Suggestions are welcome given that some of the most dedicated people are working to help curb the local crime rate but have yet to find a solution . . .
You decide . . .
New idea is the old idea and a good one.
ReplyDeleteMore police enforcing the law and more judges, prosecutors and voters backing them up.
This shithole is crawling with criminals. Street, White Collar, Political..
ReplyDeleteWelcome to the renaissance
With ad Hoc and Aim4Peace getting some TV face-time recently, the crimes scourge in KCMO is sure to end soon.
ReplyDeleteHo many millions of tax dollars have just these two organizations blon through over the years.
Not even counting the rest of the urban core grifters and ineffective programs from out-of-town professors.
More cops in high-crime parts of the city.
Some minimal leadership from urban core "leaders".
Lots more cooperation from residents with police.
Competent serious prosecution and tough sentences.
Put some of this wasted money where it actually might make a difference.
Time to call Wickham-James for advise on how to deal with crime.
ReplyDelete^^^ LOL
ReplyDeletewell you said suggestions were welcome
ReplyDeleteBIANCA: TO CURE A DISEASE, TREATMENT NEEDS TO BE APPLIED TO THE ROOT PROBLEM.
ReplyDeleteAnd we all know what the "root problem" is, don't we.
Society in general has regressed tremendously over the past decade. KC is just another casualty of a lost generation of people who will never conform to societal norms and who are teaching the next generation to be even worse. Hold on KC, it’s about to get worse.

ReplyDeleteYes I hate to say it but Kansas City has a problem with black people everyone knows that, and Kansas City is not handling crime seriously, and if they try to do anything we have idiots like Beyonce starting street fights between cops and black people. I don't see it ever getting better only worse. I just hope innocent people are ready for what is coming, because it doesn't look good.
stop throwing good money after bad. No more anti-crime welfare.
ReplyDeleteAnd more money for more police. Take it from the developers.
ReplyDelete8:52 is right, we all have been saying that same thing for years now, Petersucker being the worthless bitch that she is isn’t helping us one bit either. Time to eliminate the problems.
ReplyDeleteGet rid of Jean Petersucker Baker and replace her with a prosecutor who will aggressively go after criminals and put them in prison for as long as possible. Also, get rid of any liberal fag judge that got his law degree at shithole UMKC. As in most of our judges.
ReplyDeleteWhy do we need new ideas?
ReplyDeleteTrump said this American carnage was ending January 20, 2017. Right here and right now. He alone can fix it.
I don’t know, why don’t we ask the family members of the over 1100 murdered in the last 8 years, maybe the new lobbyist wickham and James can fix it, wait, what? Thats the same slie James that was mayor during this horrendous murder spree? God help us all.
ReplyDeleteCCW 24/7
ReplyDeleteMore Hot-Air from KCPD.
ReplyDeleteIf you give the police more money they’ll get more radar guns and plate readers to make more money nothing will change
ReplyDeleteThe only solution is we all move to Alaska there’s no murdering thieving jigaboos up there
ReplyDeleteProsecutor and judges...
ReplyDeleteBut this is the result of what happens when a society, a culture, decides to side with it's criminals. Sorry, with it's "justice involved individuals"
Jean Petersucker Baker is a criminal’s best friend
ReplyDeleteJust think how many cops they could've hired with all that TIF money they gave away.
