2nd Amendment rights are protected in Missouri...The worst mass shootings happen in no-carry zones.

A gun in your trunk won`t offer much protection. If you want to protect yourself conceal/carry is the way to go

Agreed, I hope this is just a step in the right direction

I believe that evil is everywhere. Everyone deserves the right to be protected, even all students. Guns are just tools, it's the person behind the tool that determines how it is used!

Illegal guns are already there. Why shouldn't legal ones be there too?

By no means am I a gun advocate, but I do think having one in your vehicle is ok. Especially in Columbia. That place is fast becoming a toilet full of scum.

I support the 2nd amendment. Also Missouri is a constitutional carry state. It has been proven time and time again that where the law abiding public are allowed to legally carry guns then violent criminal activity is significantly reduced. Criminals say gun control makes it easier to commit crime

I feel college age adults, especially males, are still struggling with their critical thinking skills in relation to their emotions. College students have many stresses, personal and college coursework. Guns do not provide protection, they increase the likely hood of gun violence

Having that easy of access to guns doesn't give people time to calm down before reacting to situations.

My son-in-law works on campus as a teacher. He should not have to worry about whether he comes home to my daughter at the end of a work day. There is absolutely no reason for anyone to bring a gun to a school campus. Period.

Does that include policemen? I know the criminals never have guns. That would be illegal.

Are you referring to the people who shoot up the City of Columbia nearly every night, or the honest people who are legally carrying firearms for protection?

Missouri should enforce strict laws against animal abuse—because any society that calls itself evolved must protect the voiceless. Cruelty tolerated is cruelty normalized, and no state that values progress can afford that.

Yes the voiceless, to include humans as well. Babies need voices as well.

Currently, MO is the country's leader in puppy mills. Punish these horrible monsters who traffic in the misery of poor animals!

Dogs are the most loyal animals and love you unconditionally no matter how they are treated and it is just heartbreaking to see them mistreated or abused!

Missouri has been notorious for puppy mills that sell sick puppies and treat dogs horrible.

Because we need to be advocates for the animals that get taken advantage of. They can’t fight for them for themselves. Some humans are very cruel

Totally agree, look at how we treat our children in the womb as if they are a burden when actually its us who didn't take accountability for our own actions. Humans are selfish and cruel.

I think the more pertinent question would be should dogs and other domesticated animals kept as pets be considered property or have other more humane rights? This has nothing to do with breeding. The dogs were neglected and suffered immensely.

We need more room fulls of people in J.C. working out the details of sports betting, thereby sending exponentially more people into compulsive gambling, and eventually bankruptcy. To hell with protecting the innocent animals.
