Public Health trumps any one person’s personal liberty. This is a war we must have compliance with. Otherwise, lockdowns are again inevitable!

Really? Then we should ban use of alcohol for many people are killed by drunk drivers, we should ban big cars that are more likely to kill someone, we should ban stairs as 100s or 1000s die every year on stairs. No, there are limits on stripping liberties on the basis of Public Health.

It amazes me that so many people are so ignorant and selfish in their refusal to get vaccinated. How much more evidence does someone need to see that the vaccine will save their life. If you are not vaccinated and you get Covid, you should have to pay your own medical expenses.

Funny cuz all the vaccinated people are passing Covid around. And I’m not getting it. I refuse. Nobody knows what problems it’s going to cause 5 years from now.

We have been getting vaccinated since the first three months of being born. Maybe if the medical community would stop treating the unvacinated. After all it's free choice.

They are being forced though coercion. They are being threatened with their jobs. That is coercion.

It is not unconstitutional. No one is being forced to be vaccinated, but the vaccination has become a condition of certain types of employment. I had to be fingerprinted and have a negative TB test in order to receive my teaching credential. I was not forced to get the credential. It was my choice.

Coercion is against the law. Vaccination under threat of losing livelihood….no one should have to be coerced into receiving it.

Such mandates violate personal conscience rights and religious rights, especially when considering that the "vaccines" are experimental, unproven, novel gene therapies and have connections to aborted children. Natural immunity studies show natural immunity is 6.7X more effective than "vaccines.

It's not okay to force it on someone. I have natural immunity from having covid, have been around people that have it currently including some that have gotten the shot and I have not gotten sick therefore I won't spread anything. So why force something that isn't needed on some people.

There is no need for this. Besides according to all the research the vaccine only helps reduce syptoms, it makes not difference in the spread of it, so it should totally be an individuals choice.

It's not a vaccine. there is no vaccine for a virus. Never will be. You cannot create a vaccine for an ever changing vaccine. They have been trying for years with the seasonal Flu. All they could create was a temporary flu shot. The mRNA is not a vaccine.

This made an error! I voted NO and it recorded yes! They shouldn't {and ALL} shouldn't be allowed on all public land because they do not follow rules! Dumping garbage, open flames during fire season, over extending time stay, etc. And now because of them our insurance is going up and land value goin

These people have had MONTHS of notice. Nobody ever told them it's acceptable to post up long-term there, so they shouldn't have planted their belongings out there if they have no way to move it. This sets a bad precedent if they're allowed to stay.

I can no longer use this area of public land for fear of walking into a homeless camp or being attacked by their "pets". This land is for all of us to use, not just the homeless.

Safety should be the biggest concern here. If these people are homeless, they can travel to another area to reside. Forest service doesn't always implement preventative measures. So this being one of the times they do. Its important to make sure it happens. Before there is anymore devastating fires.

They’ve had plenty of time to move. Why can the homeless trash/burn our beautiful forest? Tax paying citizens are only allowed to camp for 14 days! What about the homeowners rights near China Hat, they need to feel safe in their own community! This has gone on way too long and I’m surprised!

If you look at the Federal Regulations for camping on Federal land it states only 14 days. These people have over stated their welcome, they need to go and they have known about this for at least six months.

It is ironic the Bend Equity Group has filed a lawsuit to block the closure. Where is the indignation for the horrible environmental damage done by these campers who’ve violated the USFS long standing limit of a 14 day stay in a primitive camp site?

The danger of fire starting in this area is incredibly high and impacts large subdivisions. It is mandatory to close this area for the safety of all. This should not be a place for camping to be allowed as it has been.
