I grew up around Northeast Kansas City, so I'm use to it. I do believe Auto/simi- auto should be banned from the public, and back ground checks should be more extensive, and people with mental issues shouldn't have access to any guns. But don't try to repeal the 2nd Admin. cause that will cause war.

I can understand if you live in Columbia, that you would say yes. They have shootings nearly every night. I doubt that these firearms were legally acquired, and I doubt that the shooters belong to the NRA. And I know these shooting are not being done by Conservatives.

Several shootings and shots-fired incidents have been reported in Columbia in the last few weeks. Two people were shot downtown over MU's Homecoming weekend.

I think the answer is a yes & a no....many of these drive by/downtown shootings are not 'random'....especially the drive by shootings into residences.....until the public & homeowners step up this will continue...whether its revenge I would bet the victims are aware of their enemies.sadly iinnocents

The shootings have been mostly peaceful, except for times when someone got hit.
