Would you favor alcohol and tobacco companies sponsoring school events? Thought not. Guns and bullets are in the same category. Former Nosler employees and former Mt. View High students involved in recent murders in Bend. Not good role models for our kids.

Leslie Knight

Advertisements at schools supporting any kind of weapon related items are not appropriate. Just ask the kids at Parkland, but you won't be able to reach them all...

Well DUH, Ammo, alcohol..... We can do better!

Naomi Sherpa

Advertising bullets have no place in school

Keeley Moore

So far 77% agree with Gabe. Maybe liberalism needs to move away.

David Kline

Ammunition and firearms manufacturers sponsoring school events is like Ted Bundy chaperoning the homecoming dance.

sandra zollman

Oh grow up. Maybe they should stop serving meat in schools also? You need to be concerned what the liberals are teaching kids.

Gabe West

People should get your kids out of the woke school district

sandra zollman

Gosh, I wonder where CB moved here from.

Gabe, please move to some backwoods state where they would appreciate your awful opinions.

This is flat out ridiculous. Nosler is a long time local, family-owned employer, with a great history of supporting the community and it's high school sports teams. The ultra liberal "Bendifornians" need to find something worthwhile to bitch about because this is not it.

sandra zollman

Amen. Couldn't agree more.

Susan Anderson

Nosler is a family on business that has supported schools for years before there were very many sponsors, they also supplied excellent jobs for people when they were very few employers in Bend we should be grateful to them not hateful! Many guns are used for sporting events , competition and fun.

Keeley Moore

Because guns are not bad. They are a tool. People being irresponsible with guns are the problem. Let Nosler give our student athletes help!!!

Please KTVZ post the whole issue rather than this blanket question in that Sponsors have been giving money to the community for a very long time and if some newbie has a problem with the sponsors; they should do their homework beforehand rather than wanting a blanket question to the public. Sheesh

Jim Hipp

Get a grip people! Your getting free money to support your kids events! Are you willing to pick up the slack?

Gabe West

Parents get your kids out of the woke school district and home school them

sandra zollman

They should be grateful for any sponsorship.

Andrew Shooks

Nosler is a long-time, family owned local company that has made great contributions to our community over the decades. They primarily manufacture high grade sporting ammunition. Thank them for their sponsorship and move on. This complaint is ridiculous.

Nosler is an excellent business and consistently supportive of our community. Maybe they should consider a limited release .556 with rainbow a rainbow tracer? That should calm the sign holding group down.

Mark Mueller

Bendifornians!!! I like it, that says it all!

Is someone who lets their pet off-leash in restricted areas considered a 'bad pet owner?'

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.

Kati Magana

If it is a law and you break it regardless of what it refers to that is breaking the law- which by definition is criminal. If you put your pet in a situation that is unsafe that is your responsibility and ergo you are a bad pet owner. Pets are like our kids, it's our job to keep them safe.

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?
