Country Club Plaza = Bannister Mall part 2?

KANSAS CITY, Mo. - More than 100 teens converged on the Country Club Plaza Saturday night and created a ruckus for patrons and a lot of work for Kansas City police officers.

Read more: http://www.kshb.com/dpp/news/local_n...#ixzz2tczs9I7u

Stories like those about the plaza have been rolling in for the last year or longer. At one point there was a shooting and they have put a curfew in place


I remember years ago bannister mall area was thriving. Hypermart and all the other surrounding stores were very popular and always busy. Crime slowly strangled the area and people chose to go elsewhere. The whole place turned into a ghost town. Obviously Cerner is building there now but the question I pose is simple

There are a lot of options other than the plaza around KC so...

Will the Plaza die the same way the Bannister area did?

Let me rephrase that... I strongly suggest that they do not go at night or stay past 8pm. Unless I 'm with them or their boyfriends are.

I have raised 3 Daughters 24,20,and 17 and they are smarter and more mature than I'll ever be. But sometimes Parenting doesn't just stop at 18

If they took me to see a movie, they were waiting for me when it got out. There was a pizza hut next to the theater here in town that I worked at in high school. On Friday and Saturday nights, we'd have a hoard of them in front of our doors and it blocked customer traffic. This issue isn't exclusive to the plaza. Also, I'd have no problem with them being down there if they were respectful to others. They are blocking traffic, starting fights, and even firing shots. They are being a menace.
Surely, this isn't a serious question.

I moved to KCMO from JOCO a few months ago - I don't think there are many cops doing ticket patrol. I saw at least 3 cars run red lights (not blow through a yellow, I mean be stopped at it and just decide to drive through) within that time.

There was a girl passed out on the sidewalk in Westport at 2am, the cops asked her if she was okay and then kept walking.

Its like thunderdome out here for little stuff like that - a bit of culture shock for me, in JOCO those small things were made to be a huge deal.

I've noticed this as well. I've seen people blow past cops on SW Trafficway, totally oblivious to the fact their was a patrol car to their left. Cops did jack shit.

Cops in Westport really don't give a shit about anything outside of public brawling, and even then I've seen them just break it up and tell people to get out of there.

Ever drive on Metcalf? They'd need to militarize that street to ticket all the red light runners. The police couldn't do anything else.

Parking tickets are no joke, they drive around outside my office building constantly and must give out hundreds of tickets a day.

But I don't think its real cops giving out parking tickets.

There's too much money and power and prestige for the city associated to the Plaza. It will be law and order down there for a while I'm sure.

The thing is, it's not like the "youth" riot every weekend, it just happens occasionally.

But it sounds like they are down there making people feel uncomfortable all the time, and no matter what we think about that, if people feel uncomfortable they won't bring their money down there.

Yeah, they'll get their parking revenue and set up the occasional checkpoint (SW Trafficway). Sometimes a cop will botch an investigation or something and they'll stick him with a radar gun right where you get on SW Trafficway from I35 S where the speed limit goes from 60 to 35 before you realize you're being pulled over. That's rare, though.

I don't think they are there for that. they have community centers. They have consoles to keep them busy. They have 10x more things to keep them occupied than kids in the 90s.

If parents can drive them 20 plus minutes to loiter then their parents must not be doing too bad. School system? I grew up in independence, your parents either made you study or didn't give a shit.

it all goes back to parenting. Nothing more. To try and make it more is silly.

Ohh i agree with that. I am just saying Westport will not help. The city most certainly will.
