There was absolutely no surprise that Kansas City BLM murals were vandalized.
Even worse, so-called supporters of "law & order" have seemingly embraced the loathsome practice of vandalism which stains the entire metro.
Most of the discussion has been reactionary garbage, here's one bit of wisdom which stands above the rest and remains true to Kansas City's creative spirit:
"Harold Smith, who designed the mural near the intersection of Northwest Briarcliff Parkway and North Mulberry Drive, said that rather than cover and repaint the tire tracks, he suggested embracing the "additions."
"Black culture and Black art has always taken Black pain and the things that happened to create more art," he said.

Skidmarks are the height of KC creativity. Sorry.
ReplyDelete^^^
DeleteMAGA creativity maybe.
Heading that way with my very oil leaking truck. Will be sure to drive over those as much as I can.
ReplyDeleteMAGATS being maggots. What happened to following, “law and order?” Yeah. We get it.
ReplyDeleteSo now you like law and order, when something meaningful to YOU gets damaged.
DeleteYou're a child.
^^^Which laws were broken? Which crimes were committed?
ReplyDeleteYou don't get it at all.
In the mid 70s it was ticketed as "mass exceleration" and was a 25$ fine...
DeleteJust another person's form of protest. Nothing wrong with that.
ReplyDeleteCouncilwoman Eric Bunch can just STFU about things that happen in the part of his District north of the River. He ignored that 1/5 of his District during his Campaign, and has continued to do so since he took Office.
ReplyDeleteIf he and Councilwoman Shields both choose to totally ignore one in five of their constituents the way they have so far, they can certainly ignore this matter at well and merely pander to that part of their District stagnating in the South!
Spilling paint and reckless driving are misdemeanor crimes.
ReplyDeleteDefacing the murals was also vandalism.
If you defend one instance, you have no credibility to complain about it when it hits YOUR neighborhood.
Sorry, providing cover and advertising for a criminal flash mob invalidates your fake law and order stance.
DeleteThis is great! Putting this garbage on a street at that location was giving the finger to the northland. I wish I had done this and more. BLM is a fraud.Based on lies. Hopefully someone will come along and finish the job. Using public street for political propaganda is wrong.
ReplyDeleteMaga skidmarks, that makes sense for all of the boomers with shitty pants who will vote for Trump.
ReplyDeleteChange your diaper!
Will you change Biden's diapers? He's almost a total care patient.
DeleteI’ll change my diaper if you stop blowing goats.
DeleteIt's a peaceful protest where no one actually gets hurt and no one is burned out of their houses and business.
ReplyDelete^^^ If we choose to do so, we'll stuff the used one down your throat, Junior!
ReplyDelete^^but you guys NEVER choose to do so. It's why everybody hates you. You guys stink to high heaven!
ReplyDeleteWhy do we forget that Trump is only 33 months younger than Biden?
ReplyDeleteIs there really that much of a difference between these two grumpy old white men?
Yes, since you ask.
DeleteTrump has handled a stupidly partisan and hostile press almost on a daily basis since day one.
Biden has to be handled very carefully to even function in public; he can barely handle reading from a teleprompter. And he's fucked that up like Ron Burgundy a few times. ;)
Carry on.
ReplyDeleteThe beloved and worshiped BLM are chanting F*** Jesus in the streets of Charlotte NC. Isn't it funny how they can shove their hate and racism down our throats and yet they cry like babies when fans boo at the ball game. Anyone see the signs of Nazi Germany here? Mayor Lucas and his black panthers are extremely dangerous.
That hate graffiti is on the street where cars drive over what do they expect to happen.
Kansas Shitty, I TOLD YA SO!!!!!
ReplyDeleteHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA!!!!
"Harold Smith, who designed the mural near the intersection of Northwest Briarcliff Parkway and North Mulberry Drive, said that rather than cover and repaint the tire tracks, he suggested embracing the "additions."
ReplyDeleteHarry needs more burnout marks to embrace.
BLM's are a sick combination of militant socialists / muslims and spoiled, entitled white kids that were coddled by mommy and daddy for year and have no idea who they are or where they are going. The BLM crowd is hijacking these idiots like Hitler did the Germans.
