We just took photos of the footprints, bigger than your hand, in Callaway County, last week. Prior to that, many years ago, we saw two walking near highway 70 in Warren County.

A friend in excelsior springs had a neighbor that killed a mountain lion that was attacking their goats a few years back. They took a picture and it was a large male

We should not rely on other jails to take care of our problems. We have a responsibility to provide the proper facilities to our superhero police force

That will be an average cost, to every single person of Boone county, of $197 per year, for 20 years. $3920. What a deal.

I would support a 10-year tax for a bond issue to build the new jail, not a new forever sales tax.

The need for a new jail isn’t new. County leaders have known for years it needed attention. Maybe the sheriff should’ve prioritized a jail before a multi-million dollar training facility. His budget priorities is his attempt at railroading the city’s public safety staffing and infrastructure needs.

I'd rather we put more money to schools to prevent there from being so many people in jail in the first place. If we fund our schools and the education system, there would be less people in jail. If we funded mental health services- there would be less people committing crimes

Thinking like this is why the city of Columbia is short 50 police officers.

Agenda narratives always get the right amount of attention one way or another.

We must all do our part and wear masks, only for two weeks, to flatten curve. Also, stand at least 7 feet away from each other at all times (6 feet for COVID was made up with no science so 7 feet is the new distance). Once big pharma has a vax, it will be mandatory to go to grocery store, etc.
