The term gun safety is just another term for gun control. And the only people gun control measures control are law biding citizens. Gun control will never regulate a lawless citizen who is hell bound to commit a crime.

It's dishonest to reframe the issue as "gun safety" when what is clearly meant is "gun control." The general population is abhorrently ignorant of laws already in place. I find it disturbing that so many people are afraid of an inanimate object rather than the person wielding the object.

Irresponsible people wont pay any attention to them while responsible people already practice them.

This probably wouldn't be an issue if the gun laws that were already on the books were enforced. There is no "gun show" loophole as promoted by the media. Enforce the laws we have and keep guns out of the hands of the mentally ill via "honest" background checks. Don't punish the law abiding citizen.

there is an agenda to disarm the populace and the media and the democrat party are one and the same, so the subject gets air time and propagandized

Gun control only hurts honest citizens, it does nothing to stop criminals. Chicago has the the most strict gun controls and has the highest gun violence. More good people with guns, yes in schools to stop bad people from killing, period. All these school shooters could have been stopped. Strength.

When will the liberals...Democrats understand that this is a people problem not a gun problem? If someone wants to do harm, they will get a gun and of course will not follow any law. Start holding people accountable, bring back drug laws and uphold the police!

Are you kidding? Oregon has made it very hard to purchase a firearm with a law that is so poorly written a 5th grader would blush. It's pathetic and one more example of unconstitutional BS from Oregon.

Gun control does not mean "they" are going to come and take away your guns. If you buy and register your guns properly and lawfully, there should be no reason for "them" to take them away. Regulate what can be sold, yes. You don't need an AK or AR to hunt with.

Why should 3-4 countys tell the rest of the state what to do.

M-114 will do nothing to keep guns from the hands of criminals. M-114 only works to further prevent the law biding citizen from their legal right to purchase a firearm

Unconstitutional. “Assault Weapons” a term that the ATF has struggled to define and most modern countries define as select fire aka full auto. Red flag laws still let people drive vehicles, own knives and other deadly weapons. Blame the bad people not a piece of metal!

Shouldn't even be up for discussion. Move somewhere else if you are afraid of armed law abiding citizens.

All this measure does is it makes it harder for law abiding citizens to own firearms. No matter how hard we try to keep firearms away from those who shouldn't have them, those people will always figure out how to get them. I believe crime would be better deterred if open carry were legal.

Open carry is legal. Conceal carry without a permit is illegal.

Law empowers and gives carte blanche to police to decide who gets a firearm. Which means marginalized LGBT+ and POC will be denied in favor of right wing extremists. Would also increase policing in POC communities via magazine ban & also create a database that would target marginalized communities.

Measure 114 has several concerning components that likely violate the US constitution, cause an undue burden on the local police and is essentially a money/tax black hole.

It would be the toughest gun law in the United States and as well seen in Los Angeles, Chicago and New York City and look at Australia. Tough Gun laws do not work I am not against the background checks, I think that religion needs to stay out of politics and use their money to spread Christianity

Government needs to stop trying to destroy our Constitutional rights. 114 is the Democrats means to deny guns to those that "don't pass our tests". Taking a shooting class is just another tax and has nothing to do with gun owning rights. It is not governments business to know who owns guns.

How about locking up criminals instead? They have no regard for a "Law" in the first place.

No absolutely not. The constitution is what it is to keep unconstitutional things like this from happening. 114 is in violation of the second amendment and would do harm not any good. It will not keep criminals from getting guns, it will hamper honest people. Backwards thinking.

Measure 114 is unconstitutional. It should never have made it onto the ballot.

When will people understand that the violence is a people probLem and not a gun problem. Until people are held accountable, charged and not realesed early or without bail, nothing will change. Decrimalizing drugs contributes to the problem. Too much liberal, left policies.
