no reason for biological males to use female bathrooms, join their sports. If they want to dress and behave as a women that is their decision. To allow them into the bathroom with my grandaughter is NOT. Same for women acting like men.

It should be left alone ! Columbia has enough crime and issues as it is . There is enough of them running around and we don't need the crime and people to spread north in the state . People should stand up for their rights and beliefs. God made you a woman you stay that way , God made U a man be 1.

there has been a prevalent queer community in columbia for decades. as a trans* person who almost had to immediately move out of state, it can be scary. protections like this are important to minorities. queer people deserve human rights too.
Replyqueer people need safe spaces in a majority red state, especially within the legislature. queer people are humans too
ReplyColumbia thrives as the liberal hub of Missouri, it's obvious that the city has leaned towards being more welcoming than the rest of the state. Everyone should feel safe no matter what their personal preferences are. That last sentence is the reason I voted this way.
