KC tensions rising in advance of Donald Trump visit
The Kansas City Star ^ | 03/11/2016 | STEVE KRASKE

Tensions in Kansas City already were on the rise Friday night in advance of Donald Trump’s scheduled Saturday evening stop here.

Just hours after Trump canceled his Friday rally in Chicago over security concerns, anti-Trump forces were organizing on social media and planning to stage what they hope is a massive protest inside and outside the downtown Midland Theater where the GOP presidential candidate is to speak.

A Facebook page labeled “Trump Out of KC!” sprang up to organize protestors. Others on Twitter using #ShutItDown indicated they were emboldened by their success in contributing to the cancellation of the Chicago event.

He probably asked for the Sprint Center first. LOL Bill Self said “no.” We own the Sprint Center just like we own Allen Field House. Go Hawks.

#ShutItDown is a black lives matter movement. The Chicago branch of this terrorist organization planned, organized, and executed the chaos, along with LaRaza, and Moveon.org on social media. They are the instigators.

The Chicago police citywide channel, as live on broadcastify last night, had police units requesting assistance on the third floor of a nearby parking garage where anti Trump street thugs were smashing cars and breaking windshields with hammers and bats. Police also asked for help breaking up fights on the street in front of the garage. Of course, this criminal conduct is Trump’s fault.

Negative, My Nieces First Birthday is today!

It's raining here, but that won't stop the Ice Cream! :D

Also, it is going to be PACKED!!!

Besides, I haven't had good luck at The Midlands lately, LOL, Last Week at the Midlands when I was with my Friend we almost got into an Altercation because of people be so Drunk they could hardly stand.

Strangely it tied into this sorta too, My Friend is from Colombia and.....some less than nice things where said, not to her, but shouted at the stage when the Hispanic Guitarist was introduced.

They sorta upset my Friend, cooler heads prevailed, but she was ready to bring it! LOL

I think our luck ran out dealing with that place. So I am going to pass. ;)

Life is just so Ironic.....

Born and raised there.

I take back what I said.

Some of the old theaters have tunnels.

More than just the theatres.

I don’t think the Midland is one of them.

And let's leave it at that.

The justice we get is based on what we tolerate.

That is why so many want us to be ‘tolerant’. That way they can avoid justice.

After the plan to rush Trump on stage in Chicago was revealed and the event cancelled, then today’s attempt to reach the stage I’d look for USSS to be ready to kick some asses.

I think the plan is to kill Trump.
