TKC FACT CHECK!!! DEETS ABOUT SUSPECT IN LAS VEGAS MASSACRE DISPROVE ALL OF THE KANSAS CITY STEREOTYPES ABOUT ENTERTAINMENT DISTRICT VIOLENCE!!!



The local coverage of the Las Vegas Massacre has been pretty routine.

There are the typical reports of locals near the scene . . .

Speculation about what would happen if there was a massacre like this in Kansas City and where victims would go . . . Spoiler: KU Med.

However . . .

THE MOST IMPORTANT THING ABOUT THE LAS VEGAS MANDALAY BAY MASSACRE FOR KANSAS CITY IS THAT IT DEBUNKS MANY MISGUIDED IDEAS ABOUT NIGHT LIFE KILLING!!!

Here's our roundup . . .

Young, Black Males Are Often Profiled By Pundits, Politicos And Sometimes Police For Party Scene Violence . . .

Reality: The gunman behind the deadliest mass shooting in modern U.S. history was a 64-year-old Nevada resident who fired out of his room at the Mandalay Bay Resort and Casino before turning his gun on himself, police said.

Open Carry And Loose Missouri Gun Laws Help Prevent More Kansas City Violence By Arming "Good Guys With Guns" Throughout The Metro

While TKC SUPPORTS 2ND AMENDMENT FREEDOM . . . The cowboy mentality which finds comfort in fantasies about gunfighting in the streets has always been suspect and is now easily debunked against a sniper who might have rigged his rifle to get near automatic machine gun capabilities.

Hip-hop Fosters Kansas City Violence

The Las Vegas gunman liked to gamble, listened to country music, lived quiet retired life before massacre. 

While TKC refuses to score one for the GEEZER HATER, this massacre proves that horrific hatred that leads to murder does not always follow demographic trends and not even patterns of previous violence.

And so . . .

Our blog community REJECTS any attempts to use this tragedy for political gain but it's also essential for those with critical minds to understand that stereotypes, misguided preconceptions and outright bigotry that dominates so much talk about local entertainment district public safety has never worked to keep people safe.

You decide . . .

  1. So, what you're saying is that we need to profile haters too?

  4. ^^^ Not even close. White people kill a lot of white people. Far more by sheer number alone. Why? Because this country is still mostly white. You're wrong altogether @6:41. Get your facts straight.

    2. According to the US Department of Justice statistics, 84 percent of white people killed every year are killed by other whites. In 2011, there were more cases of whites killing whites than there were of blacks killing blacks. Between 1980 to 2008, a majority (53.3 percent) of gang-related murders were committed by white people, with a majority of the homicide victims being white as well.

  5. The news media is looking for a way to humanize this guy. Most rich, white men I know are very much like this shooter. I say America keeps denying its violent truth while simultaneously typecasting Black America as problematic. Nearly 95% of all mass shootings are caused by White men. They’re looking to link this to mental illness some way... white people as a whole are inherently mentally ill. Symptons include denial, scapegoating, supreme sense of self, grandiosity and access, lack of personal responsibility, among others.

  14. The post is baloney. Nobody said that blacks are the only ones who kill people with bullets. So do white people, and occasionally east and south asian people too. But the number of incidents of gun homocides (excludes suicides) by blacks is much higher than for any other population segment.

  15. Nice, classy reference to "listened to country music"--much like the CBS Jew Lawyer who posted an absolute lack of of sympathy for "gun-toting Repugs" who were killed and injured in this tragedy. Lame posting, TKC--it is indeed Black people that make enormous swaths of our (once great) cities unlivable, Third-World Shitholes. Get a fucking grip.

  17. The actions of one mentally ill person because only someone who was out of their freaking mind would do something like this. Tony, this wasn't your normal gangbanger/Kansas City thug who does it for creed. But however you look at it neither one is acceptable but neither Vegas or Kansas City's murder counts can really be comparable. Residents in this town know who is killing who the same as they do in St Louis.

    The Vegas killer had a goal what it is nobody may ever know. A sad day for America that an unstable person chooses to randomly kill so many.

They claim to be antifa.

    So 8:29 you're right they are cheering.

  27. TKC, please don't play along with this obviously phony Las Vegas shooter story!

    Until late this afternoon, the only photo made available was the one with his eyes closed, drink in hand. They wanted to quickly establish a false narrative that "Stephen Craig Paddock" was a drunk who hung out in casinos. Then they released a photo that must be 30 years old! Ask yourself why law enforcement didn't release his driver's license photo which they recovered in the hotel room.

    He didn't lose all his money in the casino, which is what a former FBI Assistant Director was speculating on TV this morning. Total unsubstantiated fabrication, to plant a false seed in the public's mind. Casino/hotel staff reported that he was a money winner.

    If you believe the phony media story, you have to believe he went to the Mandalay Bay resort intent on a suicide mission, that he requested a room near the top, facing the concert venue, that he broke out 2 windows drawing attention to his location, that he brought at least 10 long guns into the room prior without drawing attention, that he had a fully automatic weapon, that a 64-yr. old with limited hunting experience successfully fired the automatic weapon, that he left the room lights on while the curtains billowed in the wind and he fired into the crowd, that he didn't leave a suicide note or tell anyone goodbye before beginning, that he left behind a $380,000 retirement house, at least 2 vehicles, reportedly 2 airplanes, and a comfortable pension.

    Was this man a former operative for the intelligence community? Private pilots living in the Southwest, with money to spend, and in possession of firearms have been known to work with American intelligence agencies, drug smugglers, gun-runners, money launderers, etc. No shortage of shady characters in Las Vegas.

