Missourinet.com contributor Alex Derosier broke the news about this new proposed rule change. As Missouri law currently stands, guns are prohibited in public places such as bars, casinos, universities, churches, and stadiums capable of holding 5,000 people or greater.
This bill, should it become law, would eliminate these restrictions allowing for guns to be taken into many locations once off limits. Professional sports teams across the state are testifying against this proposal. Privately owned stadiums would have no issue as those rules can be set by the owners. However, this will create muddy waters for publicly owned stadiums and venues.
