You have to have some safety rules. But like Shiffrin who skied yesterday in the parrallel slalom, it is up to the individual. She has previously not skied in that event because she felt it is dangerous, But she did it to help Team USA win a medal. Alas, they didn't, but it wasn't for lack of trying

Emilie Dauch

No- the mountain seems to cater to out of control skiers and boarders who zoom dangerously close to downhill skiers, sometimes even brushing against them. Slow skiing zones are not enforced. Other resorts follow a "15 foot rule" which is the space that is supposed to be give to others.

Can they do anything about the tree wells up at my bachelor?

I think it's up to the individual. There's a risk to these sports.

Winter sports have always been dangerous. If a person wants to take that chance its up to them.

j sanders

Almost all sports have an element of danger. The participant is always taking a risk from which no one can protect them.

Rick Allen

You have to take responsibility for your own actions. We do not need or want the government or business telling us what to do or not to do!

Michael Miller

If a person is willing to participate in risky sports they generally should shoulder the risks themselves.

Kenneth Emmrich

When you engage in a high risk activity you have to expect that there is no guarantee for safety. The individual needs to accept the responsibilities and negative consequences of those activities.

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.

Janice Adair

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.

Lisa Alexander

He was a racist person who spread hate.

Jim Terry

Need I really explain

Jane CommunityMember

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.

Robert Spaet

Irony: “It's worth it to have a cost of, unfortunately, some gun deaths every single year, so that we can have the Second Amendment to protect our other God-given rights…” Charlie Kirk 2023

k san

Absolutely NOT!! He was a racist extraordinaire and spread divisive speech and ideas.

Byron Barclay

Because his MO is actually deceptive & decisive!

Martie King

He is not a hero.

Linda Spaet

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.

Robert Spaet

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.

Alex GERRITY

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.

Laurie Maholland

Mr. Kirk was too controversial and not a hero.

celeste carico

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!

Gerald Wonnacott

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.

Priscilla Smith

Absolutely not!

Shannon Gamble

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.
