio show with more internet listeners than Rush Limbaugh.
You people suck.
