KANSAS CITY STARTS COUNTING 2021 HOMICIDE AFTER DEADLY NEW YEAR'S DAY SLASHING AND GUNFIRE!!!

Today, 2021 repeated a familiar pattern and proved that new year's resolutions don't really mean much when circumstances haven't changed. 

To wit . . . 

The legacy of last year's historic murder count follows us into the new year with continued tragedy. 

Narrative . . . 

A woman in her 40s was stabbed shortly before 10 p.m. on Thursday night near Interstate 435 and Truman Road. The victim, who was transported to a local hospital in critical condition, died Friday morning from her injuries. 

“Officers located a crime scene at that location on Truman (Road) and Crime Scene Investigators processed the scene at that time last night,” KCPD Sgt. Jake Becchina, a department spokesperson, said in an email Friday morning.

Deets . . 

"The deadly shooting happened near 43rd Street and Parallel Parkway on Friday. KCK police said the victim, a man in his 40s who hasn’t been publicly identified yet, was found outside Friday in an embankment, making it less obvious. Police believe the shooting happened earlier in the morning."

In conclusion, it's important to remember that recent lockdowns haven't really kept people completely safe and serve to spark a horrific cultural shift. One example out of many . . .

  1. Probably will set another record because of the worsening poverty.

    1. I don't expect a lot of optimism on this blog but it's a little bit early to give up on the year on just day one.

  2. 6:18 ^^ Poverty ? Is that why people kill over dope and "disrepect" ? It's a culture problem. Weird

  4. Time for another hard-hitting KC Star editorial blaming everything and everybody but the people who are actually causing all the east side carnage.
    Or maybe another ponderous appearance on CNN by kneely Lucas.
    The very definition of insanity.

  5. We need more strict knife control laws.

  6. This year will be a record too.

  7. When you effectively disarm the criminal class, then and only then can we talk gun control. Until that happens go fuck yourself. Liberals have zero credibility on this issue.

  8. Nobody is to blame except the person who pulled the trigger. I get tired of hearing everybody trying to make a political point by blaming the mayor, or the police. I do believe that the system should make a more concerted effort to take a lot of these bad boys off the streets. If that doesn't happen, then it will continue. Also New Years proved that there are way too many guns on the streets.
    So much for this freedom to bear arms crap.

  13. Who let the token Kansas City Star columnist in?

  14. 9:09, once again you prove to us how ignorant you are. All 200 murders were not victims of a gun shot. They were victims of a person(s) that choose to kill them by many means. Perhaps you might study the leading cause of murders in Countries if guns are banned. Ever see any one diced into pieces ? You might consider the act of murder and who is responsible for it. Forget blaming the method they choose to use. A killer is the problem. Nothing else to point a finger at. Blames could be endless and the people that can't figure out the obvious.

  15. Banning guns leads to illegal guns and increased knife attacks. Take away the knives and they will use clubs. It's a cultural thing. Focus on fixing the culture instead of blaming the weapon instead of the criminal that used it.

    ReplyDelete
  16. Take away the blacks and 98% of the problem goes away.

  17. None of the liberals will ever go for that. They like them as pets.

    ReplyDelete
  18. Aren't there laws against keeping wild animals as pets?

    ReplyDelete
  19. Free citizens must protect themselves because police do not protect you from crime, they just investigate the crime after it happens and then call someone in to clean up the mess.

  30. We act like last year was the first year that the Black community killed over 100 people in KC. Was all the hype just a show for the protests or so we could comfort ourselves for knowing something that seems to be an annual tradition in every large community across America. Demand more, ask them to stop their History or violence instead of constant racism claims( look up the statistics of White nationals killing blacks then compare them to blacks killing non blacks). Think America is any different than any country in Africa ? Prove me wrong, demand to see pictures of the victims, then demand to see pictures of the Murderer. Then all super sleuths can report back. There will never be an end as long as there is denial and excuses. I am not willing to make excuses for any murderer by race. Make certain you don't as well. You can't take any category of people serious if they can maintain their own and they maintain their own stereotype instead
