KANSAS CITY COUNCIL LADY ORDERED TO 'IMPLICIT BIAS TRAINING' FOR DARING TO QUESTION SKETCHY AIRPORT REBID!!!
In a dispute betwixt two council ladies it's important to understand that voices were not raised, there were no curses or use of racial epithets and an apology was issued in less than a week. However, mere perception and allegations of racism were enough to distract every Kansas City media outlet from the financial motivations at the crux of this debate.
Mayor Quinton Lucas ordered Council Lady Teresa Loar to "implicit bias training' in an ironic twist of fate given that the mandate for all City Hall workers to undergo this training was devised by Councilwoman Melissa Robinson; the aggrieved party in this 12th and Oak drama.

In the final analysis, council lady Loar merely asked: "Who wrote that for you?" and moved her head in a way that her political opposition didn't appreciate . . . Amid heightened racial tensions, that was enough to garner citywide rebuke and allegations of racism from a coalition of demonstrators. It's not unfair to say that most people couldn't live up to this rigid standard of public behavior in the context of a job that requires tough questions and political challenges. But again, that's not the REAL story.
Now . . .
The easy move is to get worked up about this scream about political correctness like a mini-cable-news talker; but that's not the point of this blog. We want to help readers from every part of Kansas City understand how City Hall REALLY works.
Accordingly . . .
BRAVO!!! UNIONS, CLERGY AND ACTIVISTS EFFECTIVELY USED RACIAL DRAMA TO FLIP AN 80 MILLION DOLLAR AIRPORT BID!!!
For the record, none of this cash was ever going to TKC so we aren't getting too emotional about any of this . . . Instead, helping to UNDERSTAND the distraction is our public service to readers.
The humiliation doled out to Council Lady Teresa Loar comes with the territory of public service . . . And so she's have to avoid eye strain while pretending to pay attention during her political reeducation.
However, media separating the EPIC New KCI pavement contract from this divisive racial drama is an unforgivable omission and doesn't accurately represent the situation.

One more time for the cheap seats . . .
THE ACCUSATIONS OF RACISM WERE AN INTEGRAL PART OF THIS EPIC 80 MILLION DOLLAR NEW KCI REBID PLOY!!!
Credit where it's due . . . The gambit looks successful. At the very least, there will be an opportunity for allies to take a bigger cut out of New KCI.
And again, in this economy, a fight over 80 MILLION BUCKS is worth sacrificing a great deal of dignity.
The only real loser in this situation is any sucker who thinks that THIS HOT MESS will advance the cause of social justice, tolerance or diversity. This is a classic Kansas City shuffle wherein media distraction was essential.
On the bright side, it looks like Council Lady Loar will keep her chairmanship on T&I after the wrist slap as Mayor Q fakes a bold decision without betraying any more of his street cred to protesters or handing over all ensuing New KCI construction decision to protesters.

