JUXTAPOSITION: KANSAS CITY HOMICIDES SPIKE WHILE POLICE ON STREET PLUMMET!!!



Here's a not so fun fact put on blast amid today's police board meeting . . .

KSHB: "New numbers released at the Kansas City Police Board meeting show the number of homicides is increasing while the number of officers on the street has dipped below last year's ten year low."

However . . .

Civic activists constantly complain that Kansas City "public safety" eats up more than half of City Hall's budget as they constantly advocate for more cuts to police money.

And so, natch, we put it to you:

SHOULD KANSAS CITY FOCUS ON PUTTING MORE POLICE ON LOCAL STREETS TO CURB THE RISING MURDER COUNT?!?!?

The answer seems obvious but it's not one of the many laughable suggestions from the Citizens Task Force on Violence which advocates more funding for anti-violence groups, community based programs that focus on prevention and more healthcare options.

You decide . . .

  1. More funding for the hotel, the new airport and the streetcar will solve KC's murder problem.

    That's the only real solution!

  2. Rape taxpayers, and make KCMO un-affordable that will help.

  3. The sad fact is that there is so much financial chicanery in KCMO government that city hall is borrowing money just to pay operating expenses and the incompetence and irresponsibility continues day after day.
    PIAC money transferred to accounts for streetcar consultants.
    Endless "emergency" ordinances accelerating expenditures without adequate thought, planning, or public input.
    Funds transferred from a a designated account to pay for some BIG NEW THING that just appeared.
    TIFs that never expire and continue to steal money from school districts and libraries.
    And not enough police to even begin to address the rising crime, violence, and homicides.
    Governing is about making choices.
    And the priorities at 12th and Oak are poison for residents and businesses in KCMO.
    How many more years of Sly, again?

  4. I thought that voting for 1% E tax was going to help pay for more police. Was that a lie???

  5. More residents, more crime, but less officers on the streets. Any brain dead idiot could see what a failure that would breed.

  6. Redundant question, or sarcasm; right 8:05?

    Either way, agree.

  7. Police are heading for a 10-15 year low in staffing. Coupled with attacks on police, Ferguson Effect and a leadership void on the department how can anyone be shocked? Forte' called his officers poorly trained, scared racists last year. The crime problem rests directly on the shoulders of the Commissioners and Forte'.

  8. It's not the lack of police. It is the lack of competence by the police and prosecutors

  10. It's neither lack of police or incompetent police. They simply don't care how many negro thugs kill other negro thugs. The negro mayor doesn't care either.

  12. KCPD has at least 1400 police officers, they choose to only use 180 of those officers per day. There are 6 districts and each district only uses 10 officers per district per 8hr shift for a total of 180. This is also misleading for the fact that they don't always get 10 officers per district per shift because they take off work for any number of reasons usually only averaging 7or 8 officers in each district. It's not that we don't have enough they choose to not use them. This is the real reason there's no cops around when you need them or it takes four hours to respond. It's just piss poor management.

  16. FACT

    Turn over rate in KCMO Police Dept is about 95% , for those who join the force and are under 35 yrs.old.

    They can't do their jobs, because of the Degenerate Libtard idiots, the criminals always complaining of harrasement.

    So the Degenerate Commie Dumb Ass Libtards at KCMO City Hall continue to pay out MILLIONS of TAX Dollars to Criminals & Terrorists .

    KCMO is almost as badd as IRAQ, and its corrupt lying pathetic City Leadership too !!!

    1. You're absolutely right. The root cause of this is the sympathy and indulgence of liberals who do not suffer the consequences of their virtue signalling. Only when it directly affects them will there be the will to change anything. And by then, it will be far too late. The reset button won't be pretty.

  17. Where are all the officers you ask??? NOVA

    ReplyDelete
  18. Yes, NOVA took a bunch off the street but we now have more commanders than officers working. Crazy. Dozens of Commanders with no one to command. Even Crazier !!!! Been going on for years but no one seems to care.
