yep – dam shame. - - heard about it on our local news here in Topeka. - - Heard it come across our Police Scanner. - -Thank GOD he has non life threating - shot in leg. - -Sad for the DB.
What are a lot of people thinking - -he went out after he found out he had been drafted got to partying and probably some other guy p- - - - - - cause he wasn’t drafted or just had a dislike. - sad story.
Then I see these remarks about being Topeka - -I just laugh we just Laugh - -get the hell out of here with that crap. - Topeka no different then and other place. - you got bad area’s anywhere you go - -he was not in a good area - But sure the hell not any worse than say KC - - say Wyndotte – or in the many area’s of KC - -every town has hood - that pat is just laughable - come on be fricken Serious. – -ROCK CHALK ALL DAY LONG BABY

@jayballer73 The problem with Topeka is it’s small, but the little thugs wanna be tuff so they over compensate and shoot people over really dumb stuff. KC has rougher neighborhoods, but is bigger. Wichita is much rougher too. Nothing in Kansas compares to the junk in St Louis. I’m not saying it’s New Jersey.
My viewpoint is jaded my my liquor truck driving days in college. There were a handful of shops in KC that you had to guard the truck/booze/money. That was every store in our states capital. In Topeka you had to get cash from over half the liquor stores because they’d rob you too with a bad check too. I also got straight up help up in Topeka while making a delivery and on another occasions kids from Topeka robbed my car in Lawrence…so in my experience this is right on par for freakin’ Topeka and this year in sports.
I’m ready for some positive sports news out of Kansas/ KC area. Lawrence/KU- fbi bs. Topeka/Washburn - shooting. KC Chiefs - domestic violence galore. Manhattan/KSU - beastiality, Wichita/WSU coaches wife is embarrassing. No where looks great these days my friend.

@dylans Where I live here in Topeka - -we have gangs on all 4 sides buy yet not on our street - -yet these are no little thugs.
We have had The Bloods walk 4 abroad down our street showing Colors - - - just to let us know they are here - -we have had bloods driving down ourt street guys hanging out the car window - these guys you don’t look - you don’t respond - -you don’t acknowledge. - -We have had the Crips coming through - -showing Colors - -we have and these are the worst I know I’m not spelling right but we have the Asouttro’s - they don’t play nice - -even more feared in the prisons then Crips OR Bloods - -Then we have the Mexican 4 Corner lesser of them all.
My wife and I have been awaken in the middle of the night when shots were so close we saw the Blue flash of the gun at like 3:00 a.m in the morning - -only to look out and see Cones in our drive blocked off and Officers searching through our yard for shell casings and vehicle across the street full of bullet holes.
About 4 years ago it got so bad in our area we had TPD riding double which they normally don’t do - and coming through like every 5-10 minutes - - got so bad we actually had Homeland Security coming through. - -We have haad the FBI come down our street and end up having TPD - - - Shawnee County Sheriff’s - -KBI - - - lined up our street with the Police command center parked at the end of our drive - -we have had Swat team coming out of Armored Truck with Lock and load in their Assault rifles and shotguns - -So y a not necessarily little time but Kansas like you say hasn’t been good

Dude.
MOVE!
Dude - -not that easy. - When your living on a disability income - your wife is on a limited disability income then that’s not as easy as it sounds. - Pretty limited income and then you have bills on top of that.
Believe me I would love to move - but that’s just not/can’t happen. - -So with that being said we make the best of a situation. - No all days/nights are like that - just encounters I’ve had in my 13 plus years here, and like I said I’m not going to be intimidated- - -if It’s my time to go - - it’s my time to go - -whether it’s here or in Beverly Hills - or if I’m stepping off a curb and get hit. - -When farther says it’s time to come home - - -then you go home.
Sure sounds easy to say move - but you have to be in my situation before you can fully understand what we go through. Again there are nights where my friends including wives girlfriends can sit in the drive and it’s a quiet as a Church House Mouse - there is bad no matter where you go – they have issues in the Ritchy Rich neighborhoods like anywhere else - So I’ll be fine but Thanks for your thoughts and suggestion. - -ROCK CHALK AL DAY LONG BABY

There is an inexpensive neighbor hood right down the street with not a single shooting in the last 50 years that I’m aware of buddy! If you didn’t love it where you’re at you could move. Nothing wrong with being comfortable in your current spot. It just is pretty rough and no one wants to lose another friend! Thus the concern.
