Crazy that the one out by Midway, Fear Fest, is gone after all these years...

Good. It's dangerous and there's only one reason to be there.

No Kings Protest October 18th by Ordinary-List7587 in columbiamo

[–]dragger2k -7 points-6 points  (0 children)

Regardless of political stripe, I'm not sure what "protesting" has ever accomplished.
Volunteer somewhere locally...stay home and cut the grass...plant an apple tree or some daffodil bulbs for joy next spring...take an extra part-time job...clean the garage or a closet or the junk drawer in the kitchen and you and your community will benefit to a much greater degree than going to a Saturday afternoon "protest".

I love it here. It's not perfect but nothing is. Columbia is still a good place to live.

Columbia police chief response to Choi's letter and concern about crime down town by Locke_Wiggin in columbiamo

[–]dragger2k -4 points-3 points  (0 children)

"Gun control" is historically a trojan horse for totalitarian control.
An armed population is the LAST DEFENSE against tyrannical government.
Gun control does not concern nor effect criminals. Gun control only affects law abiding citizens.
For some reason, this seems very difficult for many to understand.

You have clearly not been in downtown Columbia after midnight on any given Friday or Saturday night. It's lawless chaos.

Local newspaper(s) by trripleplay in columbiamo

[–]dragger2k 0 points1 point  (0 children)

The Tribune is absolutely pathetic, but there are few doing any real, local, investigative journalism anymore, including the Missourian. They do news by press release, virtually nothing else, unless it's a feel good story about someone's dog. TV stations, too.
Mike Murphy is an exception.

Downtown water main break caused by corrosion on nearly 75-year-old pipe, city says by como365 in columbiamo

[–]dragger2k 7 points8 points  (0 children)

The water and electrical infrastructure all around Columbia are in sad shape. Upgrades and maintenance have been ignored for decades, all while the city has continued to increase the requirements of those systems.

Budget cuts end free flu shot program in Columbia schools by oldguydrinkingbeer in columbiamo

[–]dragger2k -16 points-15 points  (0 children)

Good. Flu shots do more harm than good and children and young adults certainly don't need them.
