It's your Zoo now East Side, enjoy
Altercation at KC Zoo ‘free day’ leads to arrest - KansasCity.com
I have held off on commenting on this story because honestly it was just too big of a target and there was just too much speculation on what happened. BUT NOW I feel like I can.
Let's see how much is wrong with this whole scenario
1. Free day is suppose to reward tax payers for footing the bill for the Zoo BUT how many people that went actually paid taxes to fund the zoo? I can guarantee that non of the people in the fight did.
2. How does the mayor hope that East Side parents getting more involved in their kids lives would be good for them? By all reports the PARENTS were the main offenders here. The saying that the apple doesn't fall far from the tree applies.
3. The Zoo will now suffer the same fate as Bannister Mall, Indian Springs Mall, Worlds of Fun and yes the Plaza. Attendance will drop, funds will dry up, exhibits will close and blight will set in on the park.
4. Alternatives will sprout up. Deanna Rose is all ready a huge hit in Joco and takes away attendance from the zoo. How long before a "new zoo" gets developed in Joco or West Wyco? I have heard from several people out here that say that they will NOT be back.
5. You knew it was coming. The Zoo is surrounded by a war zone. This shouldn't be a surprise to anyone. Remember all the people getting car jacked on their way back from Starlight????? How long will it be before someone get shot at the freaking zoo? Do they have metal detectors? Sufficient security?
The city has an average zoo at best, is it really worth the time, gas money and entry fee to put yourself at risk? Jocoians everywhere will ask themselves this over the next few months and the results will not be good

Privacy no more
IRS: We can read emails without warrant - The Hill's Hillicon Valley
I really don't even know where to begin with this. We truly live in the worst era for personal freedom and privacy in American history. Why are we looking more China than China?

It is good to see this chick continue to make money off her her sluttiness. Her next show, 25 with Aids should be a real hoot.

I could seriously run the following links everyday for a year and I would be on target 90% of the time. The core of our city has been rotting for so long that there is no way to fix it. Does anyone really think that new sidewalks, fresh coats of paint and a few Apple Markets will rehab this area? Does anyone honestly believe that the community leaders in the East Side want it fixed? They are making a fortune off of tax breaks, government kick backs, low property values and political corruption. Why change it and lose their source of power?
1. Liquor store robbed by Paseo and Cleaver BLVD. Shocking!
2. Home invasion in Grandview. Shocking!
3. East Side toddler found wandering the streets. Shocking!
4. Man murdered in East Side over an argument. Shocking!
5. White girl runaway found in the hood. Shocking!
KC Homeless, Take a bow.
Your creativity, engineering and sense of community have put you on the front page of Drudge.
That's right, you did something that our Mayor couldn't even do!

I am glad that I got all my replacement blades before Homeland Security orders 5 billion blades.

Fitting for a city full of people that act like they have a tree stuck up their ass.

Family's home destroyed after unusual chain reaction led to fire - KCTV5
It isn't uncommon for East Siders to reach Wile E. Coyote status and these folks aren't an exception. "Unusual chain reaction" is PC for dumb f$@%$.
