Once again, Kansas City just can't get it right. I don't know all the details about the "flash mobbing" that took place over the weekend at the Country Club Plaza because I try not to watch the "bad" news. But from what I've heard from others, it wasn't a good thing.
Here's the news flash for people/kids of KC: "flash mobbing", "flash freezing" and any other organized large gathering in a public area which, by the way, has been done all over the world, has typically been an event--a source of entertainment for others. What appears to be apparent spontaneous dancing, or instant freezing in mid activity. Not terrorizing the community. You can go to YouTube and entertain yourself for hours watching the videos of young (and old) all over the world participating in "flash" activities for the enjoyment of others.
I'd love to be strolling on the Plaza some evening and be pleasantly surprised by a large group of young people who have dedicated some of their free time to choreograph a dance routine to some awesome music. Wouldn't that be fun? But no--we get thugs, hoodlums, angry young people that just want to make others as miserable as they must be. How sad....
Hey, are there any adults out there that would be willing to get together and "flash dance" on the Plaza one of these beautiful spring weekends? Let me know--I think it would fun. ; )
