I ran across this article linked by Tony's Kansas City, WYCO D.A. Gorman is on a crusade to clean up KCK. Seems it is time to rid the area of the pervasive flood of porn and drug paraphernalia. Gorman said this "We’re not looking at removing Playboy and Penthouse or to get every movie out of there,” he said. “There are those (materials) that go beyond what is shocking to the conscience. Films depicting violence or torture, bestiality, incest.”
Okay , give me a break. Mind you I don't spend much time lurking around the magazine racks at the local Quick Gulp, but I feel relatively safe in saying that the epic animal porn saga "Mr. Ed Gets Head", ain't on the rack. Is that a carrot in your pocket or are you just glad to see me ,Wilbur? I also feel confident that the latest issue of Barely Legal is comprised of 30 year old chicks in pigtails and not 12 year olds. I promise to look into this issue as soon as I figure out a way to get around that pesky shrink wrap on the latest copy.
And don't even get me started on the drug paraphernalia crusade. Yes there are places on both sides of the state line where you can purchase an " incense burner" or a "tobacco water pipe" with a thrifty one hit bowl, but are these things really whats wrong with certain areas of WYCO?
As for crack pipes , anyone living in the city knows that crack heads don't waste money on pipes. If you owned an old car with the hollow antenna, in the last 20 years, and came out one morning to find said antenna gone, you might have a crack head in the area. The truth is a crack head would boof through a dried dog turd if that was all that was available.
So rather than focus on the real issues in WYCO and KCK, such as the fact that it is a major hub for heroin and cocaine. Instead of concentrating on the prevalent Gang violence that claims the life of more young kids every year than we can count. Let's ignore the on going cancerous urban decay and blight in the poor areas of town. Because, that shit just ain't SEXY.
The problem in KCK isnt the mom and pop purveyors of roach clips, bootleg porn DVD's and pot leaf bumper stickers, guaranteed to get you pulled over. The problem is lazy , apathetic politicians who pander to the puritanical contributors to their coffers, rather than addressing the real problems.
Special thanks to TKC for giving me something to get righteously indignant about. Now if you will all excuse me, there's a bowl of Fruity Pebbles with my name on them, and a pinch of tobacco in my incense burner is calling my name.
I burn incense in my bedroom for tantric purposes. I also do a lot of other things in my room for tantric purposes...but we won't talk about that.
ReplyDeleteI agree...politicians spend too much time persecuting harmless stuff (mainstream porn, pot, and adult Halloween costumes) and not nearly enough effort combating the stuff that matters...crime, poverty, American Idol.
On a more amusing note, we have a frequent flyer crackhead patient with a tracheostomy. They had to replace the trach with a metal one because the patient kept melting the plastic ones. They smoked crack through their tracheostomy. Classy!!
a built in crack pipe. Truth really is stranger than fiction.
ReplyDeleteMy life would be sad and boring without those shops! Damnit. Let alone I would have to give up on lesbianism. =) Time for bed. lol
