At least find something recent and while you are at it, do some research on something in Kansas besides Johnson County.

KCK schools scored lower than KCMO schools last year.

KCMO ACT scores 16.7
KCK ACT scores 16.1

Yet nobody from Kansas ever mentions that they have school problems outside of Blue Valley yet are first to mention that KCMO has the worst schools in the region. The KCK school district is actually larger than the KCMO school district and it's a larger portion of the KS side than the KCMOSD is of the MO side.

I have been doing some research and it's quite interesting stuff that I will post later. Nobody has ever said anything about KCMO school district public schools being good. Nobody. They are terrible public schools or least terribly run (some schools are pretty good for urban schools).

But here is my point that I was making in the Kansas forum. Missouri has plenty of great public schools across the MO side and within the city limits of KCMO.

There are 171,725 enrolled in public schools on the MO side alone (plus thousands more in private schools) ONLY 14K of nearly 200k students on the MO side are in the KCMOSD! The vast majority (more than those enrolled in Johnson County's schools) are enrolled in very high quality school districts that rival anything in JoCo and the best and largest private schools are located in KCMO as well.

So my point again is not that any side is better. It's that you and others need to find some other way to slam the MO side because saying that MO side schools are poor or un-credited is not only misleading, it's often flat out false in the way its worded in most posts by Kansans.

Oh and even the KCMOSD has some good things about it, so even that entire district is not a disaster...

More like a worthless violent thug.

Lets hope this rotten piece of trash gets exactly what he deserves - a heavy dose of lethal injection. Or at the very least he needs to slowly rot away in a non-air-conditioned prison cell for the rest of his miserable life.

Kansas doesn't execute thugs. The Kansas Supreme Court refuses to authorize an execution. They are much too European for that.

He'll likely get life without parole, be entertained by the inevitable groupies, and be waited on hand-and-foot by prison staff lest some 'right' that you won't find in the text of the US or KS constitutions, be infringed.

Death penalty in Kansas: Will the state ever execute another prisoner? / LJWorld.com

Kansas' death row / LJWorld.com
Thanks for the insight, and it's too bad the state of Kansas seems to coddle these violent thugs. It does look however like the murder rate in Kansas' has dropped significantly over the past twenty years.

In Texas, they usually fastrack these parasites directly to the execution chamber. Texas is a big state....for executions - 531 executions since 1976, and Missouri has executed 86 violent criminals over the past 40 years, with six of these thugs already taking a permanent dirt nap this year.

"Mike A Jones' father, Jerome Jones of Baltimore, says his son Michael would never hurt a child." Evidently Jones Sr doesn't know his son as well as he might think. Jones killed his own child and fed him to swine, this person is a special kind of evil and hopefully this violent pig gets shown the same hospitality in prison that he showed his innocent son.

Sounds like maybe you don't understand how the Kansas Supreme Court works. Or KU's law department. Or Europe.
