Peaceful protesting does lead to change. If a lot of people gather and voice their opinion government officials will hear them.

Takes time, but yes, it matters eventually.

One only has to look back at the Civil Rights Movement and Voting Rights Act, et al, to know that they do.

Our current so called protest are actually just out of control violence being perpetrated agianst small business, innocent people and our police officers who are trying to protect us.

Larry Ewart

I have never felt wronged enough to protest. To do so violently just tells me you are of poor character and have been spoiled so as to get your way

Jacqueline Loyd

This is America. Can we cross borders into other countries with no passport. Bend protesters need to read up on our rights, then stay home. Your the problem not those who are protecting all Americans.

Some demonstrations do lead to change... These? Not a chance. If they did lead to change, based on the platform of the protesters, the US would have no police, open boarders, and crimes run rampant

Michael Miller

Darn few advocate for any of that.

Nancy

Some of these people are paid to protest and when it turns violet the police can't even tell who they are due to mask restrictions. Portland is a perfect example of how our Governor has failed us!

Michael Miller

If you know protestors are paid, then you must be paying them. Where do these crazy ideas come from, anyway?

No to more taxes, people are taxed enough!

JB Demaris

ODOT, and other state agencies need to live within a reasonable budget and the state needs to stop raising taxes!

John Conway

ODOT Leadership is totally incompetent! They spend a billion dollars they don’t have and come to the taxpayers to bail them out. As far as increasing gas tax and registration fees we already pay.40 cents per gallon and our gas prices are $2 per gallon more than the rest of the country. No more mone!

Garry Aklin

We are taxed enough ! Oregon needs to balance the budget!

Jim Hipp

We are taxed to death and I'm sick of it. Let Tina cover it out of her pocket!

Pam Ferguson

We are paying enough. The odor people have NOTbeen doing their jobs the last few years. You never see them out working like you used to and there are a lot of "mistakes" it started going down hill when they went to "teams" no boss system

We need a 'No Camp Zone ' radius around urban and sub urban areas and then have a few managed campsites within the new limit. Only 2 options. The risk to property owners and the option to live on the fringe is not right. Not a problem before 2020 and it's over time to get back to before.
