On Thursday’s broadcast of NPR’s “All Things Considered,” Kansas City Mayor Quinton Lucas (D) said that if you don’t have metal detectors, “then how can we ever fully be safe in a city, a state, and, perhaps, a country where we know that people are freely walking around with AR-15s, with modified handguns with switches, with any number of issues, or frankly, even just your old classic revolver?” And “If we know that one can act with impunity with that, then it’s hard to say we’ll ever be fully as safe as I think we’d like to idealize ourselves to be.”

Co-host Juana Summers asked, [relevant exchange begins around 4:30] “Kansas City is a city that loves its celebrations. And I know that there is a big St. Patrick’s Day parade scheduled in your city for next month. Are you, at this point, thinking differently about public celebrations in light of this, the types of precautions that might need to be taken? You pointed out more than 800 officers were on the streets, and yet, this still happened.”

Tell that to the people of Waukesha and the Christmas parade attack. Will we be "safe" without cars and guns when we walk around?? Jag off.

Black behaviors and actions are the problem.

We can’t be safe with a broken judicial system that doesn’t prosecute and punish criminals.

I have absolutely no desire to live in a “safe” society. That sort of desire is where everything starts to go wrong. Give me freedom.

[Lurker]

We can’t keep people safe in prisons.

She’s a moron.
