It a shame some people do not know how to act that's not the word i wanted to use but
i will keep it clean.. Instead of talking your problems out they want to resort to killing and hurt one another there's no value to a humans life any more.

Dear Pitch: Thanks for keeping the city aware of the homicide statistics. Not looking good for either KCK or KCMO: One set of stats tells it all: Around the nation, virtually every city of any size will have significantly fewer homicides in 2009 than in 2007--continuing a national downward trend in homicides that began in 2007 and accelerated in 2008. KCK and KCMO will stand out as having significantly more homicides in 2009 than in 2007--so we had better "brace ourselves" for some stories about "The New Murder Capital of America" in the annual news roundup of the nation's crime situation that appear in January of each new year. Sincerely and Respectfully, Ernest Evans
