Not all Olathe Residents are Racist BUT

 

Almost all racial issues that happen in JOCO are carried out by Olathe residents.  So this baseball coach is just the latest example of Olathe being Olathe.

The Star on Soldier Suicide is wayyyyyyyyy off

 Young vets in Missouri die by suicide at exceptionally high rate." "Experts blame guns.

Sure but the guns that are causing the suicides were not fired in Missouri, they were fired AT THEM in COMBAT.  This sickening headline shows just how out of touch "The Star" is with real-life issues.  They would much rather blame everything and anything on guns.  Would this have anything to do with their ongoing narrative about gun violence and their special town hall event they have planned??????  

Using soldier suicides to push copy is just sad, pathetic and should be expected by any/all left leaning publications and thinkers.  As a USMC Vet, I am disgusted.

Snitch on a John - NE KC

 This idea might be the latest but it probably isn't a solution that will work. 
Snitching on a "John" that frequents the NE area's streetwalkers is simply the latest tagline in a nearly 100-year-old battle to fight prostitution in that area.  If you haven't been to NEKC (white folks that is you) then you probably think that this plan might work but the area has been neglected for so long that NOBODY in that hood is about to snitch on people driving through for quick relief.  

Have you driven down Independence avenue at night?  Probably not.  I use to do a lot of charity work with the Don Bosco center and frequented the area often to drop off donations to families and the majority of them will NEVER EVER talk to the police.  Most of them reside in the United States in an unofficial capacity and will not call the police due to either language barriers or fears of deportation.

Further up the road, have you seen the area surrounding Knuckleheads?  It is literally the walking dead there.  I have never seen more dusty white people covered in chemical disfigurements in my life.  You will most definitely get a gun pulled out by some psycho sitting on his front porch.  

The people of NEKCMO have been unfairly neglected, they live in an amazing community and historic part of the city.  Can't we focus on the revitalization of the area instead which will of course force prostitution elsewhere?  

"Just say No", remember that slogan?  Now city's are legalizing weed.  

JOCO SHEEP care little about Justice

 

Just look at the approval ratings for the judges listed above.  There is no way in hell that a poll would ever look like this unless it was filled with corrupt data or a pool of respondents that are apoplectic.  This poll goes against almost every conversation I have had regarding this subject, especially once they do a little digging into the corrupt nature of the people that occupy the JOCO courthouse.  

Many of these people are nothing more than folks that were given their job because of who their parents were.  Several of them are put there simply to appease donors.  Most of them are incompetent.  Yet, JOCO residents simply elect people that were appointed to their job without knowing a single thing about them.  

Example, would you want a family court judge that uses personal favors to move his divorce case into a neighboring county? Would you want this man who had an ugly divorce of his own to oversee your own?  Probably not.  But you keep him in office.  

Overland Park police chief’s not the problem - But there is a HUGE problem

 The calls to remove the OPPD Chief have gotten louder, much louder, but is he
the real issue with the Police Department? How about the city council, mayor, judges, and county commissioners?  Do they get a free pass?  Can you imagine the calls that were made by the elected douches of the county and city once this poor kid was gunned down in his house?  The pressure to make the murder go away and "punish" the officer had to be incredible.  

Cluster fucks like this typically only happen when people are forced to go behind the standards and practices that were created to handle a crisis and resolve it for "good PR".  If the chief were to follow the book, I seriously doubt a killer cop would have received 70k to kill a kid at his house. 

OP is currently undergoing a MAJOR identity crisis due to uncontrolled and poorly planned growth.  The choices and decisions the city has made over the past 10 years are choices typical of greed, power, and lack of knowing one's self.   The problem will not resolve itself until JOCO/OP residents start electing capable people with good character like they used to.

Parks & Rec Gov Kelly admits she is part of clown show

 

How else can you describe her husband dressing up as a clown for their anniversary.  This shit is bad for Kansas where there are serious problems, needing serious people to solve them.  

Asking a question that has been answered - KC STAR

 Once again the KC Star is trying to make the citizens of the metro out to be a bunch of fools.  Why else would they put out an event titled " A discussion of
poverty and gun violence"?

