Missouri Source of income discrimination

Can a landlord refuse Section 8 or other source of income in Missouri?

Missouri's fair housing section protects race, color, religion, national origin, ancestry, sex, disability and familial status. Source of income is not on the list, so there is no state ban on refusing Section 8. Check local ordinances.
