The problem with government bureaucrats is that they always think they are the solution. They are never going to vote themselves less money or power and once they get their grubby little hands on both, they will never return it to the people. To them self defense means self reliance means they have less control. They may have lost the super majority this time, but they also neutered the power of the walk-out, so I don't see anything good coming for Oregonians out of this legislature any time soon.Saving the tax payers dollars is the only way. Public defendants cos money too. How's the state senate and house looking?
It would be a great step in the right direction to pass legislation that will allow people to defend themselves against these criminals.
