KCFD EMT MEMORIAL SEEMS TO VIOLATE SOCIAL DISTANCING RULES!!!

There are a lot more than 9 people there and they're standing very close together . . . The mayor & new fire chief presided as the rules don't always seem to apply equally under a lockdown that might go another three weeks.

  1. Something to remember when they talk about disproportionate impact in the community.

  2. So you can’t sit in your car and hear a church service, but you can break the social distance rules for a balloon launch. Perfect.

  3. This is what Quinton Lucas excels at...posturing.
    You might think that the Mayor of KCMO would be busy at his office, you know, getting important work done. But once again, the social butterfly Cheerleader-in-Chief of this Cowtown is busy pandering to a special-interest group who contributed to his campaign.
    No disrespect intended, at all, to the EMT who died in this instance, but Lucas is the type who's always looking to "offer thoughts and prayers", light up a building in color, turn on a fountain, hold a prayer vigil, or take a selfie, all while pontificating in front of the cameras and hoping for a sound-bite in the national media.
    Whatever happened to the modest, humble professional public servant who got the job done largely in anonymity?
