TKC SUNDAY SPECIAL!!! DOWNTOWN KANSAS CITY GOVERNMENT WORKERS PUSH FOR SECURITY LOCK DOWN AMID IRAN THREAT AFTER AIR STRIKES!!!



As our blog community has noted time and time again, the Federal government is the largest employer in the Kansas City metro.

Tens of thousands of those CIVILIAN workers are concentrated inside the loop. Since 9/11 there has been increased security in and around KCMO but streets surrounding government complexes remain open to the public and still serve as busy traffic thoroughfares.

Accordingly . . .

GOVERNMENT WORKERS CONCERNED FOR PUBLIC SAFETY AMID THE RISING TERRORIST THREAT LEVEL NOW ADVOCATE FOR TIGHTER DOWNTOWN KANSAS CITY SECURITY MEASURES!!!

Remember that there has already been talk about shutting down traffic along Main street as a tribute to the toy train streetcar. The growing threat of terrorism could inspire authorities to cut off or closely monitor more streets in order to keep so many Federal complexes safe.

A quick insider word:

"In most big cities the streets around Federal buildings are now completely blocked off. KC strives to be a major American population center so . . . Sooner or later that's going to happen here. In fact, in the new world we live in I wouldn't be surprised to see most Downtown streets cracking down on traffic. For the average Joe this will mean a heck of a lot of parking tickets will be written in 2020. And workers might want to consider the prospect of a 2nd commute from their cars that might now be MUCH further away from downtown offices."

To be fair, KCPD has not given any guidance about a Downtown security crackdown and this fact has been less than reassuring to many workers who might feel comforted by some/any guidance on the topic.

And so, this inspires our latest Prez Trump and Iran news update focused on the homefront . . .

  1. I think police are prepared but KC is playing things cool for now. Better not to worry people and increase security gradually rather than all of a sudden.

    1. ^^^ Agree about a gradual security increase, that's the way it has usually been done in the past.

  8. A bulletin indicates "current developments or general trends regarding threats of terrorism," as opposed to an "elevated threat" or "imminent threat."

    Hold me, im skeered!

  11. What gubmint workers in kc are demanding is paid time off, take city hall as an example, the mayor, clowncil and all upper management will be awol until the “threat” is over leaving the labor class in the building to do all their work. Works every-time!

    I’m telling you, watch what happens when somebody leaves their lunch box on the steps, it’s a riot to the exits!

  12. Nothing is different today than it was yesterday. Were Iranian proxies involved in bombings and murder before Suleimani's death? Yup. Was Iran directly promoting terrorism toward US, Israel, and allies prior to the killing? Yup.

    Was the US killing Iranians by drone long before they took out Sulemani? Indeed . . . and at a far greater rate than at present.

    The only things different today are the hysterical reporting by the media and the blatant political reasons to speak either for against the recent whacking.

    As far as KC federal buildings being in any greater danger now than they were a few days back . . . give me a break.

  21. Colin Kaepernik is a fucking clown

    He should shut the fuck up

    He took a knee to protest getting benched for Blaine Gabbert and then lied and said some bullshit about social justice and his entire movement was born. Lying ass clown and nobody should listen to that idiot. His 15 minutes was up quite a while ago, now go away Colin.

  22. My former Mission Kansas, IT consulting company boss/owner is more of a local threat than iran. His spending of every cent on his cocaine habit has brought the cartel members to kansas city. Murders are the result. Now cartel members dine and shop amoung us in joco.

    ReplyDelete
  23. 10:21 You are right. Local american drug (recreational) users have brought the murderers from mexico cartels to this area. Cartels have money - so they eat out in nice places and shop at Town Center. They walk around with pistols in the same shops as my family. They drive down the same roads. They buy places in O.P. to live. Our loser citizens that buy their drugs have welcomed them to this town. Our local citizens who give them money are completely responsible for all the murders from the jungles where coca is refined to the streets of Kansas City Ks. rest assured our local citizens will face a judgement day, after which they will be thrown into hell to be in torment forever. God is 100% against drug use.

    ^^I was with you until you started in with the Christian Mythology. People who believe in god are stupid, crazy & dangerous.

    Are these workers the Deep State that Republicans tell us are the enemy of the people? Once again, it's not the foreign terrorist that you need to be worrying about.

  25. ^^^ atheists like yourself, who have managed to obtain political power, have killed Millions of people. They are complete moral nihilists who can not be trusted. And you are are great example. You are the one who is dangerous.
