GOJO'S SHUTS DOWN AFTER 40 YEARS FOLLOWING KANSAS CITY MAYOR Q COVID-19 CURFEW CRACKDOWN!!!

An iconic Kansas City restaurant is calling it quits after 40 years and less than 72 hours after some of the most severe public health restrictions have been announced by Mayor Quinton Lucas. 

To wit and given that this establishment survived the lockdown but doesn't seem to have much confidence about doing biz in KCMO under the rule of Mayor Lucas . . .

GOJO'S SHUTTING DOWN SIGNALS MORE SUFFERING EXPECTED FOR KANSAS CITY BIZ AND WORKERS UNDER SEVERE COVID-19 RESTRICTIONS!!!

Moreover . . .

THE MAYOR'S SUPPORTERS BLAME THE PANDEMIC AND PUT PRESSURE ON THE REPUBLICANS FOR MORE STIMULUS DESPITE KANSAS CITY BIZ OUTCRY!!!

Accordingly . . . 

We understand public health concern and contend that a better solution exists in partnership with local biz rather than imposing draconian measures. To be certain, GoJo's wasn't attracting rowdy crowds of late night party people who didn't care about COVID but the closure of this restaurant signals the far-reaching impact of restrictions that weren't well thought out and didn't include small biz or even seek to create a consensus. 

More to the point . . .

THE MAYOR'S SUPPORTERS FOCUS ON DEBATING BIZ OWNERS & FORGET ABOUT SO MANY NEWLY LAID OFF WORKERS!!!

The message GoJo's put on blast on their way out . . .

“We wanted to take the time to thank you all for your patience and understanding,” the restaurant said Thursday. “Our 40-year legacy starts and ends with our customers. We are so grateful for your continued support and loyalty for the last four decades and hopefully for several more to come. While we are sad that we can no longer serve you meals, we are honored to have celebrated your birthdays, proms, anniversaries, promotions and more. We hope our legacy will continue on in your home through our sauces as you continue to celebrate one another through a good meal and great experiences.”

  1. Expect a growing exodus of business in 2021.

    KC doesn't make sense with all of these restrictions. A lot of people were operating safely.

    Why not focus on the rule breakers and not make blanket decisions for everybody.

    1. In its heyday this was one of the best places in KC.

      It had good years and bad but could have been sold successfully. I guess operating a restaurant in KC doesn't make much sense now.

  6. Corona = complete hoax.

    Democrats all over the country, especially in states where feckless, fiscal, folderol passes for good stewardship of tax payer monies for the Progressive fucktards in charge, this is the Golden Ticket. If Biden gets past all the now, or soon to be sitting Grand Juries and is "Inaugurated" (He most certainly was NOT elected.), then the Mayors and Governors of said states and cities will have their hands out for Gubmint Cheese, financed by the people in states and cities who were not fiscally irresponsible.

    This is why the Democrats held up the stimulus which might have saved who knows how many business' and people's lives, they wanted the whole banana, the bail out of pensions, especially in California and Illinois. That is why there is no relief on the way and why there won't be any for the foreseeable future.

    Another comment from another expert, who KNOWS, as do most Democrat politicians, that this shit is a hoax.

    --------------------------------------------------------------------

    Noting that he was also an expert in virology, renowned pathologist Dr. Roger Hodkinson pointed out that his role as CEO of a biotech company that manufactures COVID tests means, “I might know a little bit about all this.”



    “There is utterly unfounded public hysteria driven by the media and politicians, it’s outrageous, this is the greatest hoax ever perpetrated on an unsuspecting public,” said Hodkinson.



    Hodkinson remarked that “social distancing is useless because COVID is spread by aerosols which travel 30 meters or so before landing,” as he called for society to be re-opened immediately to prevent the debilitating damage being caused by lockdowns.



    Hodkinson also slammed mandatory mask mandates as completely pointless.



    “Masks are utterly useless. There is no evidence base for their effectiveness whatsoever,” he said.



    “Paper masks and fabric masks are simply virtue signalling. They’re not even worn effectively most of the time. It’s utterly ridiculous. Seeing these unfortunate, uneducated people – I’m not saying that in a pejorative sense – seeing these people walking around like lemmings obeying without any knowledge base to put the mask on their face.”



    The doctor also slammed the unreliability of PCR tests, noting that “positive test results do not, underlined in neon, mean a clinical infection,” and that all testing should stop because the false numbers are “driving public hysteria.”



    Hodkinson said that the risk of death in the province of Alberta for people under the age of 65 was “one in three hundred thousand,” and that it was simply “outrageous” to shut down society for what the doctor said “was just another bad flu.”

  9. If a forty year old business couldn’t survive, nothing can. Only killer kc and the dimwit rulers could do this all in the hopes that China joe will give him hundreds of millions of dollars of federal money, the sad part is not one penny will go to the businesses that had to close permanently because of failed leadership. Truly sad.

  11. We won’t be operating a business in KC.
    In addition to poor leadership regarding Covad-19, the so called
    Health expert Wrecks Archer has made suggestions that are as
    Laughable as anyone getting pulled over for doing a 69 in a 55.

    The. They want to tax me and my employees 1% for nothing I
    can’t get in any other city because they can’t do budgets without it.
    What happens when they realize the casinos didn’t make much and
    can’t find schools?

    KC citizens: Recall the Mayor 10-10-10 and at least give businesses a
    chance instead of a newbie 35-year-old tax and spend Mayor 10-10-10... recall him.

  12. As a close follower of Lenin and Marx and Stalin-
    just wanted to say kudos to KC leadership for
    finally starting a Communist-Socialist society!

    You are doing great and keep up the work!
    All us former dictators and leaders of the CCCP
    are proud you are shutting down businesses and
    can finally open up state-run stores and such!

    Take land and money by taxes and give to others
    and you will be right on your way to Gulags and
    KGBs that everyone will love! ( buy all their guns... don’t forget that!)

  13. So happy I left KC. You idiots not the mayor are reason this business is shutting down. Had you idiots paid attention to someone other than biggest loser since the confederates, you would wear masks and stem the pandemic. Covid give no fucks what you fake prolife nazi idiots think. Businesses close due to the disease you are pro business and truly conservative get your heads out of your ass and put on a gotdamn mask to save the rest of us you lazy bastards. And fuck Tony and his ilk. I wish Trump would have separated you from your madre in a cage at the boarder hombre!

  17. Quinton Lucas is a puppet and he is being told what to do by the people over him. He is to cowardly to stand up to them aka the very wealthy globalists who run the world. Mark my words, he will on cue destroy the economy in this city. That is their objective. Hopefully this will all be exposed soon. Those who can't see it are just stupid.

  18. Let me guess, the Deep State is telling the mayor what to do, right?

  20. I went to Gojos about 10 years ago. It was okay.

  21. First time I went to gojos was borrowing dad's nice car and taking my prom date there. Been their countless times since. It's a shame. The progressives are waging a very successful campaign on the middle class right now. Unfortunately for the ownership, you can make good money in a restaurant but you don't really accumulate physical value, just cache which means little when the progs stop people from coming through your doors.

  22. That place has decor from 40 years ago. All off the sudden they got sauce ready to roll out. They’ve planned this for a while.
