This time around broken promises about police staffing levels can be blamed on the pandemic. Never mind that KCMO has FAILED to live up to a 1968 pledge to increase staffing levels for law enforcement.
Now that the budget is busted, cuts threaten police just like every other city hall department.

KCPD force reduction likely, with or without budget cuts
KANSAS CITY, Mo. - There could soon be fewer police officers on patrol in Kansas City. The possibility comes as deadly violence is headed toward a grim record for 2020. There have been 145 homicides in Kansas City, Missouri, so far this year, compared with 119 at this same time last year.
Cut the civilian staff, not cops.

ReplyDeleteSmith is stupid and this is not caused by the pandemic. How could it be?? That is the dumbest excuse I have ever heard. It's caused by letting criminals out and turning around only to charge them over and over again. Smith needs to grow a spine and take a stand against Peters Baker and the weak judges who pander to criminals for votes from their mommies and daddy's.
Any cuts in police should come from money spent policing the shithole ghetto. Those people, including the fat fake revruns are anti-police. Stop spending resources on black on black crime.
ReplyDeleteBuild a wall around the ghetto. Simple really.

ReplyDeleteNeighborhood watch may have to become neighborhood militia. If we can't count on city hall to maintain an adequate police then law-abiding citizens will have to resort to creating their own security.
ReplyDeleteIs Q taking a pay cut? I would bet the city would run better on its own without this disaster there.
