Would you favor alcohol and tobacco companies sponsoring school events? Thought not. Guns and bullets are in the same category. Former Nosler employees and former Mt. View High students involved in recent murders in Bend. Not good role models for our kids.

Leslie Knight

Advertisements at schools supporting any kind of weapon related items are not appropriate. Just ask the kids at Parkland, but you won't be able to reach them all...

Well DUH, Ammo, alcohol..... We can do better!

Naomi Sherpa

Advertising bullets have no place in school

Keeley Moore

So far 77% agree with Gabe. Maybe liberalism needs to move away.

David Kline

Ammunition and firearms manufacturers sponsoring school events is like Ted Bundy chaperoning the homecoming dance.

sandra zollman

Oh grow up. Maybe they should stop serving meat in schools also? You need to be concerned what the liberals are teaching kids.

Gabe West

People should get your kids out of the woke school district

sandra zollman

Gosh, I wonder where CB moved here from.

Gabe, please move to some backwoods state where they would appreciate your awful opinions.

This is flat out ridiculous. Nosler is a long time local, family-owned employer, with a great history of supporting the community and it's high school sports teams. The ultra liberal "Bendifornians" need to find something worthwhile to bitch about because this is not it.

sandra zollman

Amen. Couldn't agree more.

Susan Anderson

Nosler is a family on business that has supported schools for years before there were very many sponsors, they also supplied excellent jobs for people when they were very few employers in Bend we should be grateful to them not hateful! Many guns are used for sporting events , competition and fun.

Keeley Moore

Because guns are not bad. They are a tool. People being irresponsible with guns are the problem. Let Nosler give our student athletes help!!!

Please KTVZ post the whole issue rather than this blanket question in that Sponsors have been giving money to the community for a very long time and if some newbie has a problem with the sponsors; they should do their homework beforehand rather than wanting a blanket question to the public. Sheesh

Jim Hipp

Get a grip people! Your getting free money to support your kids events! Are you willing to pick up the slack?

Gabe West

Parents get your kids out of the woke school district and home school them

sandra zollman

They should be grateful for any sponsorship.

Andrew Shooks

Nosler is a long-time, family owned local company that has made great contributions to our community over the decades. They primarily manufacture high grade sporting ammunition. Thank them for their sponsorship and move on. This complaint is ridiculous.

Nosler is an excellent business and consistently supportive of our community. Maybe they should consider a limited release .556 with rainbow a rainbow tracer? That should calm the sign holding group down.

Mark Mueller

Bendifornians!!! I like it, that says it all!

I am glad that we were Blue over all on the West coast. Those flyover states have too much say.

I prefer metering to increasing the number of lanes. More than one lane makes roundabouts much more dangerous to navigate, especially with drivers who are not locals and do not understand how roundabouts work. 2 lanes = many more accidents plus 2 lanes need to be a much larger diameter for safety.

You're literally bumper to bumper from the Bill Healy bridge. The people from the Old Mill Never Cease coming.

If it weren’t so maddening, our City counselors would make for a cast in a Monty Python show. They befuddle themselves with ludicrous ideas and foist them onto the taxpayers. Bend is becoming a laughing stock to outsiders and a source of continual angst for the residents.

SUE ABERNATHY

Isn't that why they put the round about in because stop lights were going to cost to much????? Just saying.

sara kreps

doesn't this defeat the purpose of a roundabout? might as well make it a regular intersection with lights.

Dave Krajczynski

If people used the roundabout correctly and actually filled in the gaps and went when there was an opening it would flow just fine. People wait for a bus sized gap before they go.

Jeff Sanders

The people coming from the Old Mill Never Cease coming. Traffic is backed up to Bill Healy bridge everyday. At least in the winter.

Kathy Brown

Make a LARGER round-about!! A stop light will only make it worse!!

Chris Gonzales

A roundabout's primary purpose in traffic management is to improve safety and traffic flow, resulting in less congestion and fewer accidents compared to traditional stoplight intersections. Key words: Flow, less congestion and Stoplights. Now they want to add Stoplights!!! City waste at its Best!

Latterdaysaint

The point of the roundabouts was to get rid of lights

Fletcher Jackson

What's the point of having a light at a roundabout? The point of a roundabout is to get rid of the lights. Widen it and start growing for the people coming here. The way bend builds, everything is obsolete by the time it's done.

Tim Walker

I drive through this around about several times everyday and it is never an issue very rarely. Is it an issue? The reason they put roundabouts in for the first place was to get rid of stop lights and stop signs
