There’s data out there. There’s scientific evidence out who this effects and who it doesn’t and kids are the least likely to have a problem with this.— Mike Parson
The Republican Governor of Missouri, Mike Parson, answered questions on the Marc Cox Show on July 17, 2020, about COVID-19, overreaching laws, masks, school and children and the right of citizens to stand their ground against mobs. He made it clear that it’s time for people to “start holding people accountable and elected officials.” He added that “people probably need to be making decisions for themselves.”
“Look, you can’t just, these kids have got to get back to school. They’re at the lowest risk possible.
The risk of not getting youth involved in activities, the risk of not putting them back in school— I guarantee you will create more problems than the virus will create long term for our state— Mike Parson
Parson continued: “And if they do get Covid-19, which they will—and they will when they go to school—they’re not going to the hospitals. They’re not going to have to sit in doctor’s offices. They’re going to go home, and they’re going to get over it— and most of it all turns out to be that way. If you look at the science of it— and we got to get real with that and realize that, you know, we’ve got to move forward. The risk of not getting youth involved in activities, the risk of not putting them back in school— I guarantee you will create more problems than the virus will create long term for our state.”
People Of Missouri Smart Enough To Figure COVID-19 Out
Parson chooses to trust Missourians instead of riding roughshod over their rights, explaining, “Vast majority of people in this state are smart enough to figure this out.— and we need to utilize that. We know the risk, we know who the people are at the high risk. We just got to take care of each other.”
“I just heard in the opening of the show, get the kids back to school. I mean, we got to move on. We can’t just let this thing stop us in our tracks. We can’t move forward with the economy, with our lives, I mean, its a virus that we can handle,” he predicts.
Missourians have the right to stand their ground and protect their property, this shouldn't be a political issue. Joined The Marc Cox Show this morning to talk about the McCloskeys, COVID-19, and crime in our state. Listen to the full interview ⬇️

Shutting Down PowerPlex in St. Louis
When asked about politicians in St. Louis shutting down the PowerPlex because two out of twelve thousand youths were infected with the Wuhan Corona Virus, Parson argues that some people who are in positions of power are not paying attention to the science, “There’s data out there. There’s scientific evidence out who this effects and who it doesn’t and kids are the least likely to have a problem with this. Look, you can’t just, these kids have got to get back to school. They’re the lowest risk possible, and if they do get the COVID-19, which they will, and they will when they go to school, they’re not going to the hospital. They’re not going to have to sit in doctors’ offices. They’re going to go home— and they’re going to get over it.”
Parson added: “And most of it all turns out to be that way if you look at the science of it.”
Elections matter— and we’re seeing a perfect example as we go through this process of who’s overreacting— who’s using scientific data to make decisions.— Mike Parson
Get Life Back To Normal ASAP!
In his remarks, Parson concluded that “At some point, like you said a while ago, there’s got to be a balancing act for this. Everybody, there’s certain things I can do as governor— certain things I can’t. But, look, people going to have to start holding people accountable and elected officials.”
Parson explains, “Elections matter— and we’re seeing a perfect example as we go through this process of who’s overreacting— who’s using scientific data to make decisions.”
We The People Need To Make Decisions
In the Declaration of Independence, the colonies agreed unanimously to the idea that any right man has is given to him by “Nature’s God.” That no government or another man could take, infringe, or trespass those rights so “endowed” legally without permission.
In this country, we have due process. Each American has surrendered a small part of his “unalienable rights” to a government constrained to only “enumerated powers.” Those powers are listed in our Constitution. If government needs more power, we have an amendment process.
Unfortunately, many politicians are just saying, like King Louis XIV of France, “It is legal because I wish it.”
Parson distinguishes himself by making the point, “And the other thing of it is, people probably need to be making decisions for themselves. Instead of just me or Sam Page, or whoever it might be— all of a sudden thinks, OK, I’m going to take over and make all the rules for everybody.”
He concluded, “That’s not good policy.”
