There's a minor league controversy in Midtown Kansas City that deserves our attention because it's either silly or a meaningful local sign of an American cultural shift.
We're not completely sure because Kanye has confused us about what's right and wrong.
But I digress . . .
Here's the basics of the story . . .
This week a local Karen garnered attention from city hall given that her keen eye for complaints caught a provocative and ancient symbol . . .

She must have great eyes because she spotted the Confederate flag from a moving car . . . It's barely visible but still provoked the ire of this crusader.

Her public message sent city hall and council members . . .
"Trying not to be ungrateful. But how does THIS truck get brought in to do work in my neighborhood, @kcmo @EricWBunch @Robinson4kc? I’m going to guess many of your employees find this symbol of hate offensive too."
Strangely enough . . . Her complaint earned a reply and the city investigated this contractor's vehicle and the offensive signage . . .
We're still waiting on the determination from the investigation . . .
In the meantime, we think this debate deserves more attention.
Accordingly, we ask our blog communities . . .
GIVEN THE INFREQUENCY OF KCMO STREET REPAIR: IS IT UNGRATEFUL TO ASK FOR POLITICAL CORRECTNESS FROM CONSTRUCTION WORKERS?!?! OR SHOULD COMPANIES EARNING TAXPAYER CASH SUBMIT TO LOCAL DECORUM DEMANDS?!?
At first I thought this question was silly but as I go on I'm thinking that it works both ways . . .
Would Olathe find BLM construction signage offensive and would they be right to complain???
Then again . . .
The inspection of construction vehicles is a slippery slope that might quickly move to censorship of bumper stickers and truck nuts . . .

Even in this strange political epoch . . .
Adults might have more productive uses for their time . . . Or not . . .
Honestly looking forward to insight from our blog community . . .
You decide . . .
