Yes but its only part of the solution. The left does everything backwards! When you take God out of America guess who people follow? When family values are discouraged, anarchy arrives! The un Godly act un Godly! These are the core issues and the left supports all these un Godly positions!

Government never solves problems I doubt they will get this right. Enforce laws and bring back death penalty with Public Hangings thats a good start

It won't make a dent until we have reasonable gun laws.

We cannot "solve" gun crime until we address the material inequity, the horrible healthcare system, and the alienation inherent to late stage capitalism. We also need to get rid of ALL weapons of war in this country.

They are NOT banning guns from EVERYONE. You can still own guns. But why do you need ARs and other large capacity guns? They are not taking our other guns away. They say "you can't have" so that is what you want?

The problem is that ppl buy and own weapons of war--weapons who's only purpose is to kill a lot of people quickly. Mental health is a separate problem.

Hmmm Oregon laws are exactly what the fed wants Weapons of War are not for sale anywhere in the US legally Unless you are one of the 1% who gets a permit to own one. Put away the Coolaid.

Only criminals do that not law abiding citizens so banning guns from everyone is not the answer

Trump is a clear danger to Democracy. I don't think MAGA people actually listen to his "speeches"/rambling offensive tirades of many half-truths.. but also easily disproven outright lies. How anyone can support him at this point, is bizarre.

I voted for Trump because of his policies. Harris has none, just the same terrible Biden policies.

This type of tax will always be passed on to we consumers. Oregonians already pay an income tax. It's another heavy burden on Oregon consumers that will be passed on to us - the increased costs is nothing but a hidden tax.

This is a sneaky way to get sales tax in place and will add as much as 15% to the consumer's cost for retail purchases.
