Re: GO CHIEFS!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

That's why I've always been skeptical of the "good guys with guns" theory--advanced by some--that the general public should be armed. The exchange of fire could potentially injure even more people. Imagine if after the initial spray of bullets had ended armed amateurs ran after the shooter...

Re: OFFICIAL - KC Star Printing Press

They spent too much money on it. If a new press was needed, they should have just built a big warehouse out on the edges of the Metro near an Interstate highway that was simple and bland. Then when the printing was moved out of town, they could have sold the warehouse to someone needing a warehouse ...

Re: Downtown Baseball Stadium

In an interview on KMBC, a mother who brought her daughter to the celebration said that even though she loved the Chiefs, she wouldn't attend any future celebrations downtown. This crystallized the issue to many watching on TV I'm sure. There were a lot of children who were let out of school today w...

Re: Downtown Baseball Stadium

The shooting event at the Chiefs parade will not bode well for the vote to extend the tax as it pertains to a downtown baseball stadium.
