These next things are from articles about the parade day

Wexler: Moving to the parade, the Chiefs have been in the Super Bowl four of the last five years and won three of those games, so I'm sure you had some experience planning for an event like this. Can you tell us what went into your planning?

Chief Graves: I'd actually take it all the way back to 2015, when the Royals won the World Series. We hadn't seen one of our professional teams win a championship for decades. That was the first event like this during my tenure, and I remember responding to that and learning from it.

You learn from each one of these events. In 2020, a car drove through a barricade because the driver was under the influence. We learned from that and further hardened the roadways and other areas.

I saw one estimate that we had over 900,000 people in and around our city, particularly from 6th Street to 23rd Street. This year we had up to 850 officers out on the route. We had 606 from KCPD and over 250 from 34 different agencies who we called into Kansas City to help provide a secure perimeter and a safe parade experience.

She talks about the 2020 incident but doesn't about the in 2023 One person who was armed with a knife was arrested and a second person who "assaulted an officer just outside the parade route," according to a KCPD spokesperson. Also a police officer was shot 2023 after that parade

Where this incident happened it was no police presence in the area at all. I know some of you are asking why does it make a difference Stacey Graves and the Mayor would like the world to believe Kansas City Missouri is a safe place to live that is just not true at all.

This is May we are number 6 on the most dangerous cities list and its only the 5th month. 2023 number 13, 2022 number 9. The powers that be in Kansas City really only care about the big entertainment places and shopping plaza's.
