I have no problem with that, specially for closed in spaces. You have show a divers license, proof of insurance, and it won’t be forever if we just do what needs to be done. Otherwise this is going to go on for a long time if we do be part of the solution. Some of are tired of doing this for others.

I would greatly prefer to go to a business if I knew the other people I ran into there would be vaccinated as well!

I have no desire to take a vacation, attend any event, inside or outside, theaters, restaurants, gyms, etc. with people who have not received the vaccine. Proof of vaccination must be required. As we've learned throughout this pandemic...people lie.

Missouri has a no vaccine passport law. I would report them to the law.

This is totalitarianism, he works for the people not the other way around. The heads are not kings, not an emporers. Struggling businesses should not have to pick and choose there customers when there already struggling, they are not the nazi police.

Our level of new cases does not warrant the drastic measures that we allowed spring of 2020. The 14 days to stop the spread is now day 506. If we allow this again, who knows when it would end. As low as the new daily positives are, we should start seeing a fall in total active cases very soon.

This is just more government interference where none is needed. The media is just adding to the panic. Unrealistic at this point to expect everyone to get a vaccine when you are still finding more potential side effects on those injections that have already been given!

It's not right to want to do that . Its goes against right to privacy. Whether you have the shot or not people still get it anyways . I would report any business that does it cause its basically going against HIPAA laws.

We need taxes, especially in Columbia. Columbia needs even more taxes, than all other cities. We also need a tax on purple hair dye.

We should not rely on other jails to take care of our problems. We have a responsibility to provide the proper facilities to our superhero police force

That will be an average cost, to every single person of Boone county, of $197 per year, for 20 years. $3920. What a deal.

I would support a 10-year tax for a bond issue to build the new jail, not a new forever sales tax.

The comment that I made indicating a total average cost, does not account for inflationary changes, which will probably more than double my $3920 estimate.

We've more than enough incarceration in this county, state, and nation, and it's frankly not helping.

The high crime problem is because the courts fail to punish the offenders hard enough to deter crime.

The need for a new jail isn’t new. County leaders have known for years it needed attention. Maybe the sheriff should’ve prioritized a jail before a multi-million dollar training facility. His budget priorities is his attempt at railroading the city’s public safety staffing and infrastructure needs.

I'd rather we put more money to schools to prevent there from being so many people in jail in the first place. If we fund our schools and the education system, there would be less people in jail. If we funded mental health services- there would be less people committing crimes

The crime problem is a result of the catch and release problem. Too, many people are not afraid to commit crimes.

Thinking like this is why the city of Columbia is short 50 police officers.
