Why should 3-4 countys tell the rest of the state what to do.

M-114 will do nothing to keep guns from the hands of criminals. M-114 only works to further prevent the law biding citizen from their legal right to purchase a firearm

Unconstitutional. “Assault Weapons” a term that the ATF has struggled to define and most modern countries define as select fire aka full auto. Red flag laws still let people drive vehicles, own knives and other deadly weapons. Blame the bad people not a piece of metal!

Shouldn't even be up for discussion. Move somewhere else if you are afraid of armed law abiding citizens.

All this measure does is it makes it harder for law abiding citizens to own firearms. No matter how hard we try to keep firearms away from those who shouldn't have them, those people will always figure out how to get them. I believe crime would be better deterred if open carry were legal.

Open carry is legal. Conceal carry without a permit is illegal.

Law empowers and gives carte blanche to police to decide who gets a firearm. Which means marginalized LGBT+ and POC will be denied in favor of right wing extremists. Would also increase policing in POC communities via magazine ban & also create a database that would target marginalized communities.

Measure 114 has several concerning components that likely violate the US constitution, cause an undue burden on the local police and is essentially a money/tax black hole.

It would be the toughest gun law in the United States and as well seen in Los Angeles, Chicago and New York City and look at Australia. Tough Gun laws do not work I am not against the background checks, I think that religion needs to stay out of politics and use their money to spread Christianity

Government needs to stop trying to destroy our Constitutional rights. 114 is the Democrats means to deny guns to those that "don't pass our tests". Taking a shooting class is just another tax and has nothing to do with gun owning rights. It is not governments business to know who owns guns.

How about locking up criminals instead? They have no regard for a "Law" in the first place.

No absolutely not. The constitution is what it is to keep unconstitutional things like this from happening. 114 is in violation of the second amendment and would do harm not any good. It will not keep criminals from getting guns, it will hamper honest people. Backwards thinking.

Measure 114 is unconstitutional. It should never have made it onto the ballot.

When will people understand that the violence is a people probLem and not a gun problem. Until people are held accountable, charged and not realesed early or without bail, nothing will change. Decrimalizing drugs contributes to the problem. Too much liberal, left policies.

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 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!
