Following a mass shooting at a Kansas City Super Bowl parade, where 22 people were shot, including 11 children, controversy has arisen over the media and local government's handling of the incident. Kansas City Mayor Quinton Lucas criticized Missouri Governor Mike Parson for referring to the shooters as 'thugs,' a term some believe carries racial undertones. The incident has sparked a wider debate on media bias and the treatment of juvenile offenders in high-profile cases. Critics argue that the media's reluctance to name the shooters, who are reportedly juveniles, contrasts with its treatment of other young individuals in the past, such as Kyle Rittenhouse and Holden Armenta. This discrepancy has led to accusations of a cover-up and claims of racial bias in media reporting and governmental response.

Who Are The Kansas City Parade Shooters, And Why Donโt We Know? https://t.co/RrzJ7YRKQu
If you're a mass shooter at a Kansas City Chiefs parade, the media protects your identity because you're "under 18." If you're a fan in face paint at a Kansas City Chiefs game, the media tries to ruin your life, calling you a racist at 9 years old. https://t.co/zk7r0GDgsi
If you cause a mass shooting at a Kansas City Chiefs parade, the media protects your identity because you're "under 18." If you wear face paint to a Kansas City Chiefs game, the media tries to ruin your life, calling you a racist at 9 years old. https://t.co/9HfWuhrYM1
The corporate media claims they won't name the Kansas City mass shooter thugs because they're "under 18." Holden Armenta was 9 when those same people tried to cancel him a few weeks ago. https://t.co/GrHij7fd5n
The corporate media claims they won't name the Kansas City mass shooter thugs because they're "under 18." Remember when they tried to ruin Nicholas Sandmann's life, naming him everywhere with an out-of-context 30 second video? Or Kyle Rittenhouse?
The Kansas City mayor appears to be on a PR campaign for the suspects who attacked last week's parade. These shooters are getting better treatment in the media than the Covington kid. https://t.co/r0bgYvD9Bl
The Superbowl parade shooters shot a dozen children in the middle of Kansas City and the media doesn't seem even a little bit curious into finding out who they are
Share this far and wide POSOBIEC: Rittenhouse and Holden Armenta but now theyโre protecting the KC Super Bowl parade shooters bc it doesn't fit the narrative https://t.co/6620WkDNB3 https://t.co/6620WkDNB3

The last thing Democrats want is to hurt the KC mass-shooters' feelings... Kansas City mayor accuses governor of racial 'dog whistle' for calling Super Bowl parade shooters 'thugs'https://t.co/rYcKiML7Yd
The Kansas City mayor seems more upset that the mass shooters were referred to as "thugs" than about the people being shot. Priorities in a dem-run hell hole of a city.
This is insane. Kentucky City Mayor Lucas is mad that the governor is calling the parade shooters thugs & thinks the word is racist. https://t.co/wWwixra0to
How do you erase the biggest Superbowl ever off the face of the entire media narrative in less than 24 hours? Have a gang-style shooting at the parade
The Superbowl parade shooters are 'juveniles' and we can't see their mugshots or get called racist - KC Mayor said this But Kyle Rittenhouse, not yet 18, was named everywhere and the media even lied and said he shot 3 black people (he did not) Why is that?
The media says they won't name the Superbowl parade shooters because they are under 18 Don't remember them having that problem with Kyle Rittenhouse
It's not racist to want to know the identity of the Superbowl shooting It's wanting to know how to keep our children safe at a Superbowl parade in America's heartland And the Kansas City mayor wants to cover it all up https://t.co/m8egGrOlEU
BREAKING: MAYOR OF KANSAS CITY SAYS YOU ARE RACIST IF YOU WANT TO SEE THE MUGSHOTS OF THE SUPERBOWL SHOOTERS https://t.co/m8egGrOlEU
.@JackPosobiec on Super Bowl parade shooting: "The media will cover up with their power of omission and story selection bias, the truth of our very world, even if it's a shooting at the Super Bowl because they don't want to admit that black gang violence on the streets of Kansasโฆ https://t.co/mx4Z4s2Fkd
BREAKING: THE KANSAS CITY COVERUP WHERE ARE THE NAMES OF THE SHOOTERS? https://t.co/m8egGrOlEU
Why was the media excited to name 9-year old Holden Armenta but wont name the Superbowl parade shooters?
Today we are going to talk about why they donโt us to talk about the Superbowl parade shooting
Yeah, the news media quickly left this one behind too. DOESN'T-FIT-NARRATIVE. https://t.co/jSNYTzX4Mn https://t.co/nVDiA1NwMf
I don't think a mass shooting story has ever disappeared faster from the media than the Kansas City parade one did...
Kansas City Mayor Quinton Lucas slams Gov Mike Parson for calling minor parade shooters โthugsโ 22 shot, 11 children. These people arenโt capable of leadership
