freedom of speech - he's allowed to have an opinion. I don't think he made light of Kirk's death and I'm happy when he came back on he apologized and was human about it.

Douglas Kratky

Absolutely!!

Rebeca Melendez

Freedom of speech

D Mora

Mr kimmel made no bad remark about Death of Mr Kirk What he said was the shooter has been reported to be a maga supporter and this should not be used to make this a political war. A man is Dead and an idiot with a gun killed him. Human error not political error. Just sad. Trump as usual is clueless

Jill Walkowiak

Free speech is of most importance during this time with this President , as he continues to remove our RIGHTS with very little pushback

Martin Garment

We must protect free speech and stop presidential overreach and unconstitutional actions.

Patty Lasky

It is critical to protect free speech.

Richard Morales

Trump cannot be allowed to control the media or our right to free speech.

ann adams

We have freedom of speech in this country.

Dave Wandelt

We still have a first amendment. Disney stations should know better.

Trump Lied About Everything

He didn't say anything wrong, it was the TRUTH and what he said was way less hateful than what Kirk had said many many times. Oh, and the constitution.

thomas white

Free speech. Trumps fascism.

Mary Boville

Freedom of speech!!!

Laura

Democracy-free speech. We don't need a thin skinned president that thinks he is a king and should be blindly obeyed.

Stephen Rocha

This guy said it perfectly: He disrespected Kirk and his family. It wasn’t about free speech, it was about being a jerk and thinking he could get away with it. Now money talks and ABC and Disney are to chicken to stand their ground. Simply pathetic

Manuel Diaz

Misinformation disinformation

Bill

No man should have to grovel for his job because a convicted felon gets his feelings hurt. Late night TV has been poking fun at the president's over many years. The owners of the stations have to kiss the mans butt to get the approval for the deals they are working on. Shamefull

Tom Benedetti

he is not funny, he is divisive, and deliberately misled his audience on a very serious topic. It’s supposed to be a comedy show, what is wrong with ABC/Disney.

Cliff Williams

He disrespected Kirk and his family. It wasn’t about free speech, it was about being a jerk and thinking he could get away with it. Now money talks and ABC and Disney are to chicken to stand their ground. Simply pathetic!

Because the trump administration claims to support free speech unconditionally while trying to prevent people they don't agree with from exercising that right. Hypocrites like that have no business trying to silence free speech in others, just because they dislike them.

Max

Trump had nothing to do with his getting fired.

Ken Satterfield

He should have never been taken off! Overreaction to a tragic event

Max

He was removed because he was costing ABC huge financial losses.

0571953

Freedom of speech and freedom of choice and to live our options. Putin isn't in charge in US and Trump isn't in control of me!

Max

You just said communist rule is better. That's really sad.

Karla Elliott

It’s about the first amendment. It’s about democracy. And it’s about standing up to this fake king and his corrupt government

Max

The 1st Amendment only applies to the government, not your employee. Also we do not have a democracy, we have a Constitutional Republic. You are not knowledgeable of what you are commenting about.

Toasty

Let the liberals/socialists/democrats have their little echo chamber late at night. We've got work in the morning.

pat long

Should have never been taken off he’s entitled to free speech just like trump is

lordFRZA

We have to protect everyone’s First Amendment rights, Especially if they are different from ours because if we don’t, we may be next on their list

Fred

Key Provisions Freedom of Religion: Prohibits the government from establishing a religion or preventing the free practice of religion. Freedom of Speech: Safeguards the right to express ideas and opinions without government censorship. Freedom of the Press.

Haven't watched late night talk since Carson. They are all nothing but political hacks anymore.

Scott McDaniel

I’m glad we live in a country where Jimmy Kimmel can stay on the air, however we’ll vote with our remote and NOT watch abc17 at all.

Max

ABC got caught in their own trap. They encouraged Kimmel until the affiliates and the public objected so they fired him. Then ABC's loyal fan base started threatening ABC so ABC folded to the pressure. The affiliate still won't air the shows, and now everyone is angry with ABC. It's called, Karma

I now own my second hybrid.

k san

If they ever made one that could go longer distances. I have seen only 1 recharging station for such cars at Fred Meyer. To make them attractive, need many more recharging stations. Until then, no thx

Rachel

I love my hybrid <3

Stuart Alpert

Why not?

Joseph Nelson

My next vehicle will be an EV.

Torina Wilson

How about YES!, but it’s too expensive. Therefore, I’ll wait

Kerie Raymond

We have an EV for local & shorter range trips (have gone to Vancourver, WA & Eugene, OR) and a Hybrid for longer range trips. Electricity is $10/month, and nothing once we have PV. No maintenance cost

No, too expensive

Electric vehicles need to be cheaper for me to invest in one. I'm just trying to get from point A to point B on a budget!

Because I want to make that choice being I'm a free individual in the United States of America. Free to make my own choices and not be told by a dictator governor of the State of Oregon. FDKB.

Fred Colbern

Government is already controlling you when you drive. Ever stop at a stoplight? That's some university indoctrinated bureaucrat deciding how long you will be made to sit there and wait for his little technocracy to "turn the light green" so you can go.

George Pearson

No one forced me! I love getting 50 mpg while gas guzzlers are paying my share!

GT Thomas

I do not want a vehicle liberals try to force on me.

Bob A. Bui

Screwing your kids/grandchildren to own the libs? Nice.

George Pearson

No one is forcing you! Watch something else beside Fox for a change, to get a full picture!

poor turtle

I mean I would but they are too expensive. Honestly I would rather to not drive at all and take the bus everywhere but that isn't currently realistic.

Karen Barker Rouse

Can’t imagine it would make long road trips easy.

Kerie Raymond

Not easy, but doable! Worth it in the long run.

Douglas E. Wilson

We are being priced out of everything by so called do gooders!

Robert Northrup

If it would meet my needs yes. Unfortunately there are none currently that can.

Ed Drahos

The answer itself is explanatory enough. It's too expensive. Yet the charging situation isn't set up to be a reasonable solution. This is because the industry is totally out for reoccurring profits to charge for such electric vehicles. You can blame commercialism for this greed.

Latterdaysaint

Waste of money

J H

Because the majority are NOT truly environmentally friendly! Would consider a hybrid.

Christena

I've always wanted a hybrid but having my vehicles paid off it's just not worth it.

dan bob

Although it’s environmentally friendly, it is far too expensive. Perhaps in the future when corporations become competitive in this area and sell vehicles at cheaper prices.

Hugh Jjggh

It’s not that it’s too expensive I just like gas powered cars and I love hearing the engine rev unfortunately kids today will never understand not only what that 3rd pedal is for but also a real car

Heidi Owen

Most people I know cannot afford them, but I'll bet kate brown can....

Kerie Raymond

We were fortunate to buy an EV new with substantial discounts and rebates, credits. $16K for a $34K new car. I don't think it's too expensive.

Ben Wiborg

Expensive or not the power cells are the problem when it come to disposal or manufacture.

Sam Ackerman

NO, I will however buy a vehicle that fits my needs.
