An inner city maze that most residents don't visit will have to suffice for Kansas City MLK tribute after a years-long debate has finally been settled.
Sadly, the attempt to sell this as a victory only works on people getting a regular check from the government.
In fact . . .
THERE'S ABSOLUTELY NOTHING REMOTELY "ICONIC" ABOUT KANSAS CITY'S UPCOMING MLK INTERSECTION!!!
Nevertheless . . .
The swath of land is good enough to put this useless name game controversy behind Kansas City with the knowledge that tribute to a civil rights leader mostly served to incite bitter disputes and petty political gamesmanship.
