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]

KC does have a huge problem as you pointed out but something that many people don't realize is the State of Missouri runs\controls KCPD and has for decades or longer. [Reply]

I don't even like being around children. The order of priority should be:
1. Players, coaches, and Veach.
2. People who are quiet in restaurants and on planes.
3. People who are not quiet in restaurants and on planes. [Reply]

Children’s Mercy has confirmed that they are treating 12 patients from the #ChiefsParade rally.
The Chiefs left the parade in busses, and in shock. I'm told players were UNBELIEVABLE calming panicked kids down. Blaine Gabbert, Tre Smith, Austin Reiter, Chris Oladukun all rallied.
Smith went to one upset kid, gave him the WWE title belt and sat with him til he calmed down.
