Grave New Airport Mistake

Construction on new KCI terminal could be disrupting a grave site

  4. Jessica Jane cringed in fear! "is he finally gone?" she thought to herself, "Is it over at last?"

    Yes the Mad Doodler had struck again, using his dastardly Magic Marker to make ugly, poorly executed drawings on the pure, soft skin of another helpless victim!

  5. The slave graves will close the airport as a Federal Ruling is already in the pockets of the Airport Authority and the Slie James file cabinet.

  6. Fuck!!! they are dead and have been for years!! "They" the dead wont complain if planes land on their dead ass!! So why is anyone who is alive? This is a stunt to stop the new airport project via propagana. How is anyone going to PROVE its a burial ground? Are they going to dig up some bone? well that would be more disrespectful to any place someone was buried as opposed to "LIFE GOES ON MOTHER FUCKERS!! So if we cant build where someone is buried from a hundred years back when they didnt do mass burials like in all of our glorious gardens for those that went to a "better" place, why the hell is this even a issue??
