Very minimum we should be doing. What's not to like? Even the most ardent gun rights supporters teach and follow gun safety. That's all this is--a prompt for safety. If there can be no middle ground on a law like this, then we are doomed as a civil society.

Democrats are dooming society. Portland rioters are destroying Portland and are allowed to do so on an almost daily basis. Drug abuse is rampant because there are no penalties. No wonder homelessness is a plague in Blue states.

No, I'm against it!

How about making killing people such a serious offence that killers will think before they start shooting! Instead of 10-30 years in prison and supported by tax payers. How about a life for a life! Our laws on criminals are way too light and takes way too long for final decisions.

The sponsor of this bill needs to provide evidence that such a drastic measure will effectively reduce theft and crimes with STOLEN firearms. There is no one-size-fits-all solution for stopping gun violence. Above all the State needs to hold criminals accountable for their actions.

Will not help the gun violence and possibly make criminals out of honest law abiding citizens.

How is it going to protect you in your home an in invasion, if it is locked up, and you are asleep in the night? You would not have time to find the key or unlock it from a locked box. if there were criminals breaking into your home. You need to grab it quickly. for protection.

I have owned guns since I was 12 years old I am 90 now, this law will only effect law abiding citizens, If I have a home invasion why should I not have ready access to my means of protection, Democrats are destroying Oregon This law has nothing to do with saving lives, it is another power play.

rules like this only hurt the good guys does nothing to stop the bad guys. This is not a gun problem but a people problem. simply put guns can not kill someone period. it is a person that kills whether it is done with a gun knife hammer etc. none can do harm with out a person using it!!

For those of you that think there should be a law to keep legislators from walking out, just look at the vote count on this question. Laws created aren't necessarily the will of the people, they know it, which is why they won't allow the issue to go to a vote. Walkouts can stop bad laws.

There are plenty of gun laws on the books now. How are you supposed to protect yourself if your protection is locked up?

I am vehemently against it! It is backward thinking! We need more honest citizens with guns, concealed carry, their would be less gun violence, people around them would be safer! A locked gun is useless in an emergency! The problem is not guns, people kill people. More people are killed by knives!

Smart gun owners already lock up their fire arms, ammunition, etc. This bill does nothing to reduce gun violence; it just passes the burden of gun safety 100% to individuals. The government isn't really interested in coming up with intelligent regulations (like 100% background checks).

We have 100% background checks. Even between private sellers which only depends on the honesty of the purchaser and seller. Again only the law abiding will follow the law. Even Joe Biden's son lied on a background check to purchase a gun which was later disposed of illegally.

Never should have been allowed in the first place! Bend needs to develop a site with bathrooms, showers and rules,like NO drugs and NO trash. At least Redmond is trying to help these people. Take a. Lesson from them. Get off the dime and solve the problem

I say move the campers off forest land and onto main street if you want public funding for homelessness in Bend to become an immediate priority!!!

They have had ample time to move. Vegetation reduction helps slow and or stop wildfires that will eventually hit that area and destroy millions of dollars worth of homes and people's lives.

Living in SE Bend I really enjoyed going to China Hat with my Jeep to off road and walk with my dogs. The thought of being shot has kept me from doing that for a while now. Good riddance to the homeless and make it where they can't come back.

it is public land, NOT someones home! The public cannot use it without fear of saftey. We DONT need another human caused fire that happens EVERY year out there, we have enough to worry about with mother nature fires. Time to move on!

Being homeless is usually the result of bad choices. My taxes help pay for government land. Living there rent free and creating tons of garbage, being a true threat to causing wildfires, behaving in a lawless manner angers too many of us who manage to pay for real housing. Move them out now.

We all have problems in life why do they think it is ok to do what they are doing, when the rest of us pay our taxes, go to work, get counseling if we have problems. The amount they spend on drugs, they could pay rent. It’s a choice and their choice is to do drugs and not work. DEATH and TAXES!!!

This homeless problem is a choice. These people are drug addicts that need to get clean and go back to work. They should be put into rehab while being counseled for their personal problems. Once clean they should be put to work doing tasks that prisoners do. If they refuse, then jail them.

The Homeless Campers are the wrong people on the wrong landscape due to their lack of cognitive awareness of fire. I and many others are willing to share grace for their position in life when they are willing to improve their situation through counseling, accepting shelter to transition life.

They are humans and have no other options.We try not to let that happen to unwanted pets, yet have no problem in letting it happen to, what many consider, unwanted people!
