St. Louis County Council members voted Tuesday along party and gender lines to adopt Bill No. 29. The council's four women, all Democrats, voted in favor while its three men, all Republicans, were opposed. County Executive Sam Page is set to sign the bill into law on March 10, according to Deputy County Clerk Janie Alexander, who said Page has already signaled support for the legislation.
Councilwoman Kelli Dunaway conceded that the measure"would make an ordinance that doesn't have the same penalties as a federal crime but the problem is that these particular federal crimes do not get prosecuted. Dunaway said at the meeting that of"all the cases that run across the US attorney's desk, this is not one that does or will take priority. They are too busy with much bigger issues.
But what about St. Louis City?
Makes sense
It's closing the gate after the horse has bolted, but better than nothing I suppose.
Hallelujah!!

Should be banned from guns period
Just concealed?
BaylessMarilyn When the Founding Fathers included the phrase 'A well regulated militia' they had in mind the mayhem the town drunk or village idiot would cause mustering to fight the British. Today we can apply it to wife beaters.
BaylessMarilyn Why not banned from owning any guns, period.
Thanks?

They can still have the guns, just not concealed?! Oh, ok. 🤦🏻♀️
YES!!!!!!!!!!
Great news.
This is great. Unless I’m misremembering, domestic violence households are far more likely to have homicide later.
All of you are fools if you think that's gonna stop folks that are hell-bent on using a gun to harm someone.
It's already against the law....
Why is this just happening?
Great!
Just another way to criminalize people smh.
Someone intent on shooting a significant other doesn’t care about any law you can come up with
Makes sense to me
let’s say tuna have lion redily available and now have a taste for lion
Federal law already prohibits those with domestic violence convictions from possessing a firearm.
WTG Missouri!! Setting standards for all! ✌🏼
The bill would take a federal felony charge and make it an ordinance violation.
That’s the best news I’ve heard in a long time. Now let’s get this everywhere
Pretty soon we will make it illegal to murder someone with a gun or knife. Oh, wait. That’s already against the law. How does it still happen?
Makes sense!
Good.
Councilwoman Lisa Clancy , chair of the county council , introduced the bill.
Literally the dumbest piece of legislature I’ve ever seen. What good will this do?
Let's see them go in their houses and take the guns then. Until then, it's all talk.
How about being banned from even owning a weapon?
Councilman Mark Harder voted no and at the meeting called the bill ' flawed'.
Take their guns away
Enjoy your guns folks. Who you going to shoot next? Someone's child I am sure.
Unfortunately if you want to buy a gun on the downlow for criminal activity, that's incredibly freaking easy to do. And pieces of paper don't halt bullets. On the flipside, this is a step in the right direction.
Rogue Guns! Anti-Gun PSA
The women on the county council voted yes .The men on the county council voted no.
