    Missouri is a very conservative place. They would see this as too scandalous, think her to be an immortal person, and not fit to be around children. I’m not saying it’s right, just the perspective of the majority in that area of the country.

      Nobody wants vampires around their kids!

      But seriously, though, the people you’re describing sound like they’d be right at home in Iran—moreso than a lot of Iranians.

      Missouri is deeply stupid. But not “conservative”. And I say that as a lifelong resident. Talk about any liberal, progressive, or possibly socialist policy in isolation. Most Missourians would find them favorable. The biggest trick is to avoid their programmed triggers. If you can navigate around their programming. You will get rational and reasonable responses most times. But that’s the trick. So many of them are so heavily programmed and tightly wound. That rationality is almost a foregone conclusion out of reach.
