TY Gov Brown. Wearing a mask isn't a political statement, it's an IQ test. The sooner we all wear one, the sooner we get back to normal. BOYCOTTING Sunriver; not a single mask there but COVID is !!!

People should be masking because they're decent human beings but too many still aren't. Unfortunately it has to be enforced. Thank you Governor Brown.

You bet. Everyone has a responsibility to protect themselves and others. It's a no-brainer. People who feel wearing masks violate their personal freedoms should consider the right to stay alive.

Who will die in Deschutes County next? We all have responsibility in protecting our community members. If businesses are to remain open everyone needs to make-up and bring covid 19 cases down. Simple!

Masks keep a person's breath from infecting other people. This virus can kill people, or permanently damage their health. Wearing a mask shows you care about the health of other people.

It is THE ONLY WAY we can get rid of this and back to business and school. Being asked to wear a mask is in no way an infringement on your rights=BS. As a member of society we have responsibilities!

People who do not wear mask could be giving other individuals the virus. If it can be traced to them I think they should be charged with manslaughter.

More government overreach. I understand people are scared but it’s not a serious enough plandemic to justify any of this. Swine flu was much worse, SARS was exactly the same with slight differences.

Unless you are wearing an N95 and are fit tested to ensure it fits, you're wasting your time. This is all a control tactic. A fine for not wearing something that doesn't work is unamerican.

Safe guards should only be enforced on those that present symptoms, not the healthy. Numskels politicians need to follow proper medical precautions that have been used and proven in health for decades

They don't want Kings, they want their authoritarianism back, which is what they didn't get when their failed appointed candidate who never got a single primary vote, was attempted to be installed as their continued fascist leader.

The 2025 document, which took years to create, says it all. We are losing the rule of law and our rights under this administration. I believe Trump is a puppet for the far right conservatives who want to alter or destroy our democracy.

I just take witness to who join these protests. I know very soon the majority will die of old age, the rest are lazy and allergic to responsibility and accountability. So they will tear each other apart. Let them expose themselves.

Where were these 'no kings' protests during the Obama/Biden admin? There was fascism and borderline dictatorship policies being pushed (green new deal, electric car mandates, gun confiscations, suppression of free speech, etc) and silence. Trump is not a king, so stop acting like a serf.

Even a friendly dog with excellent recall can cause real problems for the owner walking their reactive dog on leash; a dog running free is highly exciting to other dogs; it's not fair for the owner of the reactive dog to have to deal with that overstimulation in a "leash only" area.

I recently I commented that it is not fair. But your comment makes me feel incorrect. I have had a reactive dog before and I feel that your comment is valid.

If it is a law and you break it regardless of what it refers to that is breaking the law- which by definition is criminal. If you put your pet in a situation that is unsafe that is your responsibility and ergo you are a bad pet owner. Pets are like our kids, it's our job to keep them safe.

yes because they are putting their dog as well as people with leashed pets at risk. Not all dogs like other dogs and not all people are comfortable with strange dogs running up to them.

There are laws and rules for a reason. No one should think that laws and rules don't apply to them. If they want their dog off leash then go out in the woods where no one else is or to a fenced dog park.

There are leash laws for good reason. On a side note Bend Parks and Recreation need to put up signs at dog parks reminding owners that they are liable for damages their dogs cause to other dogs or humans under Oregon law. Bend PD treat dog parks like they are outside of their jurisdiction.

A bad dog owner is someone who is not able to care of the animal or mistreats the animal. The person is just not considerate of others and will break the law for whatever reason they may have. *if you have an aggressive dog it is the OWNERS responsibility to keep the dog under control anywhere

There are many factors, if your dog has great recall and obeys to stay in a heal being off leash is fine as the dog is still in verbal control. Dogs that do not listen should not be off leash.

No, that's too big a generalization. However, those owners should never let their pet off-leash in those areas.

Maybe there pet is trusted and not reactive. Why does a none relative happy pet need to be restricted?
