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?

Amen, to that Eric. I know exactly how you feel, and what you are saying. A liberal's interpretation of Proverbs 22:9. Your satire is exquisite.

Never had a big budget for holidays or birthdays. We have too much stuff already so we concentrate on time together and a few useful thoughtful gifts, often hand-made.

Obviously, an article regarding Christmas, will not get many views in a blue city like Columbia.

On Christmas, my kids often just ask me for meaningful advice. They are in their fifties, and they have learned enough to know, that they can always learn more. We still give each other the benefits of our skills that we have acquired over the years. These gifts are priceless, and they last forever.

Christmas commemorates the birth of Jesus Christ, believed to be the Son of God. The celebration focuses on the Incarnation, or God becoming human. You don't need money to celebrate that.

Nothing is ever going back to what it once was. You will continue to fall. You only have your contentment now.
