Warm weather, KC, guns, shootings and killing (update)
Well, here we go? Let's hope not. Four people shot and killed last weekend within 48 hours. Now, today, two more shot and killed in town just this afternoon. We're up to 20 people dead so far this year and forget about Summer not even being here yet--Spring hasn't even begun. It doesn't look good. Here's hoping Mayor James and Police Chief Corwin can get a handle on this, with help from the applicable communities, citizens, churches and community groups. They can't do it alone.

Dear Mr. Kevin: Thanks for posting this!! Yes, the crime problem in KCMO has taken a definite turn for the worse--20 homicides so far in 2012--compared to 13 at this time last year. And 2011 was a bad year crime-wise--KCMO is one of the very few cities in the nation to have had more homicides in 2011 than in 2010. You are right, this is not just a job for the KCPD--the rest of the city needs to get involved. Take care!! Sincerely, Respectfully and In Christ, Ernest Evans
