Kansas City Mayor Q Tweet Proclaims 'Black People Hunted' After Buffalo N.Y. Massacre

After a recent trip to D.C. to back Prez Biden's forum on support for law enforcement . . . Kansas City Mayor Quinton Lucas shares a stunning social media statement that has already sparked controversy amongst even his most loyal supporters.

To wit . . . 

AS TEMPERS FLARE ACROSS THE NATION FOLLOWING HORRIFIC BUFFALO N.Y. MASS MURDER: MAYOR Q OFFERS SOCIAL MEDIA DECLARATION "BLACK PEOPLE HUNTED" TO HIS TENS OF THOUSANDS OF FOLLOWERS!!!

TRAGICALLY, LOCALS HAVEN'T BEEN INSPIRED INTO AN UPROAR OVER KANSAS CITY HOMICIDE NUMBERS THAT CONTINUE ALONG A RECORD BREAKING PACE!!!

Accordingly . . .

We share further reading and invite (hopefully) thoughtful commentary from our blog community.
