People who shoot girls in Central Columbia will someday likely be on death row, if not stopped by a good Policeman.

Some people are not capable of changing and their predilections affect too many other lives. The world is better off without them.

Life in prison has proved NOT to be a deterrent. Death penalty is.

Romans 13:4, For the one in authority is God’s servant for your good. But if you do wrong, be afraid, for rulers do not bear the sword for no reason. They are God’s servants, agents of wrath to bring punishment on the wrongdoer (Sword refers to the govt’s authority to punish rebels, even by death)

Fred Jones was a kind man. Anyone who would kill him, and the others, in the manner that was done, deserves the full punishment of the law, without exception. Public hanging would be acceptable.

These degenerates that stay on death row for decades using state money for clothing, food, medical care, housing, etc should be put to death within 180 days of sentencing. Save the state millions

instead of funding the death penalty fund for an influx of therapist and psychologists and implement true rehab and make them do daily community work via supervision such as picking up litter or working in sanitation.

As long as we find one false convition in a thousand, we should halt this Barbaric behavior! Set the Example, not the standard of "If you hurt me, I hurt you!" and Don't give me the Bible says "An eye for an eye", that was before the dispossion of Grace given by Jesus Christ. Time to move forward.

Has that worked in the past? NO. Now we have prisons full of 'vacationing' murderers, getting 3 meals a day & cable & internet.

Stupid decisions do cause unfair loss of life. We just lost 13 fine Americans because of a stupid decision. So we must be careful, but with capital punishment there are no repeat offenders.

Your question is way too generic. To a degree that that renders it pointless.

Kehoe is ok, and I mean just ok. Unfortunately, Missouri has now had two weak governors back-to-back.

Is he Tim Waltz level incompetence? No, but with a republican majority, he could do better. Listen to The Eagle every morning and Randy will give you all the details.

He rammed through legislation reversing laws enacted via the ballot box. This LBJ wannabe needs impeached or voted out into obscurity

Allowing gambling on sports, while ACL, relocation and retirement occur in that same instance sounds premeditated. Reversing voter decisions is communist! And, have car dealers started getting their commission on the property tax collections, yet?

Killing the rural public schools. Promoting the St. Louis County private school agenda. Where is the accountability for private schools supported with public money?

Governors tax policies are misguided. Capital Gains and income tax elimination will shift the tax burden to lower and middle income folks. Saying this is to attract new business is a weak argument.

He is screwing over the average Missourian to give himself and other rich people a tax break.

He's continued Missouri's race to the bottom with Texas and Florida when it comes to this culture war bull, his proposition to eliminate income tax is fake populist pandering, in reality it's a rug pull on the poor and a handout for the rich.

His tax plan is a blatant wealth transfer. A sales tax increase disproportionally harms lower income individuals.

Because he hasn't done anything to help people get affordable housing or access to healthcare. He takes money from big companies to build data centers.
