cons:
>MDC are fucking dicks LARPing as cops and will use any excuse to search, intimidate and interrogate you while ignoring the actual criminals>state troopers and sheriffs are twice as bad as the MDC>winter camping is loltier because of all the fudds infesting public land for hunting>"public" land is basically all pastures because durr hunting and the MDC leases it to farmers>can't camp on most public land>can't shoot feral hogs on any MDC managed land>lots of meth heads, weed users, dumbass rednecks that can't mind their own business and a massive influx of blue fucks from everywhere in the last 6 yearspros:
>based gun and knife laws with stand your ground and castle doctrine>the lakes and rivers we have are amazing>lots of wildlife, barely any predators except the rare stray cougar or black bear in the southern parts of the state>southern Missouri is /out/ heaven with small mountains, tons of forest and streams/lakes everywhere teaming with fishmove to anywhere south of Warsaw (especially near Mark Twain, Branson or Poplar Bluff) and you should be alright, move to the north or metros you're going to have a bad time, also finding a decent job in this state outside the metros or factories is hard as fuck
