New Sprint Center in KC

This is what's happening because a member of a governmental committee in KCMO is also a member of Minute Men. It's all political bull sh!t. I'm all for f**k 'em and let the chips fall where they may. So she opposes "illegal immigration"? So the hell what! Don't we all? Illegal is illegal.

"We are standing on principle," said the Rev. Nelson "Fuzzy" Thompson, head of the local SCLC chapter which recommended the national convention be moved out of the city. "He is mayor of the whole city. ... We hope this will send a message clearly to the mayor that we want to see real diversity and inclusiveness."

Translation: We want to see a black man/woman in that position pronto or we're going to start playing the race card.

Yeap - the real thing that P'd me off was this:

The group says Mayor Mark Funkhouser showed racial insensitivity in June when he appointed to the park board someone who is a member of an organization that opposes illegal immigration.

It incenses me that we have to try to be politically correct so as not to offend those people who are here illegally. Holy crap!

He said his group likely would hold its convention in New Orleans instead.
Swell. Go to “Chocolate City” where the black mayor has openly insulted whites and New Yorkers.

I’ve got my own idea where the nickname “Fuzzy” comes from.

It’s really dumb to state that you are offended because someone opposes an illegal activity. KC will maintain a higher IQ level without that bunch in town.

Seems to me that The Southern Christian Leadership

are as radical as the Islamofacists. (shudder)

Trust me I live in heart of it.
