Stop calling KC gunmen "thugs" says furious mayor

The mayor of Kansas City is furious after the Missouri governor called the gunmen who opened fire at the Super Bowl celebration thugs.

Missouri Gov. Mike Parson told a radio station, “We can’t let some thugs just take over and ruin what happened.”

One person was killed and 22 were injured when two juveniles opened fire on the crowd. To date, the suspects have not been identified. So, technically, they are murderous thugs.

I have been here a long time. I know how FREEPERS, attached the moniker, it’s still wrong, extremely misleading and stupid.

Nearly everyone knows that the Amish are known for being extremely peaceful. Calling people from a violent culture the "Amish" is what is known as "irony". This is not "wrong, extremely misleading and stupid". Not recognizing "irony" when it is used... makes the clueless person seem feebleminded.

It’s just a way to change the conversation so nobody holds him accountable for his policies that produce these results. The Soros supported DA has been letting violent criminals off the hook for years.

In the restaurant business we call them “Canadians”.

I thought that was code for people who crossed the other border (also known as undocumented democrats).

I mean, think about what kind of moron this guy has to be to concern himself with definitions, when a culture-less, un-civilized pack of savages “do what they do” and disrupt an otherwise “mostly peaceful” event!

The Thugees were Hindu highwaymen, and disciples of the goddess Kali. They were known for killing their victims without shedding blood.

In a nod to tradition, I suggest we just hang these bastids.

Or principled and not a foolish person. Go ahead and show your ignorance and immaturity by slandering the Amish.

thug
thŭg
noun
A cutthroat or ruffian; a hoodlum.
One of a group of professional criminals, devotees of Kali, who robbed and murdered travelers in northern India until the mid-1800s.

.....

No where in the definition does it say color. Says northern dot Indians was where the term originated.

Leftist looking to whine about race.

I have never called any violent person or group “the Amish” in this forum. I was merely to explain to you the concept of irony. I tried to do this with humor so that it would not seem like I was scolding you. Irony is what others have been using when they call violent people “the Amish”.

Apparently, this has gone over your head; I am sincerely sorry that I have inadvertently caused you so much distress. I know that a Christian such as yourself would not lash out with name calling and insults unless he was feeling very bad.

I loved that old term, “hornswoggled,”.

“Mel Brooks made a movie called ‘Black Bart” that’ tells what happens in a Western town of the 1870’s when a black man suddenly becomes sheriff,. Not a ‘black’ movie but more of a juxtaposition of hypocrisy, greed, flat‐out fun and clichés that I’ve been watching since I was 3 years old,” says Brooks. “The white characters will keep saying, ‘I’ll be hornswoggled’ and ‘They went thataway,’ and the sheriff will answer ‘Right on, man!’”

Funny movie, maybe AMZ still has it;
