I already keep them locked up, except for the one I carry. It makes sense

I would totally agree. Anything to keep guns safe from kids of ANY age. Whether it be in a store or home, it just makes sense in this scary day and age.

Why would you deny gun owners their safety. I say lockup liberals and we would all be safer.

******I am a liberal Democrat woman of color. I have a gun to protect myself and a gun to exercise a right equal to voting. An intruder will not have his or her gun locked. Nor will I.

Teach children at an early age about gun safety. If your gun is locked away it does you no good if you need it to protect your family.

My fire arms are secured by the locks on my home. That is all they will ever be secured by.

We don't need another gun law. Criminals won't wait for me to unlock my gun before they act. This is absolutely ridiculous.

If I need to use a gun, I need it to be loaded and accessible NOW!

If someone breaks into my house with me living out in the country what will I say "time out, let me go to my safe and get my firearm". This is CRAZY. People who have no gun experience making rules.

Too many unenforceable laws on the books already. Leave our 2nd amendment alone. Commie bastards.

If you're a responsible gun owner, your guns should be kept in a safe place where no one has random access to them. Pretty common knowledge. Has no one ever taken hunter safety course?

Libs/Dems often tell me "whats the point of having a gun if you lock it up, youll never get your gun out in time if your home is invaded" Thanks for pointing out 'storage laws' would cause more harm.

Not until the powers that be can write a gun storage law that is reasonable, logical, enforceable, and proven to be effective!

Because it's not rediculasly over reaching. The Communist bastards are still not addressing the real problem, MENTAL ISSUES AND ILLNESSES. It isn't the fault of the lawabiding citizens.

If there is a gun in the house everyone should be taught gun safety. Locking them up prevents using it if someone breaks in with intent to harm.

If someone breaks into my house, I'm going to need it right then and there. I'm not going through the time to unlock my gun to protect myself and family.

There's no way to enforce such a ridiculous law. A locked up gun is a useless gun. I pray that no one ever has to find that out the hard way.

How are they going to enforce it? Walk into every single house in Oregon to check that guns are secured? NOT MY HOUSE!

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!
