This is an excellent example of why people hate the government. People do not want others to make their decisions for them. This kind of disarray, is why governments can mess up an anvil, with a Kleenex. Then tell everyone it's for their own good.

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.

queer people need safe spaces in a majority red state, especially within the legislature. queer people are humans too

Columbia 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.

And, as dangerous as St. Louis.

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.

I absolutely disagree with any city becoming a Sanctuary for any group. The laws take care of all the people in their community if law enforcement and judges follow the laws.

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.

You're talking about a city council that spend $20k on a leadership retreat that only lasted a few days. You're also talking about a city council that allocated $2.17M in ARPA funds to "crimefighting" but are giving $0 to the PD....they're going to hire a terrible liberal chief that will ruin the PD

Why is only one of the people from this area? Are locals not good enough for Columbia?
