Perfect candidate to run against a republican. He would need to resign from his senate seat, spend millions of dollars of dem. money, drop out before primary and disappear from Oregon history.

He will take a principled stand on issues that serve the public good. He has the courage, conviction and dedication to take this stand for us. Yes, Absolutely!

I'm a Democrat and believe Merkley is a good man, but I've met him and seen him speak in person. He literally sucks the energy out of a room and doesn't possess the persona to get us back into the WH

"Voted red all the way". Well, communism is red, however, so is a closed mind.

Why? He is not nationally known, like a Rubio or a Kasich. It would guarantee another term for the idiot who now occupies the Office,

Merkley is waaay too far left. He talks big, produces nothing that makes Oregon better.

He is the most divisive Senator we have. He is a propaganda driven, progressive left politician that has no care for the real people he represents. Can't stand him. Sorry.

While I like Merkley, he does not have the personality to run.

He's respectable, but still partisan and too far left.

He's ignorant of what the voters need in Oregon. So, no, he should not run. He does not have the expertise to even be a senator.

I think if managed properly by the Super. The budgets are workable with fewer employees multi tasking and wearing more than one hat!Any buisness can benefit with improved efficiency!!

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.

If it is a law and you break it regardless of what it refers to that is breaking the law- which by definition is criminal. If you put your pet in a situation that is unsafe that is your responsibility and ergo you are a bad pet owner. Pets are like our kids, it's our job to keep them safe.

yes because they are putting their dog as well as people with leashed pets at risk. Not all dogs like other dogs and not all people are comfortable with strange dogs running up to them.

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?
