Kansas City Mayor Q Tweets Fiercely Amid Skyrocketing Violence

The response to a spate of Kansas City murders from Mayor Quinton Lucas hasn't just been disheartening, it's an outright betrayal of voters and a sign that there's really no leadership in this cowtown as violence on local streets worsens.

Accordingly . . . 

KANSAS CITY'S MAYOR Q'S 'PLAN' AGAINST RISING VIOLENCE IS NOTHING MORE OR LESS THAN MEAN TWEETS!!!

If you haven't seem them already, we share for further review from our blog community . . .

Check-it . . .

This could've been a bold statement but instead it's just a gateway to more rhetoric delivered by way of social media algorithm.

Don't worry, it gets worse . . .

The follow-up is continued slap fighting over budgetary issues . . .

The serious amount of traffic we're getting today has kinda spooked us and caused us to have a bit less fun with this bit of political misdirection. (Hint: We we're just going to call it a series of lies but I guess we've got to be polite because we see how many people are watching and it's scary.) 

Just a bit of unpacking . . . 

That lawsuit to which this tweet is likely referring was a desperate effort to stop Mayor Q from looting the police budget for an undisclosed slush fund. 

Think about the logic of what the mayor is suggesting for just a second . . .

Mayor Q is blaming police staffing issues on their efforts to fight HIS VERY OWN BUDGET RAID. 

What he's counting on is that people don't understand his argument that's hidden a vast array of partisan garbage. 

For the record . . . 

Here at TKC we respect that kind of duplicity.  

But we wouldn't dare pretend that it's leadership. 

And so our note is really aimed at readers and wanderers . . . 

There's no help coming. 

Mayor Q isn't serious about leading the people of Kansas City through dangerous times. He's still debating the merits of a court case he lost. He's engaging in culture war politics and hoping that social media support provides the illusion of credibility and support. 

Meanwhile, the local body count continues to rise.