ReplyDeleteI don't want to hear a word from these kids about their support for "Black Struggle" when their biggest struggle is which model Porsche they want to ask for on their birthday from their parents.
ReplyDeleteDrove over that "mural" on Briarcliff this morning --it is TOTALLY obliterated!
Awesome!! the Northland represents!! Fuck BLM --keep that Hate Whitey BS south of the river.
I hope you realize that this is bad karma for you on your life journey.
DeleteHate inside you will damage your spirit.
One day you will see the light and want to make amends for the damage you have caused.
Atonement is the path to enlightenment.
Please do not damage any more large Art.
Peace out.
When the Mayor and City Council decided to cave into the BLM crap they had to know that 70% of the population would not be in favor of spending city resources on this folly. Capitulating to the minority that is pissed off because they are not allowed to Burn, Loot and Murder without being held responsible, I don't care if Patrick Mahomes and the Chiefs support it or not. I suspect that every one of the illegal installations of street painting will soon be so defaced the city will spend big money AGAIN to remove them. The leadership in KCMO is so atrocious that I can't see how there has not been a complete insurrection and upheaval of the citizenry to overthrow these idiots. Patrick Mahomes and the Chiefs have overspent their championship capital already and they should prepare for the backlash coming down Arrowhead Drive soon.
ReplyDeleteBravo! Take a stand against the forced endorsement of BLM fascist thuggery!
ReplyDelete10:59: You bet I'm willing to change Biden's Depends, assuming he needs then and needs them to be changed, but you might point out to Trump's keepers that his Depends keep overflowing and if he's not willing to change them, he could at least wear brown pants.
ReplyDeleteWeak
DeleteWhy be surprised that putting the letters of an anti-American, Marxist organization that wants to destroy our country would cause some reaction? It's like putting KKK on the streets and not expecting a reaction.
ReplyDelete"Defacing the murals was also vandalism."
ReplyDeletePainting the murals was nothing but legally sanctioned vandalism.
"If you defend one instance, you have no credibility to complain about it when it hits YOUR neighborhood."
That's an interesting comment considering what you're supporting. Did you already forget the Plaza? The downtown courthouse? The KCPD memorial? How many instances of "Fuck 12" throughout the entire metro area have you personally helped remove?
You're absolutely right. You have no credibility to complain.
How does one know the tire marks in question wasn't someone slamming on the brakes to keep from hitting something? I mean after all it is a street where cars are driving back and forth on. If people were stupid enough to think these paintings were going to remain spotless or damage free are those who are as clueless as to how our world works and probably life in general.
ReplyDelete"There was absolutely no surprise that Kansas City BLM murals were vandalized.
ReplyDeleteEven worse, so-called supporters of "law & order" have seemingly embraced the loathsome practice of vandalism which stains the entire metro."
EVEN WORSE?? THE TAXPAYER STREETS WERE VANDALIZED WHEN THE BLM SCUM PAINTED ON THEM. CITIZENS ARE JUST RETURNING THEIR STREETS BACK TO NORMAL POTHOLED CONDITION.
^^ And yet you believe in violence against people and their property ... hypocrite.
ReplyDeleteNothing is worse than fat white women longing to join the "booming racial grievance" industry, these pitiful poseurs want to be included in black supremacy's mythology. No doubt, they were sweating to the oldies helping the city government thugs inflict more agitprop into our lives "by any means necessary".
ReplyDeleteLike so many black Americans, these women simply want to be looked upon as carrying the heaviest historic baggage; nobler and more righteous than the rest.
The words "preordained and predetermined" are key to understanding Critical Race Theory and the need to proclaim their superiority with virtue signalling graffiti in the streets, according to which power relationships in society are proscribed – and statically fixed for posterity.
Consequently, Critical Race Theory and BLM always inveighs against whites and for other, more exotic identities.
It's an ORIGINAL SIN TO BE BORN WHITE NOW.
^^ Talking about the commenter in quotes in 11:40.
ReplyDeleteMan . . . the BLM/Antifa crowd are treating these "murals" like they're a Banksy original
ReplyDeleteNo . . . just some unoriginal words stenciled on pavement with cheap Glidden
Tire sellers and transmission shops beg city for more murals.
