I think counties should have the right to defy state laws because every county should have their own choice.

We have to get Oregon out of the Democrat's hands and their destructive ways!

Federal law trumps state or local laws...UNLESS the state or local laws benefit then the state or local laws prevail. For example. If a federal law says you cannot protect yourself but a state or local law says you can, then the helpful law prevails. Its been like that for years.

Kimra Tollefson

The state is no longer representing the people. The laws are contrary to the Constitution. The government is betraying its own people.

Andy Dobrinin

Local control of government. No laws shall be passed that infringe on individuals rights. 2 ND amendment is for the citizens to maintain control of their own person and their government. Without it the country will fail.

Dawn Williams

When laws are contradictory to the Constitution they should not be enforced. When tyranny becomes law disobedience become necessary! STOP VOTING FOR LIBERAL DEMOCRATS

The right of the people to keep and bear arms SHALL NOT BE INFRINGED

If the state can defy federal laws, the counties should be able to defy state laws.

Tarasem

Laws are anti-freedom.

Mary M

Depending on what they are? In this case for guns yes because the State is going against the Constitution for our 2nd amendment right.. "SHALL NOT INFRINGE" SAYS IT ALL!!!

P Robbins

That's not what the Supreme Court said in Heller.

Matt Cyrus

Every elected official takes an oath to uphold the Constitution and are obligated to ignore any law they believe to believe to be unconstitutional.

P Robbins

No. The Supreme Court decides what is or is not Constitutional, not individuals.

Robert Northrup

Multnomah County doesn't follow the laws. Portland is quickly becoming like Chicago. Crime and murder are on the rise all over Oregon. Oregon, California and Washington are being destroyed by democrats.

Conservative counties should defy liberal laws

Tarasem

Everybody should defy all laws.

I think every county should follow state laws. If they see an ordinance has a conflict with state law, it shouldn't pass.

No but, they have the right (and should benefit from it) to deviate from the FEDERAL norms and mandates when warranted. You know the goose and the gander comparisons don't you?..........Same here!

k san

I can't even believe this is a question!! Of course, they should!

Les Adams

Well, because that's the system in place to protect EVERYONE'S welfare, whether we like every specific law or not.

P Robbins

Laws are for everyone. Without our laws we have anarchy. This is a ridiculous question for a "poll".

Tarasem

Laws are anti freedom.

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.

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?
