Posts Tagged ‘Mayor Mark Funkouser’

I haven’t really said much about the Kansas City Mayoral and City Council elections. My time is limited and I don’t exactly get real excited about any chance for positive change in Kansas City. I hate to be cynical, but having been a life-long KC resident (minus four years) this city is a joke in many ways. I have often said that if I could sell our house and move out, I would do it in a second. We all know how much the housing market sucks, and there’s no escaping the foolishness soon.

I was going through some old emails and I found this. I totally forgot to post Mr. Funkhouser’s responses to a few questions. For those that may remember, I was once a large fan of the Funk. My passion has severely waned over the years. I am neutral on his reelection at this time.

As you know I have been somewhat friendly toward Kansas City Mayor Funkhouser in the past. But, unfortunately, my support is dwindling to nothing as mentioned in this previous post. My biggest qualm is Mayor Funkhouser’s support of a group called Mayors Against Illegal Guns. You see, it is a group that was started by Mayor Michael Bloomberg with the intention of helping stop violence by focusing on “illegal” firearms. Now, the problem is, I am still unsure just what an illegal firearm is? It’s really called a semantics game, and progressives are great champions of it. Mayor Michael Bloomberg is clearly anti-second amendment and continues to prove it on a regular basis.