What is there to be discussed?  People that feel as if they have little to no options will resort to nontraditional occupations to survive.  This isn't exactly breaking news.  Inside these nontraditional occupations, violence is almost sure to follow.  Once again, not breaking news.

Then we will hear about how more jobs in communities will cure this problem, it will not.  Those jobs will pay 1/4 of what people can make outside of gentrified jobs and the demand for the products/services that they were offering will remain.  This has been the case since even before prohibition.  So tell me, what does this plan to solve?

Once said by a Ph.D med

"Legalize and I'll advertise

The only way to truly solve this issue is to legalize drugs, gambling, and prostitution.  "legalize and I will advertise" - Keith Murray

Once you knock the bible out of the hands of legislative types that spend all of their time focussing on "sin crimes" instead of schools etc.. THEN you will see change.  Something tells me that The KC Star doesn't have near the juice to get this accomplished.  Not even 50 years ago when the paper had some credibility and power could it accomplish this.  Today's paper doesn't have enough credibility left to influence a single issue (large or small) in the city.

There is little "real news" in KC, it seems.

 For the past 3 months, I have paid for a subscription to the KC STAR so that I could see if there was any change for the better.  What a freaking let down.  

It appears that the only thing that the Star covers are racial.  Almost every story, editorial, and column are now entirely driven by ethnicity.  Can someone please tell me what it was that the paper covered before they were forced to become the Woke paper of record due to their racist past?  

• Today, for example, the cover story is about a coffee shop owner that fights racism by pouring caffeine down the gullets of mostly white folks, for a profit. HOW VERY BRAVE!  There are front-line workers and then there is this woman!  Soldiers returning from a tour in the sandbox don't get a mention by the Star but a business owner that happens to be the trendy minority to cover this month (she is Asian) gets a whole story!  
• The next, MU Social Justice Centers get covered.  
• Decades after Tiger Woods, the Star decides that a large Putt Putt course is worth coverage because the owner is black.  

If you go back through the archives in 2021, nearly everything is racial yet, I have yet to see the Star honestly state its own racial past beyond a bullshit apology.  Bringing in minorities from out of town to cover the city instead of promoting minorities from the city already working for the paper.  I guess if you have a shitty track record of hiring minorities then you have to scramble to ensure that you appear to have changed despite your poor hiring track record.   

The Star is now The Pitch.  

Follow by email is going away

 I received notification today that the "follow by email" feature that blogger has offered since I started doing this is going away.   Judging by the responses I get and how traffic flows to this site, I know that several of you utilize this feature.  Especially since I do not post on a daily basis.  

SO MAKE YOUR FIXES NOW.  Get an RSS reader like FEEDLY and stay up to date.

Symbolism over Substance - KC Streets

I just read that for the 3rd time in almost as many years, KC is set to
name a street after Martin Luther King Jr.  This to me is almost as transparent as the white skin that has kept such a street from being named for nearly 50 years.  Doesn't every metro area in the nation already have a street named after the civil rights pioneer?  Shit, some have 2 streets, 4 schools, and a bridge but not KC.  

So what changed?  Could it be that in a city that has ignored racial issues inside its borders that they decided to right a wrong?  Fuck no.  You see, it is all in an effort to become a WOKE city.  

Sure, the schools, crime, economic conditions, and infrastructure are worst now than they have been in decades (despite investing tens of millions of dollars into these neighborhoods) but at least the street, any street it seems, will finally be renamed.  It is a token gesture made by a token government to provide them with change that will not bring about real change.

Why would they want change when they are getting wealthy off of keeping the problems?  KC leadership at all levels is a complete joke and it has been since I have been a kid.  School Board, City Council, Commissioners, Mayor, Religious leaders etc.. have all gotten wealthy off of the backs of others living in subpar conditions.  

Hell, the only real areas of progress have occurred when those idiots have kept to themselves.  The only thriving areas in the city happened despite the "leadership" and not because of.  

This street name change does have some roots.  Go back to the 1700s and see what the Native Americans gave up for some needs and mirrors.
