Most of our taxes are going to Schools that are no longer required to make sure students are proficient in math, reading, writing and comprehension. Why are we paying so much and getting nothing in return.

More and more levies and bonds. Stop voting for all these additional taxes and the tax bills won't raise by so much.

Yes and it is outrages! It went up $664. 60 over last year, for a total of $8089.85 That is $664.00 per month, just for property tax. I think Police and fire dept. need more money, but it should come out of this outrages amount not more taxes. I vote no on any increase.

We must stop voting for the tax and spend party of liberals over and over for city council and Mayor. No more parks, no more roundabouts. It's outrageous how property taxes are going up. We need more responsible people in office.

Yes, almost a 10% increase. Education and education bonds comprise 50%! I hope the public thinks it's worth it.

Charlie Kirk was a man of faith and gave his very life for the values I stand for. He was a voice heard around the world

He doesn’t deserve it. He is a nobody and spewed hateful rhetoric.

He was a racist, white supremacist, and very divisive figure. The political violence that ended his lift is a terrible thing but it’s something he helped foment. This is the most ridiculous idea I can imagine.

I never heard of this guy before he was murdered, but it looks like he had a track record of saying awful things, and fomented the conditions in society that led to his demise. That's very tragic, but there are other people more deserving of a day.

Though this is a tragic incident and a terrible time of violence in our country, Mr. Kirk was not an elected official. We should honor his family and respect them in many ways and I certainly have sympathy for his family. But this does not warrant aday in Oregon devoted to his name or his politics.

A highly partisan figure in American politics should never be given a day of observance for any reason. It should be acknowledge that violence is not acceptable in any form for any reason, but it should not be honored and given Publicity because of it.

He was not a government figure, and while I don’t condone the violence that took his life, he called on his supporters to bail out others that committed violence against elected government officials.

Mr. Kirk was too controversial and not a hero.

This guy was homophobic, racist, and anti women’s rights. While I think his murder is wrong, he is not a hero. He encouraged hatred towards people he didn’t agree with their lifestyles in his “teachings”. I don’t think Jesus would support him…he preached love for everyone!

We didn't create a Melissa Hortmann day and she was a good person. Charlie Kirk's rhetoric was about racism, sexism, mysoginism, and divisiveness. He was not a good person and represented everything that was NOT Christian.

Sure! Let's give kudos to the shooter! NOT! What about the 5 officers who just got shot in Pennsylvania? Should we have a day for that too?? Absolutely NOT necessary.
