KANSAS CITY WILL HIT 100 HOMICIDES THIS WEEKEND!!! ARE WE DOOMED TO CONTINUE DEADLY 2017 HIGH CRIME TREND???
2017 has been one of the most violent years in recent Kansas City history so far.
The rate of killing has seen a historic uptick and hit a nearly 50% increase over last year at one point. Now the spike stands at around a 34% increase this year over last . . . Moreover, increased robbery, assaults and shootings have also marked this bloody year in local killing fields.
The carnage is getting so horrific that local news agencies are struggling to report the trend so that their watchers won't just tune out the bad news.
For instance, here's an important look at people on the other side of local murders and death . . .
The story of violence in Kansas City through the eyes of those who see its aftermath
Over the past few years we've seen what DOES NOT WORK . . . Anti-crime groups, hot spot policing and community outreach have FAILED to curb the tragic murder count.
Now, in a back to basics approach . . . The new Chief wants to simply put more police on the street.
Our blog community question that everyone else is afraid to ask . . .
ARE HIGHER MURDER COUNTS AND MORE VIOLENT CRIME THE NEW NORMAL IN KANSAS CITY???
While Kansas City aspires to emulate towns like Austin, Portland and Denver . . . Our crime rate trends suggest we have more in common with metros like Chicago, Baltimore and Detroit.
As always, we're interested in suggestions that might help the community fight against crime . . . Despite the fact that local political leadership is far more interested in a development agenda.
You decide . . .
High crime is the legacy of Mayor Sly James.
ReplyDeleteNot the streetcar.
Not Mike Burke's hotel
And not a new airport.
Sly James should be held responsible for letting this situation get our of control.
I really feel sorry for the families that have lost someone to all the killings, no matter if their family member was just an innocent bystander or one that was also shooting back.
ReplyDeletePopulation control,
These folks have guns illegally, shoot just to prove they are "men" or to get scars from battles. What they really are is losers.
Kansas City is just a few years behind Detroit, Chicago and Baltimore.
I hope we get to 155 this year. Baltimore is already over 200. We should be able to get there next year.
ReplyDeleteThere is more drug violence on B more than KC
DeleteNot a fair comparison at all. Baltimore has 395000 black people. Kansas City has less than 150000 black people. Of course Baltimore has more misers, they have a quarter of a million more negroes.
DeleteUh oh! Danged ol' statues and monuments are getting violent again. Quick! Get 'em all crated up and moved outta public view.
ReplyDeleteMetflix,new MOVIE.ESCAPE FROM KANSAS,CITY THE kin,folks said move away from there They said Lee's Summit is the place you want to be so they loaded up the truck and then he had to take a pee.
ReplyDeleteDEM CONTROLED CITIES =CRIME AND CORRUPTION
ReplyDeleteMove out if you don't like it!
ReplyDeleteThe impetus for all KC's violence, the Confederate Memorial, is now gone. Kansas City has begun immediate transformation into a violence-free utopia.
ReplyDeleteIt's not Sly's fault. Blame the people who did it or the people who won't help turn in killers. Like 200 people who watched a police officer get shot in Westport this weekend but still haven't said ANYTHING.
ReplyDelete@6:37 - I see what you did there and it's brilliant.
ReplyDeleteWell played.
Yes!
ReplyDeleteYes, the murder rate is off the charts, but think of the ripple effects like the Plaza just bring a shell of its former self, Westport out of control and the crumbling infrastructure on top of all that. KCMO will be the next Detroit in a matter of a year or two. It's too far gone to turn things around at this point.
ReplyDeleteOne difference between Kc and Detroit. There mayor has already been convicted and is in prison. We are a little behind in that way. Our maybe hasn't been convicted yet, but he will be.
DeleteKansas City is not only doomed but it is inevitable it's going to happen.
ReplyDeleteremember the old days when a town was out of control with killings and so forth? Remember how the town always brought in a new sheriff who put an end to it all?
ReplyDeleteThat's what Kansas City needs to do and to hell with the Byron type snowflakes.
ReplyDeletemost of the 100 were Democrat moochers -- so its an improvement for KC
Trump pardons former Sheriff Joe Arpaio
ReplyDeleteThe right move!
ReplyDeletehopefully , the urban scholars will now move to Mizzou,with their new "free everything" scam.
I feel manly, and in control, when I say kc will be the next detroit. And blaming everything on lib's makes me feel better. And Tony take's away my 1st ammendment rights when he delete's my comments.
ReplyDeleteDon't use the n word and Tony's robot army won't kill your comment.
Delete6:31, Baltimore has an advantage. It's under a Justice Department consent decree, so of course its murder count will go through the roof. If you want KC to top 200 this year, you will have to get help from [in]Justice.
ReplyDelete105 BEFORE MONDAY JOE THE SHERIFF PARDON
ReplyDelete^^^I bet your right!
ReplyDeleteThose monuments are killing so many innocent blacks.
ReplyDeleteSlying James and the Shitty Council are the architects of this slaughter. KCPD has lost 150 officers over the last 8-10 years and Sly has intentionally led a blind council. Kansas City must wake up and hold them accountable for this crime wave.
ReplyDeleteHow many victims are black and how many are white?
ReplyDeleteNot to worry- KC has solved the problem by removing monuments. We are all safe now
ReplyDeleteDon't give Jean a pass on this. She created NOVA and her failed leadership is responsible too. Young children of color continue to die and she doesn't care.
ReplyDeleteMe thinks that it's a matter of perspective ! KILLA CITY , not long ago was a great place to go to and have a great bunch of fun in Westport and the Plaza area , especially for the average normal white human beings on the weekend to spend money . Now it's a shit hole KILLA CITY death trap that is not worth the risk to go to , less chance of getting robbed mugged raped carjacked assaulted homo molested stabbed shot killed , by going to the Golden Ghetto of South Central Overland Park now , mostly because of the lack of the worthless piece of shit inner city youth scholar's hood rats that aren't there and most everyone carries a great bunch of guns !¡!¡
ReplyDeleteAs long as the wonderful black folks are killing each other, it's a good thing. The fewer of these animals, the better.

ReplyDeleteIs that all you guys have anymore?
^^^ says the prejorative-spewing Antifa Guy? That's rich.
ReplyDeleteThe biggest problem with the KCPD not being able to solve any of these murders it that every dang one of them seems to happen right in front of "Dindoo Nuffin"s cousin. "Dinsee Nuffin"!
