Just like #ChiefsKingdom has always been there for me and my family, we want to be there for them.❤️
The @Chiefs have launched #KCStrong, an emergency response fund supporting victims and their families, violence prevention and mental health services, and first responders.… pic.twitter.com/sYMnPgCWL0
Friendly mod reminder, this thread is about yesterday's shooting. Not about gun control, gun laws, politics, or anything of that nature. If you need everyone to know what's wrong in this world and how you'd fix it, grab your megaphone and soapbox and take it to DC, thanks. [Reply]

Instead let take guns away from those who want to protect themselves against these brainrot fuckers who put our families lives in danger anytime we're near the city.
never going downtown or to kc again. I've already survived one of these attacks when I
was shot at 7 times heading out to my car for work. Fuckers were caught 20 minutes later and out of custody the next day.
fuck the world we live in.
Same reason I live in the burbs....MPLS can get fucked. [Reply]

I think recent events throughout the country have lent some credence to the validity of general deterrence as a valuable element in any overall law enforcement model. As things have become decriminalized, we've seen rises in instances of same (as well as the brazenness of those instances).
That said, when it comes to gang-related shootings, I'm not sure general deterrence does much. [Reply]
Whatever this was I don’t believe it was something planned. If that suspect intended to be there and stake out for something would have been dressed in Chiefs stuff. Unless for some reason as a gang member he was obligated to be in uniform.
I’m going with the crime of opportunity from a group seeing some rival group in public and confronting them or calling in backup to do the dirty work. [Reply]
KC 8th highest homicide rate shouldn’t be a surprise, unfortunately. Hope everyone is okay. And to the person who mentioned previously about it being a sad mark on KC - yep, spot on. [Reply]
