APRIL 6, 2018, KEIZERTIMES, PAGE A9 HALL, continued from Page A1 Public fi gures are more traditionally defi ned as pub- lic offi cials or any other per- son pervasively involved in public affairs. It would likely even stretch the defi nition of a limited public fi gure, which is someone that thrusts them- selves in to the forefront of public controversies. After dealing with that con- troversy, much of the meeting revolved around issues related to school safety. Post said he’d had recent conversation with a group of retired police offi cers that had an interest in volunteering as security offi cers for Oregon schools. “We would pay for self- locking doors and bulletproof glass,” Post said. When asked where the funds for such security mea- sures would come when “teachers are underpaid and we have students without desks and without books,” Post said money collected from the state taxes on recre- ational marijuana would cover the expense. Post also alluded to support for the idea of arming teach- ers. “There wouldn’t be a sign saying there are guns, it would be a word-of-mouth thing and the kids would take care of it for us. They would spread the message among their friends and the bad guys would go down the street,” Post said. Other members of the au- dience pinned the problem on mental health issues, a lack of teaching regarding the “Gold- en Rule,” and proposed a re- turn to mandatory uniforms as a way of “equalizing” stu- dent populations. “I know that people want to get in their corners and di- vide ourselves. It starts with how we try to interact with others and set the example. I don’t know where you start, but the best place is at home,” Thatcher said in response to the lack of mutual kindness. Thatcher also said she had a conversation during the re- cent short session with stu- dents from the Eugene area who would welcome a return to uniforms. Other questions from the approximately 30 or so at- tendees ran the gamut from issues affecting individuals to process questions. In response to a question regarding school vouchers, Thatcher said she is open to ideas, but “I want the money to follow the child.” She also mentioned the Joint Com- mittee on Student Success as a point-of-contact. When one attendee asked Post whether a group of legis- lators knew better than a jury how to evaluate non-eco- nomic damages, Post admitted he didn’t have an answer to the question in the moment. When asked about the sta- tus of a new bridge crossing the Willamette River between Salem and Keizer, Thatcher responded, “All I can say is that another part of the district advocated for 50 years for the Newberg-Dundee Bypass and the fi rst dirt was just moved.” When asked what the leg- islators or constituents could do to help with getting good information into the hands of legislators, Thatcher said she wanted to know why constituents wanted a certain vote, not just which way they wanted her to vote. Post said he also disregard- ed cut-and-paste emails where the text was provided by an- other group or organization and the constituent merely at- tached their name to it. “If you take the time to send me an email, I will re- spond to every one of them,” Post said. Both legislators pre- fer communication by email.
