Because they have no option to stay at safe distances with over 100 guys in a dorm and just one COVID case will spread like wildfire in tight quarters with shared showers, toilets, etc. Just because they are paying consequences doesn't give a right to treat them inhumanely.

Public wants them in prison, they should take care of them. As. Person who has been in prison, the medical care is poor. People who are illegal aliens get better care. If you don't want to pay for it. Don't put people in prison.

I think they should get the vaccine, but definitely NOT before seniors. OR teachers have already been given priority over seniors. You only have to look at the daily stats of who exactly is dying of Covid every day and it is seniors!!

Good citizens can't get it so why do they deserve to get it?!!! They should wear masks and wait their turn like everyone else. So they are working on vaccinating people 80 years old and older and don't even have enough for them!!!

Everyone seems to be getting prioritized over our seniors, who are the most vulnerable. Take care of our seniors!!!

We should be vaccinating the vulnerable population (elderly and those with underlying conditions) before vaccinating healthy teachers or healthy prisoners. We're literally killing thousands of elderly and high-risk people with these decisions.

If we keep it up inmates will have more rights than ones who has never been in trouble. Inmates even get all of their medical & Dental needs paid in full but someone like me who has never been in trouble can't even afford Dental because medicare don't have dental or vision & Bend don't want to help.

Prison officials must implement ALL safety measures, that law abiding citizens are practicing, including masks, gloves, sanitation, quarantine-no more than SIX persons together in any room or activity at any one time! Educate the prisoners so they understand the importance of compliance!

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 doesn’t deserve it. He is a nobody and spewed hateful rhetoric.

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.
