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?

"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.
