TKC EXCLUSIVE AND BREAKING NEWS!!! EXPLANATION: HERE'S WHY KANSAS CITY PUBLIC OFFICIALS EARN 'A PASS' ON DRAMATICALLY RISING HOMICIDE & CRIME!!!
The Kansas City homicide count is at a SEVEN YEAR HIGH for this time of year and our blog community confirms that crime in this cowtown is rising in nearly every single category yet there have been little if any consequences for our elected leaders.
Accordingly, in one of our most popular blog posts this month we asked where the public should place blame . . . Here's the answer . . .
THANKS TO TOP ECHELON KANSAS CITY DENIZENS WE LEARNED WHY NONE OF THESE PUBLIC OFFICIALS WILL BE TAKING ANY RESPONSIBILITY FOR MURDERS AND CRIME TRENDING UP TO HISTORIC LEVELS IN KANSAS CITY!!!
One by one let's take a look at the lack of accountability in this town . . .
3RD DISTRICT POLITICAL SUPPORT AND THE MSM PROTECT CHIEF FORTÉ FROM RESPONSIBILITY FOR RISING CRIME
The East side is standing up for the embattled KCPD Chief no matter how many children are killed on his watch. Ironically (or not), criticism from his (white) colleagues has inspired an outpouring of support from many denizens of crime-ridden neighborhoods. Better than that, MSM has propagated an unfortunate myth that only an African-American Chief can prevent rioting during this time of racial tension merely by the virtue of his demographic background . . . Sadly, so many tacitly liberal racists have bought into this flawed thinking.
Fact is, the KCPD Chief has earned a great deal of success through neighborhood outreach and by way of putting some of the police department's most strident critics on the payroll . . . Like it or not, these are smart moves. Yet other aspects of the Chief's tenure - Like his penchant for divisive quotations - Have created turmoil in his department. In the final analysis, it's fair to judge the Chief by the numbers but the culture war and petty racial politics prevent as much.
ANY CRITICISM OF COUNCIL LADY JOLIE JUSTUS AND HER INACTION ON CRIME MIGHT BE A HATE CRIME IN & OF ITSELF
She leads the Citizen's Anti-Violence Task Force which is one of the worst running jokes this town has to offer.
More than anything she has been a strong advocate for Hillary and otherwise completely ineffective in a discussion regarding Kansas City crime in Midtown - The heart of her district.
Let's make it plain . . .
MIDTOWN KANSAS CITY IS UNDER SIEGE AMID AN EPIC CRIME WAVE TARGETING NEIGHBORHOODS ALONG THE MAIN STREET CORRIDOR AND OUR 4TH DISTRICT COUNCIL LADY HAS SAID NOTHING ABOUT THIS FACT!!!
Still, the social set, local Democratic Party leaders and the LGBT community seem content to champion identity politics over neighborhood concerns.
Finally . . .
MAYOR SLY IS TOO BUSY MAKING MONEY FOR HIS DEVELOPER FRIENDS TO DO ANYTHING BUT LAMENT SO MANY DEAD KIDS IN KANSAS CITY AND THEN MOVE ON TO THE NEXT TIF DEAL
Mayor Sly is always great for a quote about how much seeing so many dead kids in this town hurts his feelings . . . However, his legislative agenda has been almost completely focused on providing taxpayer subsidy for a handful of developers who can also be found on his list of campaign donors.
Mayor Sly James talks a great game . . . About everything . . . But when it comes to the quotient of rising crime in this town, his actions reveal that he is powerless to curb the carnage. What's worse is that the people who support his regime are content with nothing but lip service on crime from this politico despite the fact that most biz is doomed to FAIL if it resides in a dangerous town plagued by crime.
Worst of all . . .
The answer to concerns about Kansas City crime for most of this year has been to DENY the trend THAT TKC NOTED FIRST but now in the midst of what has been a HISTORICALLY BLOODY AUGUST 2016 FOR KANSAS CITY . . . There is little more than silence and empty words about the ongoing slaughter as denizens of the local political scene would rather focus on ANYTHING but the reality of local streets.
