The city of Columbia and Boone County have a terrible sense of justice. If, the cops don't let them go, the attorneys and judges will. If you look the shooter up on casenet, you will learn that they have pages of arrests and trial records, only to be given probation again and again.
I voted yes because there is shots fired daily. It's also a prosecutor and judge problem. We see people committing crimes that should already be in prison. All judges do is hand out street cred and prosecutors give plea deals.
I am a former resident of Columbia. I now live near Tulsa. Tulsa has set a curfew downtown for minors. It's sad that government has to assume the responsibilities of absent or clueless parents!
They should explore curfews, but I can guess that Columbia will hire outside consultants for $200,000, create a committee to design signage (lbtgq++ approved, of course). Then figure out without real consequences, curfews just scatter the cockroaches to somewhere else in Columbia.
Property tax should only be paid once when the property is transfer/sold. We should not be punished every year for 'things' that do not produce income to pay those taxes.
Taxed on absolutely everything. Once we buy something, we pay our taxes on it. Yet with "personal property " and having to pay this bogus tax every year- is it really ever ours? No! Because government can come take it. They house is already paid off!! Get out!!
