Charlie Kirk was a man of faith and gave his very life for the values I stand for. He was a voice heard around the world

He was a racist, white supremacist, and very divisive figure. The political violence that ended his lift is a terrible thing but it’s something he helped foment. This is the most ridiculous idea I can imagine.

I never heard of this guy before he was murdered, but it looks like he had a track record of saying awful things, and fomented the conditions in society that led to his demise. That's very tragic, but there are other people more deserving of a day.

Though this is a tragic incident and a terrible time of violence in our country, Mr. Kirk was not an elected official. We should honor his family and respect them in many ways and I certainly have sympathy for his family. But this does not warrant aday in Oregon devoted to his name or his politics.

A highly partisan figure in American politics should never be given a day of observance for any reason. It should be acknowledge that violence is not acceptable in any form for any reason, but it should not be honored and given Publicity because of it.

He was not a government figure, and while I don’t condone the violence that took his life, he called on his supporters to bail out others that committed violence against elected government officials.

This guy was homophobic, racist, and anti women’s rights. While I think his murder is wrong, he is not a hero. He encouraged hatred towards people he didn’t agree with their lifestyles in his “teachings”. I don’t think Jesus would support him…he preached love for everyone!

We didn't create a Melissa Hortmann day and she was a good person. Charlie Kirk's rhetoric was about racism, sexism, mysoginism, and divisiveness. He was not a good person and represented everything that was NOT Christian.

Sure! Let's give kudos to the shooter! NOT! What about the 5 officers who just got shot in Pennsylvania? Should we have a day for that too?? Absolutely NOT necessary.

We travel to Arizona several times a year and it's RIDICULOUS it wasn't offered the last year or 2!! Portland just finished the new terminal when all of a sudden Redmond -- Alaska stopped going to Portland. WE HAD TO GO TO SEATTLE TO GO SOUTH --IT WILL be wonderful to have & KEEP IT YEAR ROUND!!
ReplyI'd rather change planes (and even airlines) in Portland, than most of the standard layover points and arrival times.
ReplyMany people need to access OHSU for advanced medical treatments not available in Bend. Driving to Portland is not always an option especially in the winter months. Being able to fly into PDX is safer and far less stressful for those needing care at OHSU.
ReplyWork requires me to be there but for only a day at a time, on and off during the winter. It's an easy choice when I can simply expense it.
