Oregon voters appear poised to support new gun control regulations:
The Oregonian/OregonLive poll
Published: Oct. 04, 2022, 6:00 a.m.
By Beth Slovic | The Oregonian/OregonLive
Oregonians appear poised to adopt some of the strictest gun
regulations in the country, according to a new poll commissioned by
The Oregonian/OregonLive.
A slight majority of likely Oregon voters polled, 51%, said they would
vote this November for Measure 114, which would require a background
check, safety training and a permit to acquire a firearm. If approved,
the measure also would require that police maintain a firearms
database and would outlaw ammunition magazines that hold more than 10 rounds.

They break down the numbers by: party, gender, education,
residence, etc. It's about what you would expect. There's more support
for this in the Portland metropolitan area than there is in the rest
of the state. There are also more people in the Portland metropolitan
area than the rest of the state.
This is potentially good news for our Democratic candidate for governor. The polls show her running neck and neck with our, more or
less traditional, Republican candidate. "Machine gun Betsy" is running
a distant third. Seriously, she does own one and she used to be proud
of the name and her perfect score with the NRA. She's essentially
running as a pro-choice Republican. She's doing what her sponsors
wanted her to do. She's drawing off enough support to give the
Republican a chance. Personally, I don't trust anyone who claims they
can solve all our problems and that they are the only one who can fix
any of them. Both of the Republicans are making this claim. According
to their ads they're running against our, unpopular with just about everyone, outgoing governor, which would be a good trick if they can
manage it.

To give you some idea of what people in Portland regularly see in the news. There were only 2 fatal stabbings downtown on Friday. The
second article refers to this first stabbing. "Old town" is the
eastern half of downtown. Portland's traditional homeless shelters
have been located there for as long as anyone here can remember.

A man was killed in a stabbing Friday on a street corner in Old Town
after several men started arguing, Portland police and witnesses said.
Officers arrived at West Burnside and Northwest Third Avenue about
11:30 a.m. and learned one man had died and another man had fled
moments earlier, said police spokesperson Sgt. Kevin Allen.
The sergeant dispatching the call hailed for all available patrol
cars, Allen said. Dispatch records showed 15 units on scene.
“Officers began a very quick investigation,†he said. “They were
able to catch up with a suspect a couple of blocks to the north. … Detectives are not currently looking for any other suspects.â€

Police are investigating two fatal stabbing in Old Town in nine hours
on Friday.
A Friday shooting that left a man in critical condition in Southeast Portland is also under investigation.
In the most recent stabbing, the Portland Police Bureau said officers responded to Northwest Broadway and Northwest Couch Street just after
8:30 p.m. on Sept. 30. There they found an injured victim who was
declared dead by arriving paramedics.
Police announced Saturday morning that Kalil C. Ford, 20, was arrested

weapon.
According to the police, this was the 71st homicide case for Portland
in 2022.
Before that, 11:28 a.m. on Friday, Central Precinct officers responded
to a report of a stabbing at West Burnside Street and Northwest Third Avenue. When officers arrived, they located an injured victim.

The Oregonian/OregonLive.
A slight majority of likely Oregon voters polled, 51%, said they would
vote this November for Measure 114, which would require a background

the measure also would require that police maintain a firearms

We already have a "red flag" law. Like most gun control
measures I wouldn't expect this one to do much to staunch the flow of >>>>>> blood. This one creates a lot of paperwork and treats gun buyers like >>>>>> criminals.
My brother and I took a required hunter safety course when we
were kids. I don't think we were helped or harmed by it. My experience >>>>>> is that gun safety instructors, as a group, are the most dangerous gun >>>>>> owners around. Ours demonstrated pulling the bullet out of a 22 shell >>>>>> and firing it by heating the primer in the classroom. Safety
instructors are followed closely by the clowns who do a lot of
preaching about gun safety without actually practicing what they
preach. When I lived in Eugene a bunch of sheriff's deputies went out >>>>>> on a hunting trip with one of their dispatchers. She didn't come back >>>>>> because she ended up getting shot in the head. Those are the people >>>>>> who will be issuing the permits.

Wise words, for someone who enjoys being an iconoclast... I was a drop out on my hunter safety class, and waited a few months until I was 16, when the class wasn't required for us big boys....
Last Sat. the San Luis PD had a gun buy back program. They were giving out $200, $100, and $50, grocery coupons ... By the time I got there at noon, the coupons were gone... They had collected 209 guns, including six assault rifles (?), several dozen
stamps", and no good for non-edibles? Since I like to sleep late, the coupon particulars remain uncertain.... I was an example of "snooze, & you loose...."I end up wondering how many California communists used this boost

to their budget as an opportunity to buy a better gun? Were you planning
on spending your ill gotten gains on wine, women and song? Or were you
just going to waste it? It sounds like you need to get your butt in gear
earlier if you want to have any chance of beating your fellow citizens
to this pot of gold. lol
TB
They weren't handing out "real money", just grocery coupons, so women, song, and gun upgrades were not possible, even had I arisen earlier.... I'm not sure if the coupons would work for alcohol at the super market? They might have been like "food
