CITY OF LITTLE ROCK'S SELF-PROCLAIMED RESOLUTION THAT IT IS AN INTERNATIONAL COMPASSION CITY IS PURE HORSE HOCKEY

 
THE HOMELESS DON'T HAVE TO GO HOME, BUT THEY CAN'T CAMP HERE IN LITTLE ROCK


In August 2017, when Little Rock city leadership and the Little Rock Police Department were waging an all-out offensive against the homeless in the city and the organizations that help them, the Little Rock Board of directors passed a resolution proclaiming that Little Rock was an International City of Compassion.



This was poorly timed as a tourist in Arkansas from Italy had been murdered in Little Rock the previous month in the midst of one of the most violent years in the city's history and the offensive against the homeless was accelerating.

City leadership a few months earlier had tried to ban feeding the homeless by local church groups in public places. That proposed ordinance was tabled after a huge outcry by angry frustrated citizens.




Crusty City Director Dean Kumpuris made possible the most uncompassionate remark a city director has ever made.  The hateful old fart stated that "it was a mistake to think that just giving some people some food accomplished anything".  


After all, Dr. Kumpuris is a gastroenterologist and we are sure that he goes without meals quite often.

We challenge Kumpuris to live out in the rough for just a few days, and walking in the shoes of the city's homeless and  leaving his cash and credit cards at his hovel overlooking the Arkansas River and the Big Dam Bridge. We suspect that his opinion about eating some handout food will change.




We wonder how many times he has volunteered to feed homeless and look into their faces and see what difference "some food" makes. 

We doubt Dr. Kumpuris would have the balls to utter to the homeless what he did before the board. If he did, we suspect that "physician, heal thyself" would have a special meaning for him.

Fired Dover City Marshal Nathan Jones Accused of Exploiting Dying Man to Take Control of His Estate

  A video of a part-time Dover, AR city marshal threatening a local business that went viral on social media, resulted in his termination of employment on October 1st.   Here's the video. Apparently Jones was the subject of rumors in the town. Rumors about meth pipes and the 479 Smoke Shop.   According to records obtained from the Arkansas Commission on Law Enforcement Standards & Training ("CLEST"), Jones previously worked part-time for the Dover Marshal's Office from October 26, 2007 through January 2, 2009.   Jones was also elected in 2023 as the Martin Township Constable and held that position under he lost to Ricky "Perch" Parks in 2025.   Don't worry about Jones losing his part-time job. As his campaign literature detailed, he owns a couple of businesses in area. During our investigation of Jones for this story, we found that he had been accused of exploiting Daniel L. Koester, 64 years old, who had cancer and had been in hospice after sufferin...

ASP Trooper Michael Austin Kennedy exposed as a racist in text messages to estranged wife.

Thanks to a tipster, we were able to obtain public records that expose Arkansas State Police Trooper Michael Austin Kennedy as a racist. Records filed in the divorce proceedings Kennedy's wife has filed give shocking information what Trooper Kennedy thinks about People of Color. In amended filings, Trooper Kennedy's estranged wife states that he is a white supremacist and fears for the safety of their children. And it's no surprise that Trooper Kennedy is a registered Republican. Have the racist views expressed by Trooper Kennedy influenced his actions as a law enforcement officer?  Has Trooper Kennedy PIT maneuvered People of Color to try and kill them to rid his racist white Christian world of folks he considers inferior?  The ASP administration thinks Trooper Kennedy is roll model for their agency. As we often say, the klan ALWAYS outs themselves. Kennedy was with the Bryant Police Department before joining the ASP in 2021. We sent the court filing to the ASP and asked f...