ReplyDeleteIf everyone treated their brothers and sisters with RESPECT we wouldn't be criticizing art. Art adds meaning and color to our lives, shows us who we are.
ReplyDeleteWe need some signs to slow down the leadfoots and braker-haters who are trying to damage the art work. Maybe like a stop sign that says CAUTION. ART AHEAD.
Me, I am careful not to drive or step on the art work. It is spiritual and meaningful that KC has the best BLM murals in the country,and the Chiefs too. So mich positive energy concentrating in one place.
As a personal goal I have challenged myself to visit all six. My friend says I should start a gofundme page.
Peace out and good vibes KC.
12:45 That's really nice and everything, but boy did we fuck up.
ReplyDelete12:45 Cupcakes with chocolate laxative sprinkles and well-hung unicorn warm and fuzzies to you.
ReplyDelete
ReplyDeleteI think the Northland just gave Lucas a big F*ck You ^^^^^^^^
I hope to burn some rubber on at least a couple of these this weekend.
ReplyDeleteBTW, fuck Harold Smith!
ReplyDeleteThe vandals, I would call them heroes, were more than likely good black citizens of Kansas City as fed up with this hate culture as those who BLM stands against. Who is to say the road wasn't just a little slippery or that they didn't have to stop quickly or speed up quickly in order to avoid an accident? Actually, I had an unavoidable accident on that mural when I couldn't quite make it to the bathroom. To the black people who made "additions" to that mural, way to make your voices heard, and I salute you!
ReplyDeleteSo the vandalism was vandalized?!
ReplyDeleteI was going to say that. The vandalism was vandalized...lol........
ReplyDeleteF--k BLM bunch of Black Karen's. Get a job earn the freedoms this country gives everyone. Don't fight with police avoid PCP. Not hard to figure out.
ReplyDeleteEverybody please do not deface or drive over the murals. They are Art and hold meaning not just for KC but for the whole country. The eyes of America are on us.
ReplyDeleteIf you feel angry, count to ten slowly. I do this and it is helpful. Also think about Yoga and what your friends would think. We can respect our differences and still be a city.
Jesus once said an eye for an eye and the whole world is blind.
Peace out KC.
@12:45 and @7:25 if a certain Minority in this City took your advice our Homicide Count would be a lot lower. Secondly, you say they are "Art", but their scale is far larger than anything the individual can grasp unless flying high off the ground, and therefore they fail at the Prime Directive of "Art" which is communication with the individual.
ReplyDeleteSo, if they become "not Art" then their only justification is as "performance", and the performance of those you label "Vandals" is just as valid as those you term "creators", and in fact, can arguably meet the Prime Directive of "communication" far more than the originals do, since the statements made are more easily grasped at the individual level.
Peace out and try reality, Brother it's a Blast!
I know the so-called topcoat they used (I called and asked the organizers) It's called MasterKure CC 250SB. It is not a topcoat. It is used for new concrete which helps the concrete cure without cracking. It's a curing agent.
ReplyDeleteWhen I spoke to the company that manufactures the product they said that it is not intended to be used as a topcoat. The tech spec on this particular product noted that there can be "tire-burning" or
in regular people's terminology "black tire marks".
Oh, and by the way, it is not to be sold to the general public. Whoever donated that product is responsible.
Here are spec sheets for the product produced by BASF.https://www.master-builders-solutions.com/en-us/products/concrete-surface-treatment/concrete-curing-compounds/masterkure-cc-250sb
“Everybody please do not deface or drive over the murals.” Ummmmm....the murals are IN THE MIDDLE OF THE STREETS!
ReplyDeleteAre you suggesting that I avoid the murals and, say, drive on the sidewalks?!
If you don’t want people to drive over your artwork, maybe you should’t put it on the middle of the street!!!
Oh, so the topcoat isn’t a real topcoat. So let’s go blame the nice people who paid for it (I’m sure it wasn’t cheap) and kindly donated it to your projects.
ReplyDeleteMaybe if you put your artwork on a wall or somewhere other than the streets, where cars and trucks drive, you wouldn’t have to worry about it.
