Alleged Kansas City Chiefs parade shooter Lyndell Mays told cops he was ‘just being stupid’: court docs

One of the alleged shooters who opened fire at the Kansas City Chiefs victory parade told investigators he was “just being stupid” when he “advanced” on another group of individuals he had been arguing with before the deadly melee.

Court documents obtained Tuesday provided more details on how a Super Bowl celebration quickly devolved into chaos and an exchange of gunfire that led to murder charges against Dominic Miller, 18, and 23-year-old Lyndell Mays.

Both men, armed with guns, got into an argument before the shooting unfolded among thousands of revelers, prosecutors alleged Tuesday. A female friend of Mays told police the opposing group of several individuals wanted to know why Mays was looking at them, court papers said.

Mays, who was at the parade with two friends, started jawing with the group, according to a probable cause statement obtained by The Post. Mays was seen on surveillance footage approaching the group in an “aggressive” manner and later pointing his finger at them, the court docs said.

When Mays pulled his gun, he started to chase an unknown individual who appeared unarmed and shot at him, resulting in others drawing their guns, according to the legal papers.

Mays allegedly admitted to police that he pulled his gun first and began shooting first — even though he was in a crowded area that had throngs of kids, the court docs said. He allegedly said he pulled a gun because he believed the female friend in his group was going to be shot.

“May confirmed that he drew his gun first … and started shooting, all because they said, ‘I’m going to get you,’ and to him, that meant, ‘I’m going to kill you,’” the docs stated.

“Mays stated the other individuals started shooting only after [he] shot first.”

Easy bet is that he was high on weed. Most of these criminal knuckleheads are. So he gets 20 years or so and we get to pay for his 3x hot meals, cable TV and use of exercise equipment. A warm place to sleep too.

Low IQ plus poor impulse control plus a screwed up culture that glorifies thug behavior on full display.

This is why we can’t have nice things. Sons of Obeyme running amok.

The Bell Curve is real. A Storm is coming.

So, the ‘school children’ who needed to have their identities withheld because they were underaged, were actually adult male blacks. It’s obvious that their identities were withheld because they were black, and didn’t match the desired narrative, not because they were children.

It’s not 13%.

It’s males. So cut it down to 6.5%.

It’s males under 35. So cut it down to 3.25%.

It’s males 14-35. So cut it down to 2%.

2% committing half the murders in this country.

A public hanging would mot cure his stupidity but it might cure a lot of other people’s potential for: “just being stupid.”

Ann Coulter was right, not that it took a genius to figure it out.

If nothing else, one has to admire her utter lack of political correctness.

So, 2 gang bangers, aged 18 & 22 are the reason 330 million other Americans have to give up their gun rights.

I thought authorities said juveniles. In fact I know they said juveniles.

No argument here, but that does not excuse him.

This must be the guy who got shot in the jaw. He has a gofundme set up by a relative.
