An anti-violence plan championed by Kansas City leaders this week deserves more scrutiny.
Insiders already know the score but the plebs should be clued in about this tragic waste of cash. And so, for those who can translate our bloggy jargon and know how this kind of 12th & Oak hustle works . . . We share insight on the QT and very hush, hush . . . Or at least we're not going to spell it out and the "knowledge" (lulz) is reserved for people who can operate with at least a college sophomore reading level . . . Which, hilariously, is probably the extent of our skill utilizing the language of the oppressor.
A quick look at the players and organizations involved sparked a flashback:
A decade old bill for $15,000 slipped everyone's mind but now it seems that all is forgiven . . .
And so . . .
For anybody who knows about very recent KCMO history . . .
This "plan" is tacitly connected to missing cash, city hall lawsuits, a naked council dude who had to resign after (allegedly) choking his assistant with a belt IN COUNCIL CHAMBERS and a compulsive gambler boxer who sent his washed up dad to help out "rhetorically gifted" activists who were mistakenly throwing around his name.
And if all of this was the plot to a movie, nobody would buy it. HOWEVER, the sordid tale is actually a part of how KCMO spends taxpayer cash on everything else but hiring more cops.
Put simply . . .
We're not just talking about feet of clay for this KC anti-crime effort . . . It's just another no-show job program built on a mountain of bullsh*t.
And again . . .
It's tragically fitting that the new initiative debuted in the aftermath of another local mass shooting wherein politicos didn't really want to answer questions about chaotic gunfire on local streets.
To be fair, we're obligated to share a more optimistic perspective in order to better inform readers.
Check-it:
"KC United for Public Safety just announced a plan to make Kansas City safer. It’s called KC 360 and the five pillars of the plan are prevention, intervention, enforcement support, reentry and reforms and support services.
"The goal of the plan is to reduce gun violence by 50 percent in five years, and have fewer than 100 homicides annually."
