No Consequences For Kansas City Chiefs' Frank Clark After Gun Plea???

One of the best defensive players in the NFL has earned the quiet support of the Chiefs' front office AND local media. 

NOTICE SILENCE ABOUT FRANK CLARK'S GUN DEAL AND THE DEARTH OF ANY DISCIPLINARY ACTION FROM THE TEAM DESPITE SO MANY ANTI-GUN ADVOCATES IN KANSAS CITY POLITICS!!!

More to the point . . . 

MAYOR Q REGULARLY WEIGHS IN ON GUN CRIME ACROSS THE NATION BUT HE HASN'T OFFERED A PEEP ABOUT THIS WRIST SLAP GUN CHARGE ON A HOMETOWN FAVORITE!!!

Don't worry, there aren't any wordy editorials forthcoming . . . Except maybe to exonerate the baller. 

Accordingly . . .

Our political leaders prove impotent to offer even a tweet or insight into this gun plea deal despite the local connection to a high profile star and their longstanding commitment against firearms.

Even ESPN merely offers a terse report that mostly focuses on the implication that the team will politely ignore the court decision. 

Meanwhile, the plebs might look closely and notice that anti-gun talk from so many progressive leaders is mostly for show or doesn't apply to anybody with more leverage, political capital or connections.

To be fair, there are many locals who don't believe Mr. Clark did anything wrong and their pro-gun opinions have actually proved insightful . . . At least they spoke up.

Meanwhile . . . 

The silence of local anti-gun advocates is deafening. 

Check-it . . .

Coach Andy Reid said Clark would play against the Cardinals "unless there's a setback.''

Clark pleaded no contest in Los Angeles on Thursday to two counts of misdemeanor possession of an assault weapon stemming from a pair of 2021 incidents. He was sentenced to one year of probation and 40 hours of community service.
