Any gun that can not be traced should be illegal and there should be no way to get ahold of one.

Of course! Let's put more guns in hands of criminals... especially ones that are untraceable. Duh!

They already are banned, this is a fairly ignorant question. Similar to some of the responses.....

If they were illegal, the BATF would be arresting the people selling these kits, at the gun shows. These Kit guns are legal, and ghost gun is a fabricated term, to make them sound evil. We need crime control, not gun control.

This is why it may come as a surprise to many that it is entirely legal to make and own a homemade gun. Federal law, under The Gun Control Act of 1968 (GCA), requires that persons "engaged in the business" of dealing in firearms must be licensed in order to do so.

60 Missouri Peace Officers Associations wanted to enforce illegal Federal Firearm Laws. More than 540 Missouri Peace Officers Associations disagreed. This is an attempt to override the 2nd Amendment. It's time to punish criminals, not law abiding Americans. Lets get rid of this phony administration.

"Ghost Guns" are already illegal when assembled. I agree, this is a lame attempt at the 2nd.

When you get a drivers license, you should also be administered a CCW and a 9mm.

No, because blue states give "illegal aliens" drivers licenses, without even having to take a test. Then they use the drivers licenses, as proof to vote.

I believe with all my heart that Columbia residents should donate their entire paychecks to the City. If the City had ALL of the money, it would solve ALL of the problems.

They want to raise taxes because the “sales taxes are less than expected”. Could this be due to Columbia’s citizens not shopping downtown, etc. as they do not. Want to deal with addicts, vagrants and panhandlers. Lower revenues are due to administrators poor policies and other choices ie..plan fine

Get rid of the unnecessary positions created the past 3 years! The answer is to reduce the size of government, NOT raise taxes! Columbia's sales tax rate is already too high. Continue letting crime and homelessness flourish, raise taxes, and people will leave the city,

Why not cut the city official salaries by a few thousand dollars each to help make up some of the money that the city is looking for? But I doubt a single city official would be willing to do that even though most of them live better than the rest of the city.

The recorder of deeds salary alone is over $96,000!!!!!!!!!!!! TRULY INSANE. Most of us can never even imagine that amount of money.

If you are alive, there is no such thing as too many taxes. EVEN when you are unalive, you are taxed.
