Honestly I voted for Measure 110 because I believe arresting and locking people up for possession of a small amount of drugs who aren't otherwise breaking any laws (such as DUI) is a waste of law enforcement resources. I never could have imagined the death, distruction and crime it would cause.

No People that use drugs don't want help they want more drugs if they pretend to want help they don't go to jail and are able to get more drugs and laugh at the system

Fentanyl is already illegal and it carries the possibility of death when consumed. If the real possibility of death, as well as seeing friends and others dying doesn't stop people from using it, then nothing will. Removing the fentanyl from our hospitals, secure our boarders and remove the threat.

Never dshould have passed to decriminailze drugs and reversing it now will not help,many peple are too addicted to get help now and the only thing to stop fentanyl is to close the border, democrats do not want to do that as they are hoping to allow them to vote.

This has been a political joke. It was morality signaling with intent to never follow thru or create the supportive infrastructure. Continual setbacks in implementation, esp. the admin side. + police refused giving citations in 110 leading to recovery, cause big mad about funding. INTENTIONAL FLOP$

Because securing our borders is the only real solution that will help the fentanyl crisis.

Charlie Kirk was a man of faith and gave his very life for the values I stand for. He was a voice heard around the world

He doesn’t deserve it. He is a nobody and spewed hateful rhetoric.

He was a racist, white supremacist, and very divisive figure. The political violence that ended his lift is a terrible thing but it’s something he helped foment. This is the most ridiculous idea I can imagine.

I never heard of this guy before he was murdered, but it looks like he had a track record of saying awful things, and fomented the conditions in society that led to his demise. That's very tragic, but there are other people more deserving of a day.

Though this is a tragic incident and a terrible time of violence in our country, Mr. Kirk was not an elected official. We should honor his family and respect them in many ways and I certainly have sympathy for his family. But this does not warrant aday in Oregon devoted to his name or his politics.

A highly partisan figure in American politics should never be given a day of observance for any reason. It should be acknowledge that violence is not acceptable in any form for any reason, but it should not be honored and given Publicity because of it.

He was not a government figure, and while I don’t condone the violence that took his life, he called on his supporters to bail out others that committed violence against elected government officials.

Mr. Kirk was too controversial and not a hero.

This guy was homophobic, racist, and anti women’s rights. While I think his murder is wrong, he is not a hero. He encouraged hatred towards people he didn’t agree with their lifestyles in his “teachings”. I don’t think Jesus would support him…he preached love for everyone!

We didn't create a Melissa Hortmann day and she was a good person. Charlie Kirk's rhetoric was about racism, sexism, mysoginism, and divisiveness. He was not a good person and represented everything that was NOT Christian.

Sure! Let's give kudos to the shooter! NOT! What about the 5 officers who just got shot in Pennsylvania? Should we have a day for that too?? Absolutely NOT necessary.
