Many parents and educators feel strongly that mask mandates are needed in schools where coronavirus transmission rates are high, such as Cole County.

Thank God I pulled my kids out of JC schools 20 years ago. All students 12 years of age or more should be vaccinated. Mandatory. All kids wear masks. Mandatory.

Sue Evans

Obviously masking is working. It's little premature to say the risk is gone.

John Starke

If I have to explain, you wouldn't understand.

Mask your own children, leave the other children alone. If I have to explain that to you, you would not understand.

The Jefferson City School District removed a mask mandate for students and staff indoors effective Friday. The district said case rates were low enough to remove the requirement.

There is no evidence that they work.

There is plenty of evidence that it traumatizes many of the children.

If you watch someone else's fireworks, you're a communist.

Shooting my own fireworks is dangerous if you’re not careful. Especially when you’re living on a hill. So no I’m not going to take the risk of shooting off fireworks close by neighbors.

This inept city council is trying to turn Columbia into another Portland, SF with all their woke, progressive nonsense.

This is so stupid. DEI, look it up, means to hire the most qualified person with no regard to race, religion, etc. Why are we wasting tax dollars on investigations that serve no purpose when we could do things for the community?

Nicole

As you can see in the comments of yes, folks have no idea what DEI is. DEI is not against the law as an executive order is NOT a LAW. Our state tax $ have better uses!

Max DeYoung

You need those dollars to lure in homeless.

Watch that Federal money dry up. FAFO.
