  6. More absurd comments about "public transportation" in lieu of a personal vehicle. For the few with access to public transportation the carless options is an option; but for the many without access to public transportation the carless option isn't an option. Kansas City spends $100 million on public transportation and the end result is unhappy drivers of the buses and a few unhappy riders of the buses. (very few)

    The crime issues as a whole is exasperated by the non functional police department. Non issues for the Kansas City Police department...

    vehicle thefts
    mugging
    fireworks
    burglary
    harassment
    vandalism
    assault

    The Kansas City will visit a major crime such as a murder after the fact, but only in large numbers and only to document the actual crime; not solve the crime. And if you are lucky the KCPD Twitter account will document the misery associated with the crime with a joke or two...
