It’s become very unsafe; Columbia use to be on the most desirable places to live in the country… based partly on how safe it was; now it’s become unsafe!

It scares me to go there. I only go to Columbia, when it can not be avoided. I'm old and can't defend myself like a young man. I served my country for eleven years when I was younger. I would have done 20 but I chose a job that paid 3 times what my E-6 military pay was. Thanks to President Carter

Yet you have no problem with allowing taxpayer-funded state employees who are graduates of UM, collecting taxpayer funded pensions so they can “spend their retirement at UM ball games”?! You need to join our movement to start filing complaints against these kinds of people

Carter drove many good soldiers away, I'm glad that I was one of them.

It isn't 'gun violence'. I've got a dozen guns that aren't hurting anybody. They're not going to steal my car, drive to Columbia and shoot up the town. Columbia has gone to hell- crimes perpetrated by people already prohibited from possessing guns. No way I'd send a kid to MU.

Do you approve of state employees being able to retire, draw a lifetime pension of thousands of dollars each month so they can spend their retirement “going to MU sports” like one local MoDOT engineer in my town has publicly stated? I can give name & title if anyone wants to file a complaint.

Columbia has ALWAYS been communist. Why would government funded poverty and crime be a surprise?

So what are you going to do about it? Just sit there and condone it instead of taking action against state employees who publicly go on record saying they are going to take their taxpayer funded pensions and move there to “watch MU sports for retirement”? Want some names/numbers and file complaints?

The leadership of this town is what scares me. Or lack of it .

Not only do I not like this map, I don't like the way they split Boone County in half last time either. Kehoe is wrong. Nothing this legislature does represents me and my values.

Don’t like politicians pushing the constitution aside to further their Trump led political agenda!

This seems like a political form of "bike shedding". Instead of focusing on important conservative legislation, lets move around lines on a map and pretend it makes some kind of improvement in Missourian's lives.

Well my uneducated self who is debt free, doesn't live outside my means, retired before 50 will be just fine regardless what happens. No you educated, debt ridden, living off the government's charity..... well you yourself are to blame. Be accountable for your life and actions.

When the debt finally becomes unsustainable ... which isn't that far off ... the solution historically is to monetize the debt, leading to hyperinflation. Read up on it ... you will not be immune.

For workers it is sound. For those on welfare it could be a problem. Things are about to change.

The "dollar" is not real. The economy is the labor the people provide.
