THE WIRE - KILL OR BE KILLED
With murder and violent crime (reported and not reported) is at an all time high I still haven't heard a single person step up and offer a plan. Why is that? I don't think anyone cares to be honest with you. Are the powers that be j...
THE WIRE - ARE CHALK OUTLINES WATER PROOF?
KCK shows that it is still a crap hole despite what you hear about economic growth in the western part of the city. 1. Gang banger named Puppet(not the dude in American Me) arrested for double shooting in KCK. 2. A dollar sto...
THE WIRE - "KCMO IS FULL OF CULTURE & EXCITEMENT"
Some jack ass actually said that to me this week. He then went on to tell me that crime in the city only exists in the East Side and he doesn't think it has an effect on the rest of the city. I asked him where he lived and he said Brooksi...
THE WIRE - LIVING IN HELL
You just knew that this weekend was going to be crazy because of the nice weather BUT THIS? HOLY CRAP. 9 people shot in 3 days, a school that can't control its students, kidnappings, robberies and a shoot out with cops? You can buil...
THE WIRE - NO PROGRESS
I have been tracking crime in this town for 2 years now and I can safely say that the leadership in this town is clueless on crime fighting. Nothing is getting better. In most cases, parts of the city are getting worst. Where is the...
THE WIRE - STAY CLASSY KANSAS CITY
Whenever I travel I always make it a point to pick up a local newspaper and catch the evening news. I do this so that I can get a feel for the community and the people that live there. Could you imagine coming in from out of town and doin...
THE WIRE - KCMO IS ITS OWN HORROR STORY
The seriel killers in KCMO run the streets every night. They don't hide behind hockey masks or only appear in your dreams. No these killers want you to know who is killing you and they kill you when you are asleep or awake. ...
THE WIRE - GET A GUN
If you live in KCMO and you aren't a gun owner you are insane. Hell one gun might not be enough. You might want to consider putting a machine gun turret on your front porch. 1. I always thought a "candy store" in the East Side was...
THE WIRE - YOU PLAYED YOURSELF
There are certain crap levels that one must consider when determining if a crime in KC is unjust. What do I mean by unjust? It is actually pretty simple. Any crime that happens against someone that willingly puts themselves in a sit...
NIGHTMARE IN THE EAST SIDE
Sure the west bottoms has the haunted houses but the real horror stories are taking place in the East Side. Instead of machetes, chainsaws and knives for fingers the east side uses double barrels, glocs and knives. 1. KCMO ...
THE WIRE - EVERYONE LOVES A GOOD LOCK DOWN
View Larger Map The sign in front of the locked down school pretty much says it all. KCK kids were in danger as gang violence rolls through the streets in the middle of the afternoon. ...
THE WIRE - JUST IGNORE IT
Here are more crimes that happened to people that didn't win a golden ticket to join Scott Parks in Wonka Land. 1. The murder of this East Side woman wasn't important enough to be headline news on most local news sites. 2. ...
THE WIRE - SCOTT PARKS EDITION
Today one of the most ignorant people to take to the KC airwaves said that the crime coverage in this city did not represent the Kansas City he knows. I guess S.cott thinks that the people in East KCMO don't count and that the crime that goes i...
THE WIRE - ONCE A TIME IN THE PROJECTS YO..............
Gang Bangers don't die, they multiply........or at least that is what they seem to do. You would think that sooner or later there would be 1 lone gang banger left, you know kinda like king of the mountain. It makes you wonder how many residents in...
THE WIRE - JACKING A KIA?
Over the last 3 years I have come to realize that not only are the city's criminals a bunch of dumb ass's, they are a special kind of dumb ass. From crappy aim at drive by shootings, police chases that last 30 secs, robbing of dollar stores and...
THE WIRE - WEEKEND KETCHUP
You have to love the consistency of the East Side. You can almost count on that part of town producing one dead body every 3 days and on the weekends the All Stars come out to play. 1. Maybe the smell coming out of Columbia isn't ...
THE WIRE - WEEKEND KETCHUP
Death, destruction and Mayhem. Those are the 3 constant ingredients in a Kansas City weekend. 1. Since JOCO banks are probably the only ones with money in them in the metro this robbery attempt in Lenexa shouldn't be a...
THE WIRE - DO YOU BELIEVE IN MIRACLES?
I am starting to believe that our gang bangers could actually break the murder record. I wonder if the chamber of commerce will mention that in their write up of the city. "Come to Kansas City, we are broke, spread out, our teams suck, our mayo...
THE WIRE - HOLIDAY KETCHUP
In the Marine Corp we use to have a cadence that said "blood makes the grass green". Well east side lawns should be incredible green. On Friday I set the over/under at 5.5 on shooting and stabbings. In this city always take the over.1. KCMO cops ...
