tax payers should not be paying for what is essentially an elective procedure. Abortion is not healthcare unless the life of the expectant mother is in jeopardy.

This was forced by the Salem socialists. The only Commissioner I would never vote for is Chang, he likes Tax Payers paying for irresponsible behavior and would like to have more Commissioners on the board that believe in the socialist democrat agenda.

They already covered abortions in situations of rape, incest, or for medical reasons. Now, they're required to cover abortions when it's simply a want and not a need. If it's not medically necessary (or in the case of rape or incest) then it shouldn't be covered by medical insurance.

They have access to other birth control methods. Use them.

It is a personal responsibility if you get pregnant so it is also your responsibilty if you choose abortion which means you pay ...not taxpayers !

Abortion shouldn't be taken lightly and used as a form of birth control, especially with taxpayer dollars.

Absolutely not. Abortion is not women's health, it is not contraception, it is factually taking a human life period.

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.

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.

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.

BECAUSE most dog owners that do this have zero respect for others or property.. NEVER pick up poop and feel entitled

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

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.

Maybe there pet is trusted and not reactive. Why does a none relative happy pet need to be restricted?

BV is not a good quality restaurant for the cost. Have never liked them and always like Del Taco.
