Public transportation is not available in many areas of our city.

I was an Uber/Lyft driver for 2 years before the pandemic here in KC. It was a lot of fun and provided a meaningful service for people of all income levels. But the lockdown ended my driving, and I think the reduced air travel and reduced large events has reduced the riders.

i think with autonomous cars in the near future, smaller parking lots and structures and community shared vehicles can go a long way to helping with density of living space construction. I think this has to be in conjunction with public transportation and building along main transportion roads.

I was carless for 4 months a couple of years ago. I relied on Uber, rides from friends, and walking to get where I needed to go. I chose my house on a bus line, BUT there were only 2 buses toward downtown in the am and 2 buses back to OP in the pm. Hard to get anywhere in between.

Public transportation in Johnson County means RideKC. While RideKC can get select people to select workplaces that operate on a traditional work schedule. Getting to places to get groceries, prescription drugs, or other house needs, is even more difficult

I WISH I could get around using public transportation. I spent a summer in SF and I miss BART so much. My parents were shocked moving here from Lincoln NE at how nonexistent public transportation is in JoCo. Free + reliable public transport would be so beneficial here

The Metropolitan Council outlines 10 units per acre within a 10 min walk for High Frequency Bus Networks, with a goal of 15-60+ units per acre. KC does not encourage this density and therefore the ridership to support buses. https://metrocouncil.org/Handbook/Files/Resources/Fact-Sheet/LAND-USE/Dens

This is a more sustainable option and I like the freedom public transportation provides. It will require investment

I live by several great bus route locations so public transit works for me to get to work.

Are you happy to see local police taking part in immigration operations?

Of course, isn't locking up people who are criminals their jobs?

This is a matter of law and order. I have no problem with immigrants coming to this country LEGALLY. Immigrants built this country and are a valuable asset but there is a LEGAL process that must be followed. Biden, Majorkas were disasters when it came to illegal immigration.

We might get a bit closer to having fair elections without those voting who aren't even citizens.

Yes, that would be a problem that needs to be addressed ... if it actually existed.

Immigration laws exist for a reason. I can agree our current immigration process is too complicated, expensive, and ripe with corruption. The solution is to change the process, not allow people to stay here illegally.

Illegal is Illegal, no matter the situation. Law enforcement is there for a reason, to enforce the laws. If I was in another country illegally, then law enforcement in that country would do the same thing, but probably jail time first. Without laws and law enforcement there would be anarchy.

This is not a matter of legality. "IlLeGaL" immigration is a misdemeanor, like jaywalking or speeding. That people are being apprehended at immigration court dates, schools, and churches shows that these people are not dangerous nor violent. And finally, detention without due process is kidnapping.

This is not only anti-american, but it is cruel, inhumane and counterproductive. Trump has managed to convince half our Country that 65 million immigrants are both an imminent threat and less than human. Worse, most of the people believing these lies are Christians.

They should focus on protecting the community from the reported crimes and not engaging in the current racial profiling that immigration authorities have been doing.

Police resources should not be used for ICE operations. Congress just voted for an unbelievably huge budget for their police state. Don’t use local community resources!

This is a hard question. ICE isn't explaining anything or identifying themselves. PO's might follow protocol,better. However, they shouldn't have to be involved.To be fair though, I think we spend too much unnecessary time on immigration & nothing else that truly matters.
