Yes, in fact, your "leaders" are doing too much. This isn't a gun problem. This isn't a crime problem. It's a money problem. Poor people commit violent crimes. Solve the money problem, solve the, well, everything else.

More money equals more guns.

Because it continues to happen regularly. Too many times they lack suspects or leads. They lack community trust.

They are, however spending too much time luring homeless people to the city.

As we can already tell, the orange shirt campaign is really working this week to curb crime and gun violence. So glad they came up with that idea!

This has become such a regular occurrence that we have started avoiding going shopping in Columbia. Instead driving to Moberly. There seems to be more daytime incidents than ever before. The criminals seem emboldened by the lack of police presence.

We need more police and fewer guns and more politicians who don't fear the NRA.

We already have too many democrats that are trying to crush the second amendment along with the rest of the Bill Of Rights, and the entire Constitution.

We're not the world's police and we executed those people in cold blood. If Venezuela wants to kill its citizens without proof and without a trial, then leave the US out of it.

Venezuela is helping the companies that make Narcan.

What do you think of demolishing part of the White House to build a ballroom?

I think if it were Obama, nothing would be said about it. I think just because it’s President Trump there is the hate that some have for him. Not this much controversy when all the other changes were done by other presidents. None of this is costing taxpayers as it has in the past.

Please provide an example of such an expansive change ... this ballroom is likely to turn out to be larger than the White House itself! I don't doubt we'll see a TRUMP sign on it before it is finished!

Trump is improving the White House, and he is using private funding to do that.

Right ... "private funding" in exchange for pardons and other favors. The more accurate description is BRIBES.

Separation of the rich and poor is getting wider. I was never invited to watch a movie in the movie room just like I'll never be invited to any dances.....I think we'd be better off if they tore down the west wing

It's history, it's respect and honor, the ballroom was never approved and the drawings show it overshadowing the White House itself. Awful
