I think body cams strengthen the relationship between the community and the police department.

People are more accountable when they’re being watched. What a person does when nobody is watching is vastly different from when there is some form of supervision.

David Brown

It actually should make all parties more accountable as the issue isn’t just “bad” cops but also bad people making bad choices. The old saying, “If you can afford to do the time, don’t do the crime!” Stop, take responsibility, if you’re not guilty, you’re not responsible, let the system work for you

Heidi Owen

Will make people more accountable. Let's face it that's where it starts.

Terri Knotts

The cameras will protect all parties involved if there is ever a question about ethics ,brutality or the truth of what happens

I think police officers have the ability and turn them off. I don't think it changes anything.

How about teaching respect and morals so things don't get so out of hand. That and having more than one person.

Rick Allen

The police are not the problem, the Democrats are the problem, lets record everything they say and do!

I just realized last month that the Bird ebikes where not littering the sidewalks.

SA Timms

Too many bike riders currently riding on a sidewalk, then they change to a street, then a bike path. BTW...how fast will these ebikes go. Also, many riders aren't cautious....currently. Who's going to enforce an age minimum? THIS is already a problem! Hope accidents don't happen.

Joal Smith

I agree 100% Even Walking is dangerous because of bikes

Wade Palmer

These are a nuisance and left all over town. That and the traffic problems caused by less car lanes.

Lisa York

great ..more e bikes left all over the city... they're a nuisance...

Tammie Hagemann

I voted this way because I still have 50.00 on the blue bird bike app that I can't get back at all. I had NO idea that when the program ended you wouldn't get your money back

Many of my students display addictive behaviors regarding their phones, and it has proven detrimental to their learning and social development. Any positive of cell phone use is vastly outweighed by negative consequences.

Sam Davis

Long overdue. Students need to focus on being educated in school, not watching videos, playing games, & chatting with each other. Educators and others do not need the distraction that cell cause. If there are emergencies that students need to know about there are other ways for them to find out.

Kids are way too addicted to their phones and it is affecting their learning. Phones could be kept in a basket in the classroom in case of emergency, but definitely NOT with the kid.

David Kline

My teaching friends say it's been a battle to keep kids off their phones in class and wastes a bunch of class time time addressing this. How will this be enforced any differently though?

Kimmy Wasatch

Between cell phone usage and lower graduating standards, OR is failing students

There are times that they shouldn't have them but check them at the door of class rooms to cut back on the use. Emergencies do happen and cells are useful