ReplyDeleteHard to feel save at new KCI if the revs are making all of the decisions.
Sorry.
Any challenger to Councilwoman Robinsion should be accepted. She is not fit to hold office.
Delete^^^
DeleteNO FAT JOKES!
That's racist!
I thought that KCMO had a weak mayor form of government where all 13 of the council members were equals.
ReplyDeleteHow can Lucas "order" anyone to do anything?
Or is the "weak mayor" title just a dodge to shift responsibility when things go terribly wrong?
That's happening pretty much every day, so the excuses should be following.
What a circus!
^^^
ReplyDeleteGood point. The mayor decided committees, it's his biggest power. If Loar doesn't follow orders, she's out.
I'd tell Lucas to pound sand!
ReplyDeleteIs it any surprise that the Bald Man Bad would use racial politics to loot the treasury? No, not really. That is his excuse for every unscrupulous act he commits.
ReplyDeleteHahaha bet Loar will accept her that as a white woman she cannot question a black woman no matter how stupid and incompetent they are.
ReplyDeleteIt's worth noting that the council members were elected by the voters of Kansas City, not hired by the mayor. I'm sure Ms Loar will do what she is told in order to keep the zealots at bay but this crap needs to stop.
ReplyDeleteLoar has been tied to the Garneys for decades.
ReplyDeleteMelissa Robinson has been ties to Popeyes Fried Chicken for decades.
DeleteGood call @9:06. That is an important comment and needed to be mention. Thank you!
ReplyDeleteThe mob is winning and it is color blind.
ReplyDeleteBRAVO!!! UNIONS, CLERGY AND ACTIVISTS EFFECTIVELY USED RACIAL DRAMA TO FLIP AN 80 MILLION DOLLAR AIRPORT BID!!!... These same losers did jackshit about East Patrol and promoted that fucktard weird eye Patsy Klein and others. Put that dumb mutherfucker in implicit bias training...
ReplyDeleteWait till the Airlines say this is a breach of their financing agreement and KCMO taxpayers have to pick up the tab for this $2 Billion fiasco of an airport nobody will use!!!
ReplyDeleteGeorge Soros is building his own private terminal at KCI. This was all for his security.
ReplyDeleteJohnson County should look at building a competing airport like Chicago has Midway and Dallas Fort worth has Love field. It would be a huge success. This could happen if KC botches this up so bad it becomes a huge failure. Black people just have a knack for fucking things up.
ReplyDeleteMelissa Robinson is a fat sow.
ReplyDeleteLoar suggested Robinson was in the pocket of Big Labor, which likely she was. Robinson, ever alert to a race baiting opportunity, took advantage. The Mayor and the Council being spinal column free, Robinson got her way.
ReplyDeleteImplicit bias is a hoax. The results are not consistent from test to test on the same individual. It's like Uighur re-education camp for your subconscious, on order of HR.
ReplyDeleteAs Tony called it, with $80M in the kitty, Q just played his hand. He snatched control from the Airport Authority and quelled resistance on the council. Cleaver and his construction cronies had to have had a hand in this after all the pricey Federal pavement they poured on Troost corridor.
Now the rich white boys in 66208 will back Q because he's got fresh bacon sizzling in the pan. No one local has mixed concrete and politics this well since, well, Pendergast.
The public humiliation of Loar is a coarse but effective exercise of power. To paraphrase Voltaire, it's wise to fire an Admiral from time to time, just to let the others know who's in charge. That's what Q just did. Well, maybe just keel-hauled Admiral Loar.
The worst part of this is Loar called out fatty rob and go for being in the pocket of the unions and somehow this is racist, playing the race card is what illiterate idiots use when they haven’t got the intelligence to respond properly and qball took this as an opportunity to prove he be a black man to his people thinking it makes him look like he’s taking down whitey and saving the day for the rioters and for blacks all over the world.
ReplyDeleteHe’s running the city worse than a ten year would, matter of fact put a ten year old in charge and it would run better.
Bald man bad forgot Loar has more power than he does so look for a retaliatory strike in the near future, qball is out of his league.
ReplyDeleteLucas isn't even a good faker at this point.
ReplyDeleteMelissa rob and go.... that’s a good one! Lol!
ReplyDeleteDid Robinson ever say who wrote it for her?
ReplyDeleteThe mayor is a racist. He should be forced into bias training.
ReplyDeleteTHE WRATH OF THE AWAKENED SAXON
ReplyDeleteby Rudyard Kipling
It was not part of their blood,
It came to them very late,
With long arrears to make good,
When the Saxon began to hate.
They were not easily moved,
They were icy -- willing to wait
Till every count should be proved,
Ere the Saxon began to hate.
Their voices were even and low.
Their eyes were level and straight.
There was neither sign nor show
When the Saxon began to hate.
It was not preached to the crowd.
It was not taught by the state.
No man spoke it aloud
When the Saxon began to hate.
It was not suddently bred.
It will not swiftly abate.
Through the chilled years ahead,
When Time shall count from the date
That the Saxon began to hate.
Ah, Alex I will take Race Card for two billion.
ReplyDeleteMs. Piggy strikes again!!
ReplyDeleteWhiteys always have to apologize no matter the guilt. Except If you are Ellen Degeneres, Then people pray to you and skip to buy Unicorn clothes. 2020 , the dawn of Special interest get out of jail free cancel culture.
ReplyDeleteSo, calling somebody stupid is a racism? So is she saying that only blacks are stupid? I don't know anybody who things that. There is plenty of stupid to go around.
ReplyDeleteDear Mayor and City Clowncil (with one outstanding exception) - You are an embarrassment to this city, you have absolutely no leadership skills, you pander to the violent and whining crowds who bully, destroy, and loot our city and its citizens. Instead of turning your backs on the men and women who serve and protect our city, demanding the chief of police resign, and fighting for local control why don't you get your own house in order? And really the best way to do that is for all of you to resign NOW. Hardworking, taxpaying folks are so incredibly tired of your crap.
ReplyDelete8:10 well said!
ReplyDeleteOk so we are all on the same page that ORGANIZED LABOR is to blame for all this mess. Good. Thank you.
ReplyDeleteMayor Quinton Lucas ordered Council Lady Teresa Loar to "implicit bias training'
ReplyDeleteSCHIZOPHRENIC NARCISSIST QUINTON LUCAS "ORDERS" TERESA LOAR TO ATTEND TRAINING? SOUNDS LIKE A HATE CRIME TO ME! DOES LUCAS THINK LOAR IS ONE OF HIS LAKE OF THE OZARKS GAL-PALS, THAT HE CAN ORDER AROUND? SILLY CUEBALL!
Thoughtcrime detected. Re-education mandated.
ReplyDeleteLoar isn't going anywhere. She was an ardent supporter of Mayor Q prior to his election. He needs her leadership and experience on the council. Mayor Q did what he needed to do to address the situation due to the outcry. We all could use a little training on bias. It can be an unconscious thing, and I expect Loar to benefit and therefore I expect our city to benefit.
ReplyDeleteOh good god. Please STFU!
