I'm unsure, possibly Benjamin Franklin, said that once we begin giving up our liberties in the name of safety is the day democracy begins to die. Okay, so the words aren't 100% and I'm unsure who is "quoted",but we are headed in that direction. Im notcomfortable with camera etc4 poss future threat

Because we need it to assist with catching the criminals to keep our community safer. Witnesses are afraid to come forward, and the police are short handed.

The govt has facial recognition of all the domestic terrorists in Portland Or. but won't prosecute them, but will go after innocent mothers at school board meetings. Go figure, you may be the next one arrested. Your own words from three months ago. "Privacy concerns and government over reach!" LGB

Better for our air quality, benefits Oregon agriculture vs. Chinese corporations, and they are the real thing.

I am allergic to pine trees

Almost no Christmas trees are pine trees.

Artificial because it's easier, and definitely cheaper. We have had the same articial tree for about 10 years. I refuse to pay $100 or more for a real Christmas Tree. We stopped buying real Christmas trees when it cost us $50 for one. Now the Christmas trees are $100 or more.

Ik its a tradition but if u cant keep ir tree healthy and alive outside dont cut it down jus to have it up for a month

I really would love a real tree, but have learned to love artifical trees to keep alergies under control.

For most of my life, I was an avid real tree person; however, in my later years, I find my artificial tree very easy to deal with, so I am a convert.

Real ones dry out if you don't water them often and the needles come off

There's something magical about a sprinkling of snow on Christmas 😊 And heavy enough snow means snow angels, snowmen, and snowball fights! ❄️

Belinda Kitchen

The older I get - since I don't ski any more - snow just represents work for me, so if I never saw another snow flake, it would be just fine with me!
