The Columbia city council refuses to see reality, every shooting,fight or violent event is swept under the table . They have no compassion for the tax payers in this city who are afraid to walk downtown at night because of aggressive and violent homeless panhandlers. They are inept & incompetent.

Shame on past & present Mayors & City Councils for allowing crime in this city to go unchecked. The police were underfunded & under supported by so called "city leaders" for decades. No wonder MU is developing their own entertainment area away from downtown. Good luck business owners. Vote harder

No Money to hire police but can raise taxes for walking trails and round abouts

80% of the people who voted, voted with their hearts and minds. And, they are correct, the others have their heads in the sand.

Cities have crime. People need to stop being scared. It sucks, but it happens. You're not going to stop all crime in a city.

Columbia does not have to be like St. Louis, but it is.
