Chiefs Shooting at the parade - Page 39

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.

Where was Ray Lewis at the time of the shooting?

Don't value you're own life let alone the community B.Arent even legally old enough to own a weapon anyway

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.

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.

The kid thing hits your a little harder when you have kids of your own. Not trying to be rude, it's just the truth

You can kill everyone who so much as shoplifts but if you don't try and prevent people from becoming thieves you'll only succeed in killing people.

Have we actually tried the killing idea, though? I would hate to reject that idea without testing it.

Children’s Mercy has confirmed that they are treating 12 patients from the #ChiefsParade rally.

11 are children, 9 have gunshot wounds.

I think the reports were that no kids were shot, but some might have been hurt in the panic afterward.

Crushes are no joke.

Probably even does his chicken dance down the aisle.

Nice…

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.

So according to him there are 17 people who were shot and 9 of them were kids. That's more than what has been put out by everyone else.
