I think they need to implement a 10pm curfew for minors and a 1:00am curfew for adults the only way you’re on Columbia streets is if you are at work or traveling to or from work. And the parents of minors caught out after the curfew should have steep penalties up to even jail.
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.
We already pay enough in taxes. The City needs to check it's priorities and pull funding from programs that truly are not conductive to the day to day lives of the general tax paying citizen.
Focus on the core competencies, not liberal dream programs.
A lot of people drive faster than the posted speed limit - 75 to 80 instead of 70. Increasing the speed limit will just push the actual travel rates higher - 80 to 85 instead of 75. With all of the heavy trucks on the road (some that drive slow), higher speeds are just dangerous.

ReplyIf you don't have any form of employment you should be subject to a curfew.
ReplyIf you need to poll this question, then you're clueless.
