Over *4 times* as many children & teens have died from Gun Violence in America since 1963, than the total number of US Soldiers killed in action during Vietnam, Persian Gulf, Afghanistan, & Iraq wars COMBINED.

Max DeYoung

You are comparing 65,000 deaths, mostly inner city gang killings, to 62,000,000 innocent children murdered in abortion clinics.

Max DeYoung

And that does not include more than 62 million babies that have been killed by abortion in the United States since Roe vs. Wade. Roe vs Wade was not enacted until January 22, 1973. 62 million, is more than21 times the lives lost by US Soldiers in all of the United States Wars combined.

Guns aren't the problem it's the evil behind the gun... inflation should not even be in the same paragraph. It is disgusting. No baby formula, gas prices are draining us, everything is expensive...

Max DeYoung

Inflation and failed economies will always increase criminal activities, including gun violence.

Debra Riffle

You can't regulate free will. People make choices for good or evil. Inflation is something that the government can affect. Fuel prices affect every aspect of our economy. We need to be energy independent to do that. We need to open the pipeline and get busy drilling.

Mark Cunningham

Everyone is affected by inflation. Every business is affected by inflation. Inflation directly affects me more than gun violence.

We have to commute to work, approximately 70 miles every day. We fill up once a week, and the cost has risen from an average of $36.50 before the Iran war, to now $55.00 each week. We now have to budget more for gas than we did. And there is still nothing to show for any of this pointless conflic

Max

So, you support Iran? Well, I support America.

Im driving about 81.6 miles a day to get my son to daycare and then myself to work. Car averages 21 mpg and requires minimum 91 octane fuel. $70 twice a week plus what my husband spends in fuel for just traveling back and forth to work and home. Keeping son home 2 days from daycare to save on fuel.

You need a more fuel-efficient car.

While no one enjoys paying more $ gas is cheap for what you get.

I wish puppet Biden did not drain the strategic petroleum reserve in a failed political scheme, much like his unconstitutional student loan forgiveness, to buy votes. The oil pipelines to Canada, that Biden stopped, would be handy about now too. Voting for future Democrats will be very limited.

Max

Trump had just refilled it, after Obama drained it down to nothing.

Far bigger issues than fuel prices

A new tax is not the answer to the city's budget problems. City leaders need to live within your means, like everyone else. Vote NO on the new taxes.

Steve Baumann

We already pay enough in taxes. The City needs to check it's priorities and pull funding from programs that truly are not conductive to the day to day lives of the general tax paying citizen. Focus on the core competencies, not liberal dream programs.

Fred

Almost as bad an idea as replacing income taxes with higher sales taxes!

Max

You finally got one right. Did you have help?

Zaos Gonzolez

Your own safety is your own responsibility.