A few good arguments here but look at the election rates and the voter turnout. KC doesn't really care about crime until it happens to them and the voters are thinking about who smiled the biggest, not any real issue.
ReplyDeleteDead kids and crime are a bummer. More babes, please.
ReplyDeleteKansas City is a corrupt freaking shit hole. BUT we do have lots of shiny new things to look at! And new bars to get drunk in!
ReplyDeleteYou wore me down... Now leave me the fuck alone you win asshole.
ReplyDeleteI just need a flight outta here for a month...
ReplyDeleteBlack people are emboldened by current events, especially in Jackson County where they know even a serious crime will likely only get you probation. They know all they have to do is whisper the word "racism" and white people will give them what they want. Look at the warrant that was served in KCK today. It was for a white guy wanted on child molestation charges. His black neighbors came out protesting in his favor and the cops eventually just left without arresting him. Yes, you read that right, black were protecting a white child molester from police.

Delete#62 Diebels on the Plaza. , #63 the Plaza !
ReplyDeleteYou can't just blame Jolie, not a single city council member is talking about the rise in crime. They have fails those who voted for them. Reed is a pussy who only thinks about himself. The city is dying at record paces and he wants to spend our money on a bullshit dead project. Lucas hasn't said a damn thing and we all know Loar, Hall and Taylor are bought and paid for. How in the fuck did we end up here? Fuck it. When is he Mayor going to call bullshit?
ReplyDelete#62 Diebels on the Plaza. , #63 the Plaza !
ReplyDeleteWhat about Quinton Lucas? He is a 3rd district Councilman. I thought he was so smart that he was going to fix all of this nonsense?
ReplyDeleteLucas is smart enough to be a pretty fast learner.
ReplyDeleteSo he listened really closely when the folks from the Chamber sat him down and told him how the city actually works.
And he listened really really closely when the usual suspects sat him down and told him how the east side really works.
Now he just carries water.
the local newspapers of cities used to exert some good government influence.
ReplyDeletenow, they're in the grip of the corrupt, incompetent local elites and a worldview of half-baked ideas.
It would like to know if it was worth any of the print version of this week and a drink in the lazy river in an inner tube and the food falls. I think I did not have to be to actually sit down and take a look at the end the same thing with you and your family are you doing here is a handful of people in my life is good and bad.
ReplyDeleteOne surely doesn't have high expectations from these Democrats who obviously run the city.
ReplyDeleteIf it resides in a dangerous town plagued by crime from this town plagued by crime from this town plagued by crime in this powerless to curb the fact that the people who can also be found on his legislative agenda has been almost comes to the quote about how much seeing so many dead kids in a dangerous town plagued by crime. Mayor Sly is always great for a quotient of campaign donors.
ReplyDeleteyeah great post Tony, but the next time you feel like penning one of these masterful opuses do us all a favor and ask yourself this question:
ReplyDelete"Should I write this, or would my time be better spent setting myself on fire?"
I'm sure you'll make the right choice one day. And you only need to do it once.
Hey 8:11, that's spelled with "2" G's dumbass. Get it right, YO!!!
ReplyDeleteNiger is a country.
ReplyDeleteYep, City hall elites are pretty much like Hillary, ya got pay to play. It's pathetic, they all angling for some meaningless higher paying job they'll sell their sole for. for example what ever happened to that development at Prospect and 63rd? Where did the millions go? They call the Plaza and Crown Center blighted so those with money can make more money while the rest of us pay for it. I've been here awhile and nothings changed.
ReplyDeleteHey poster at 9:46, they are probably using that money to pay for off duty cops to patrol the areas of the Plaza and Crown Center to keep all the young, disadvantaged African Americans in check. Remember Bannister Mall and the Hypermart area back in the day? Geeeeeez
ReplyDeleteWorld Class Shit Hole
ReplyDeleteAnd it's Frosty!
Turds with teeth.
ReplyDeletecoons and queers. What a town.