Lots of folks assisting BLM have no idea of their EVIL agenda. It has nothing to do with DEATHS or mistreatment OF BLACKS at the hands of Police.
ReplyDeleteIt's a cover to stimulate EMOTIONS OF BLACKS AND MISINFORMED BLACKS AND WHITES THAT THEIR DOING SOMETHING NOBLE AS A THROW BACK TO MARTIN LUTHER KING DAYS.
Those issues were real and did not promote the homosexual agenda,OR VIOLENCE which is being boldly promoted along with the defund the police scam.
Lots of wisdom minded folks waking up to the SCAM FLU SHOTS WITH MIND CONTROL DRUGS LACED IN AND COVID VIRUS AND THE RIOTS AND GIVING DISSIDENTS MONEY IN SCAMS LIKE BEN CRUMP PULLS.
RESEARCH HOW MANY OF THESE BLM MAYORS AND GOVENORS ARE ASSOCIATED WITH DARREN WALKER FORD FOUNDATION AND OPEN SOCIETY GEORGE SOROS CLINTON FOUNDATION AND ROCKER FELLER AND CARNEIGE BILL GATES FOUNDATIONS FUNDING THIS EVIL DESTRUCTION.
THESE FOUNDATIONS ARE COOL WITH CITIES BEING TORN UP IN AMERICA AND AROUND THE WORLD. YOU WON'T HEAR THIS IN THE NEWS BUT THEY ALL HAVE HAD PLANNED SCAM GEORGE FLOYD INCIDENTS IN COLUMBIA SOUTH AMERICA PHILLIPINES AFRICA AND ALMOST EVERY COUNTRY. SAME BS GOING IN ALONG WITH FOOD SHORTAGES, LOCKDOWNS LOSS OF JOBS AND JUMP THE COPS MINDSET.
THEY ALL HAVE FORMS OF BLM AND ANTIFA THERE. DO PUT TWO AND TWO TOGETHET MASTERMINDS.. ALONG WITH THE MAN-MADE CORONA VIRUS... THAT USING A FAKE VIRUS TESTER CREATED IN 1999 UNDER POINT OF CARE OWNED BY BILL GATES HE BOUGHT FROM ALERE INC IN 2013 FOR 43 MILLION THEN SHIFTED TO ABBOTT LABS UNDER ID NOW.
FAUCI AND GATES AND REDFIELD WILL FACE THE GALLOWS
IT TOOK THE MY PILLOW GUY 2 YRS. TO MAKE A PILLOW.. SO A VACCINE TAKES YEARS TO MAKE AND TEST.. TAKE IT AND YOUR TOAST... BEHIND MALARIA LACED VIRUS THATS SPRAYED BY PLANES.
GOD IS ON TO ALL OF THIS AND SO ARE HIS PEOPLE...
Lots of folks need the love of JESUS even the BLM. WE DECLARE They AND ALL GOVERNMENT OFFICIALS will be under the submission of the almighty ONE AND ONLY TRUE GOD. IN JESUS NAME.
ReplyDeleteSince these named foundations openly funded the riots and antifa and BLM it should be only fitting that those who financially harmed by this seek financial compensation.
ReplyDeleteOpen society foundation george Soros bill gates foundation FORD foundation ceo darren walker Obama foundation clinton foundation Carnegie foundation rockerfeller foundation these are only a few that alleged assisting with financial support to BLM and ANTIFA.
Lots of folks energized by cash to do this...
Gods JUSTICE..gotta love it..
HOW ABOUT A GOSPEL CONCERT WITH KIRK FRANKLIN TASHA COBBS JERKALYN CARR HEZEKIAH WALKER .
ReplyDeleteJOHN HAGEE PREACHING THIS WILL RUN THE DEMONS BACK TO HELL AND CONVERT OTHERS TO JESUS. ANGELS WILL PRESIDE OVER THE CITY. PEACE WILL PRESIDE OVER ALL.
THIS IS NOT JUST A SIN PROBLEM BUT A SPIRITUAL BATTLE OF GOOD VS EVIL.
AMEN
