Ever since they've installed new cameras and increased patrol downtown, it's definitely gotten safer.

Honestly, I think the safety level's about the same now compared to a year ago.

Bend in general, the downtown in particular, continues to decline, to become more unsafe with each successive year.

Richard Dillard

Have you been downtown lately? Not only are the streets packed with cars trying to find a parking space you have over size pickups sticking into the driving lane when they find a parking space.

Sam Ackerman

I dont feel it's any safer, but with that I dont feel it's more unsafe either.

John Driscoll

Well said.

Darrell L Agee

Highly aggressive Drinkers and Homeless makes you have an unsafe feel.

Many of my students display addictive behaviors regarding their phones, and it has proven detrimental to their learning and social development. Any positive of cell phone use is vastly outweighed by negative consequences.

Sam Davis

Long overdue. Students need to focus on being educated in school, not watching videos, playing games, & chatting with each other. Educators and others do not need the distraction that cell cause. If there are emergencies that students need to know about there are other ways for them to find out.

David Kline

My teaching friends say it's been a battle to keep kids off their phones in class and wastes a bunch of class time time addressing this. How will this be enforced any differently though?

Between cell phone usage and lower graduating standards, OR is failing students

Given the recent wildfires near Redmond, would you support a personal fireworks ban?
