A circus parade and rally for nonviolence that drew hundreds of people to the Linwood Shopping Center on Tuesday evening had to be cut short when multiple fights broke out.

Kansas City Police Chief Darryl Forté said the organizers stopped the event. He tweeted that the crowds dispersed and there were no reported injuries.

But the fighting marred an event, called “Your Life Counts,” that was intended to celebrate survival in a city plagued by crime.

Performers and animals from the UniverSoul Circus paraded north on Prospect Avenue from 39th Street to the rally.

Performers in bright costumes walked on stilts through the crowd as Caribbean dancers invited young people from the audience onto the stage to do the limbo.

“Don’t tell me something good can’t happen on Prospect,” Brooks said before the fights broke out.

It sucks to suck!

Uh, the picture shows an era when the guys protesting had extremely legitimate complaints.

Please don’t conflate those honorable men with the feral ‘rats who screwed up this other effort. At the time of the pic, blacks had a comparable percentage of bastards to whites. Big Daddy Goobermint had not yet emasculated black fathers by paying the lowest IQ “women” to stay unmarried and squirt out more unwanted kids to grow up quasi-human.
