1 in 1,000 perhaps. And that is usually a physical deformity that can be corrected.

I’m disappointed that this is a poll anywhere, but especially in our community. Please don’t encourage hate and oppression. This is ridiculous. Take it down.

Just because you don't agree with something, that does not mean you hate it. or hate some one.

Trans/nonbinary identities aren’t actually up for debate and it’s dangerously irresponsible for you, KTVZ, to use these topics for polls, further the dehumanizing of trans folks instead of education.

Really, Louise Baker? How is it a problem for businesses to add one measly little line to help people who are already marginalized feel just a little less marginalized? It literally costs NOTHING.

Ask any obstetrician and they will tell you that they have never delivered anything other than a male or a female.

You apparently haven't asked any obstetrician. Approximately one in sixty babies are born intersex.

encouraging gender dysphoria (a mental illness) is not tenable.

Men are men & women are women. It is not fair to businesses to have to accommodate people’s personal gender choices.

Businesses shouldnt have to cater to them and people shouldnt have to be uncomfortable watching them. It's just unamerican.

Because they can be what they want, but we should not allow genger changes some people want. Our gender is decided for us in the womb. Therefore I believe this country should not allow nor change it.

Never should have been allowed in the first place! Bend needs to develop a site with bathrooms, showers and rules,like NO drugs and NO trash. At least Redmond is trying to help these people. Take a. Lesson from them. Get off the dime and solve the problem

I say move the campers off forest land and onto main street if you want public funding for homelessness in Bend to become an immediate priority!!!

They have had excessive amount of time to move off land they are not even allowed to live on!

They have had ample time to move. Vegetation reduction helps slow and or stop wildfires that will eventually hit that area and destroy millions of dollars worth of homes and people's lives.

Living in SE Bend I really enjoyed going to China Hat with my Jeep to off road and walk with my dogs. The thought of being shot has kept me from doing that for a while now. Good riddance to the homeless and make it where they can't come back.

it is public land, NOT someones home! The public cannot use it without fear of saftey. We DONT need another human caused fire that happens EVERY year out there, we have enough to worry about with mother nature fires. Time to move on!

Being homeless is usually the result of bad choices. My taxes help pay for government land. Living there rent free and creating tons of garbage, being a true threat to causing wildfires, behaving in a lawless manner angers too many of us who manage to pay for real housing. Move them out now.

We all have problems in life why do they think it is ok to do what they are doing, when the rest of us pay our taxes, go to work, get counseling if we have problems. The amount they spend on drugs, they could pay rent. It’s a choice and their choice is to do drugs and not work. DEATH and TAXES!!!

This homeless problem is a choice. These people are drug addicts that need to get clean and go back to work. They should be put into rehab while being counseled for their personal problems. Once clean they should be put to work doing tasks that prisoners do. If they refuse, then jail them.

The Homeless Campers are the wrong people on the wrong landscape due to their lack of cognitive awareness of fire. I and many others are willing to share grace for their position in life when they are willing to improve their situation through counseling, accepting shelter to transition life.

They are humans and have no other options.We try not to let that happen to unwanted pets, yet have no problem in letting it happen to, what many consider, unwanted people!
