I tend to buy fireworks every year. My family and I always try to be safe. It's a tradition for us on 4th of July.

Due to how dry everything is and the fact that I have common sense, I plan on being extra cautious this year with fireworks I purchase. There hasn't been an independence day I haven't celebrated yet in my 48 years, nor will there be one so long as I'm here.

No, not this year.

I will not be purchasing and or igniting fireworks this year. We are in an extreme drought and it's too dangerous.

NO and I do not think they should be sole, so many people are NOT responsible and it is too hot, way too hot and dry just asking for trouble. Like the kid a few years ago that started the big Columbia Gorge fire!

Carol Oatman

Never again! its childish.

k san

I don't usually, and don't understand WHY they are being sold when they have been outlawed this year due to the high temps and fire danger. Why were fireworks even sold?? It will only encourage /allow rule-breakers and others who don't give a crap about anything but a few hours of entertainment.

Bruce Sharp

Never do.

tim collins

why I enjoy watching other peoples.

Debra Maffei

No one should be able to buy private fireworks anymore.

Kathy Farr

I believe that individual consumers shouldn't be able to buy fireworks....have believed this for decades.

Oakley Taylor

It is insane that we are allowing fireworks to be sold this years. Too many chances of mishaps by people that don't take proper precautions.

Leslie Ann

I CANT BELIEVE OREGON HAS THE NERVE TO SELL FIREWORKS!! We're already seeing wildfires now. Last year was devastating! We need to STOP the sale FIREWORKS, PERIOD!! The governor is so fricken strict about COVID but when it boils down to helping save Oregon, she is horrid!! Fire departments need to

Rick Allen

yes exactly!

Leslie Ann

Massachusetts bans ALL FIREWORKS, other states should stand up & ban them too!! Especially those who have major wildfires!!

Leslie Ann

FIRE departments need to protest, STOP ALL PERSONAL FIREWORKS IN THE STATE OF OREGON FOR GOOD!!

Alexa Garcia

Celebrating Fourth of July knowing that America is colonized, and people don’t accept it is the main reason. Another is consumerism. Finally, the earth is a heat ball. It’s dry. It is at risk. Last year, a couple of drunk folks launch fireworks at are yard and caught it on fire. All for a post. Nah.

Dianne Price

Too dry!!

Terree Putman

Never do we buy fireworks, they should be banned!!!

dapper dog

I have dogs and it is so miserable for them. I wish they were cancelled here as well as other spots.

Lynn Huntley

This dry and dire conditions for fire, they should be banned.

Even a friendly dog with excellent recall can cause real problems for the owner walking their reactive dog on leash; a dog running free is highly exciting to other dogs; it's not fair for the owner of the reactive dog to have to deal with that overstimulation in a "leash only" area.

robert weber

I recently I commented that it is not fair. But your comment makes me feel incorrect. I have had a reactive dog before and I feel that your comment is valid.

Kim Ritchie

yes because they are putting their dog as well as people with leashed pets at risk. Not all dogs like other dogs and not all people are comfortable with strange dogs running up to them.

Ann Thomas

There are laws and rules for a reason. No one should think that laws and rules don't apply to them. If they want their dog off leash then go out in the woods where no one else is or to a fenced dog park.

Deborah Albright

BECAUSE most dog owners that do this have zero respect for others or property.. NEVER pick up poop and feel entitled

Nic Secor

There are leash laws for good reason. On a side note Bend Parks and Recreation need to put up signs at dog parks reminding owners that they are liable for damages their dogs cause to other dogs or humans under Oregon law. Bend PD treat dog parks like they are outside of their jurisdiction.

A bad dog owner is someone who is not able to care of the animal or mistreats the animal. The person is just not considerate of others and will break the law for whatever reason they may have. *if you have an aggressive dog it is the OWNERS responsibility to keep the dog under control anywhere

Payton Dixson

There are many factors, if your dog has great recall and obeys to stay in a heal being off leash is fine as the dog is still in verbal control. Dogs that do not listen should not be off leash.

robert weber

Maybe there pet is trusted and not reactive. Why does a none relative happy pet need to be restricted?