    Looks like the FBI screwed this one up, as there's just too many glaring discrepancies to be plausible. Look at MGM (owner Mandalay Bay)company leadership and involvement in Macau. Live Nation Entertainment owns Route 91 Harvest Festival and is led by Greg Maffei and Michael Rapino.

  29. What cold blooded killer isn't mentally ill, Hitler proved that. He saw to the deaths of tens of thousands and was loved by more than that of his country men so go figure. Vegas is a rather peaceful town crime wise when compared to Kansas City.I have been there several times and never had an issue at all. Seen a few loud mouth drunks thrown out heard rumors of stealing but was taught long time ago leave your valuables at home.

    But the action of one cold blooded killer does not excuse the actions or morals of any other killers anywhere. The demographics of crime and who commits them the most in Kansas City and St Louis area both won't go away and won't change either due to the actions of one cold blooded killer. So let's not be comparing what happens else where as an excuse to cover up what is happening in our own neighborhoods.

    A local radio personality went to St Louis a week ago and was the subject of racial taunting and this guy is the least person I know who would bring something like that upon themselves. He was verbally attacked because of simply being white, very unacceptable behavior.

    I calls things as I see them and nothing else. I don't let race facts get in my way. I deal with the evidence and the evidence only.

    In Kansas City and in St Louis we have an issue and it isn't a lone cold blooded killer. Trust me I want to know what happened, what set this cold blooded killer off. What made this killer plan out this attack on a group of people he didn't even know. There were people of all races in that crowd, anyone who has ever been to Vegas can tell you'll see people from all over the world having a good time.

    I don't care who is doing the killing because in the end it has to stop. I'm sick of seeing guns used as an excuse because once again it appears an illegal gun or guns were used and it appears that getting illegal guns into the country isn't hard to do nor is stealing to get them. As I have said all along tougher prison time, more prisons if need be and make sure that knowing you're going to prison is going to be the worse time of your life no matter what color you are and maybe we can reverse the amount of crime taking place. What have we got to lose? Giving criminals more rights than the victims sure has worked out, NOT. Do the crime you lose your rights to anything till you have paid your debt by doing hard time to society.

  30. I would suggest we need to stop the analysis until we have more facts. The is NO evidence to support a theory that this guy was motivated by hatred directed towards the concert, its attendees or anyone associated with it. Based on the information initially available this guy was about symbolism. For example sneaking over two dozen guns for the sake of strategic superiority is a silly premise. This guy knew damn well he could only fire one rifle at a time and it would have been much easier to sneak in 200 loaded magazines than all those guns. It also would have likely made more sense. Even if you consider barrel heating there was no need for over two dozen rifles. This "guns on display" thing is symbolic and represented something else for him and was part of what he wanted to be discovered upon the end of his mission.

    I believe you need to apply the same logic to the selected target. The crowd was large and he know the publicity would have been maximized. He didn't hate the crowd. They were simply pawns in the game. The game included gaining maximum publicity and notoriety. The cliff hanger is discovering what his cause was.

    A number of political players are screaming for more gun control, but it was already illegal for this man to possess a fully automatic firearm. The premise that more laws will protect the masses is and has been bullshit for some time. Making crimes felonies instead of misdemeanors does create more felons, but does nothing to make things safer. Guys like the Vegas nut plan and plot in secrecy - just like the Unibomber. The man re-manufactured firearms into fully automatic weapons with no detection and the only thing he had to do was keep his pie hole shut. He obviously was able to accomplish that. A feller who is willing to haul all those guns into the Mandalay, bust out the windows and rain hell down on folks is not afraid of what might be illegal. He was on a mission. I would suggest that those who wish to seize this as a political opportunity are just ignorant of nomenclature, gun laws that already exist and the motivators that drive these nutballs.

    Given what is known about the M.O. this shooter was not about getting even with anyone. This is more about something he has done, trouble he was in or some personal event or something toxic in his own life. For all we know the guy had Guido after him over his gambling debts.

    We just don't have the info to speculate and be right at this point. In coming days things will begin to unfold and investigators will likely discover the key events that triggered this mass killing. Until then harping about more laws, motives and just shit in general won't be very fruitful.

    I used to live in Las Vegas a long time ago. A very large percentage of the local residents were Mormons. The casinos liked to hire them because they were trust worthy, they didn't drink, gamble or smoke. My point is that The Strip isn't the city, it's just the necessary evil that makes the city work.

    Poor blacks kill each other. I wish that weren't so, but it is. Poor whites are more, ironically, like brothers than poor blacks. However, as everyone knows nearly all mass shootings are carried out by white men. I don't know what motivated him, but Tony's right, that he seems to defy profiling. He had 23 guns in his hotel room & 19 more at home. This does fit with the gun manufacturer's own findings that while less people are buying guns, those buying guns are buying more, & buying larger & more clips.

    Since he's white we'll say that he's mentally ill. If he were black, we would say that he is a thug, & if he were Muslim we would say he was a terrorist believing ISIL's lie. It doesn't matter what stupid labels we apply here.

    I've been there on that strip ...

    The only thing that matters is that it happened, it happened before & therefore, will probably happen again. Which of us will die next time. (Cue the hater who says he wishes it were me.) I don't really care, I've been smoking since I was twenty, & I know my death will not be pleasant or quick.

    But, I have children, & grandchildren, & I care about the world they will be living in. We must stop this insanity, now. 42 guns. Think about that. The next person who says the words Second Amendment to my face gets hit, & I'm going to call it "self-defense".

    Until someone like Lt. Gen. Honore goes door to door & disarms America we will all hide in our homes behind locked doors. Only this will make America Great.
