This is surprising to me. Not really sure why given the state of American cities, but for some reason I figured KC was different.

I’m not trying to downplay KC’s problems, but the biggest difference to me is that KC’s crime problems are largely concentrated in certain low income neighborhoods whereas downtown St. Louis and even its nicer neighborhoods can’t escape the crime problems.

Lock them in wooden stocks in front of the stadium entrance with a large pile of stones to throw.

Let's see if those guns carried by the youts are legal or not before blaming lack of gun control.


I feel like lack of gun control could be argued either way.

I'm willing to hear the argument that gun control would have worked on people that were already willing to procure handguns from illegal means and shoot into a crowd.

If only we had laws against killing people that surely these people would follow, as everyone always follows all laws, like the speed limit…

With the political state of this country and direction of the federal government, there are a lot of folks that can’t see a way to forfeit their right to own guns.

I'm sure Travis Kelce will be speaking out in favour of gum reform very soon.

Why because three (3) or more thugs shot a bunch of people? Having lived in KC, it is a great area.

Agreed, senseless violence and those who did it should have a quick trial, verdict, and lifetime in prison.

Yep. They'll launch an "end gun violence" campaign and have it in the end zones and on the back of the helmets - might as well hire Bob Costas back as the official spokesman so he can stand on his soap box.

None of this will target the actual cultural problem in this country.
