"It is unfortunat that there are those who do not follow a 'Code of Ethiks' to fill their holes, etc, but the rest of us should not be punished because of same."
"Don't you have something better to do?"
"This ban does not directly effect me because I live in Oregon. I wish you the best of luck and hope the Mayor reconsiders this ban."
"Why not penalize the abusers instead of all being chastised."
"Our family removes hundreds of sharp metal objects from park play sand."
"Metal detecting allows us to preservce history and not lose it forever... please revoke your ban."

"Why does the Govt. have to ban a activey that DOEN"T hurt any one and helps clean the PARK etc"
"I travel full time in our rv and also metal detect as a hobby. I find this ban to be unfair to the true detectorist ."
