  4. So let me get this straight:
    Governor Greitens used bondage to tie his mistress to exercise equipment in his basement. And he is accused of blackmail. And that's disgusting.

    But on Fox 4, they celebrate bondage as if it is a "joke", with the NKC School Superintendent who is bound up by students, in a spoof about whether or not he should give up Missouri taxes for one day (districts are not paid when they are not in session) by calling for a Snow Day.

    Seems like NKC is sending the wrong message to impressionable students. And we wonder why they don't seem to get that bullying, extortion and group think hazing etc. is wrong.

  5. BREAKING NEWS: The police chief and mayor stand together against violent crime ....and they wish to hell someone would do something about it.

  6. 8:51 & 9:15 are the type of comments that have me checking here for the laughs. Tracy, you sometimes, give us fun reads with intriguing biographical and historical stuff. But, in regards to this silly stunt with the NKC school super...lighten up. Teens see much shady sh*t on sitcoms, social media, at movies, and likely, at home. Good kids know what's decent in real life, and the goofs that don't will get their hard knocks kind of schooling.

  7. Mayor James is for violent crime, he has proven that in the past with his pizza parties to reward black kids for their behavior. Have they stopped mobbing the Plaza????? NO

    You want to blame someone, blame Sly James. His son is the perfect example, and Sly James is the perfect example of a DEAD BEAT DAD and he wants to curb a city against crime? LOL

  8. Suggestion to North Kansas City - seen if you can't somehow get a few of the KCMOPD Officers to drive down from either the Liberty or Platte City KCPD Stations where they spend all shift hanging out, and ask them to sweep the woods south of Parvin Road and west of I-35 to drive the hobos out of the encampments they have set up in that "KCMO City Parkland Wilderness".

    As the bums cross the city limits into NKC, round them up and give them a free lift South of the River.

    That will cut down on this sort of behavior for a while and will have the side effect of making the NKC Public Library smell better.
