Because there needs to be control on guns and gun sales. Why does KESQ advertise guns of distinction on their evening news, I guess the station owner is fine with 146 murders this year already. This tacky disturbing ad should be removed. Horrible message to allow.

They should be able to for the pro-gun aspect of it all. Some cities like Prineville or smaller country towns are better at teaching and raising their kids with using the guns right and what they are intended for safely, other cities where they have more shootings should be ban guns to a degree

At the rate people are being gunned down, any municipality should be able to take protective steps. It isn't about feeling safe, it's about being more safe.

What's wrong with your logic is that we have something called a US Constitution. The city has no authority to be making up their own rules that go against our civil rights.

Giving gun stores more access to personal and medical info on a potential buyer is long overdue and an excellent way to address the issue. Trampling on gun owner second amendment rights so others can feel safe is just unconstitutional.

Law abiding citizens are protecting their families with their guns. I wouldn't shop anywhere I wasn't allowed to carry. For the exact reason of the Safeway shooting. I can't even imagine getting stuck in a store with a shooter and my kids without protection.

Our system is OK the way it is. Criminals don't use legally purchased guns that can be traced. So tighter regulation is not going to stop the problem.

They need to focus on local issues, not issues that are already being debated at the state level. They also shouldn't be endorcing measures that are unconstitutional such as 114. The Supreme Court has already ruled that most everything the City is in favor of will not pass constitutional scrutiny.

Lets work on where the problem lies, community, mental health, enforcing current regulation. In many cases people had guns illegally, therefore more regulation isn't the answer but helping to enforce current laws.

The CONSTITUTION clearly states people have the right to keep and bear arms that SHALL NOT BE INFRINGED. What new law is a criminal going to all of a sudden decide to follow. Its already illegal to kill people yet people still do it. The heaviest gun controlled cities have the worst gun crime rates

They say it will be unlawful to carry a loaded gun in public. Does this mean the person with a concealed carry primit have to unload their gun when they leave the house to go out.

Leave it to Feds/states. Rules we have don't stop criminals and people with other issues. If cities want to do something take a look at mental health issues in their areas.

Regulating the law biding citizen from owning or purchasing guns and making the law biding citizen register their weapons will do nothing but regulate law biding citizens. Making the law biding citizen apply for a permit is unconstitutional. The 2nd amendment is my permit. Regulate lawless criminals

We already have back ground checks, you have to show photo ID, and be fingerprinted, along with being a resident of this state. It's not a gun problem, it's a people problem. Enforce the laws that we already have, and hold people accountable.

The federal government is chipping away at our rights, we don't need cities to try to also, Gun control will not help, criminals or people who want to do harm do not follow laws. Make them accountable, enforce drug laws. fund and respect the police, let them do their jab!

NO! Gun laws do nothing to help, in fact they create problems. New York's gun free zones are crazy wrong! How can anyone think that a criminal or a mentally ill 20 year old will abide by any law?? Kids that dont know God or a disciplining Father is the problem. Dem D A,s are another problem!

There is an anti-American movement that's gained momentum over the past few years. And with the discovery of mass corruption, such as in Minneapolis, those profiting from those activities are going to fight back, hard.

Masked secret police roaming the streets with no accountability would have never been accepted in America in the past. If they themselves weren't ashamed of there actions, they wouldn't be wearing masks. Our democracy is spiraling the drain!

Maduro's drug trade, is an "Act of War" against the US. The military strikes and arrest of Maduro, are Self-Defense. There will be more, and more American lives will be saved.

If you elect a criminal who thumbs his nose at our laws, you can expect him to ignore international law as well. I can't believe in this country elected him the first time. Doing it a second time shows you how ignorant people are in our country. It's embarrassing.
