As long as they are not electric! Also as long as they are needed and not just a luxury. Police cars should be in top shape and have the latest technology.

Not until the police start responding to all calls. Are the new cars going to be electric?🤔

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.

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...

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

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

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

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.

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.

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

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.

State regulations and taxes are the problem. The people who can afford to build apartments are big money. Reduce zoning regulations, property taxes and get rid of Urban Growth Boundaries to expand land use and create competition. Then rents would go down. Government over reach is the problem period.

There also should be no such thing as Vacation Rentals... JUST FOR RENT Signs.

We moved to Bend, after our town of Paradise, ca. Burned down to buy a home and got priced out immediately! We are now "Apartment Dwellers", that feel somewhat without a stake in this "Great Community!"

It's due to greed. When Bend was still Bend the rents were fair.
