Certified moron
Alec Baldwin killed a producer and hurt another person working on his film, which goes to show you, we should ban giving guns to leftists or liberals. They don’t know how to use them. They don’t respect them. They don’t know that you never point a gun at anyone unless you intend to kill them, and you never point a gun at anyone you don’t intend to kill. If it has a magazine in it, and you haven’t checked the chamber, that means you are a certified moron, which Alec Baldwin has proven to everyone he is after the past two or three years.
Get familiar with gaming legislation
The Illinois gaming charter specifies that the gaming commission licensing priority is to benefit economically distressed communities. This is why, by action of the state legislature, there will be casino revenue sharing between the cities of Waukegan, North Chicago and Park City, all of which qualify. Sorry Ann Taylor, a recent convert to casino advocacy, but Libertyville Township and Warren Township school districts do not meet the definition of economically distressed. Please do not jeopardize the millions in revenue coming to the three cities by insisting the casino developer do something for the independent, tax-levying Libertyville and Warren Township school districts. As someone who has been on the sidelines until recently, Ann Taylor please read up and get familiar with the gaming legislation. This long-awaited and much-needed initiative must go forward without further delays.

Hunters beware
Recently, two duck hunters slaughtered three of our neighborhood’s pet Rouen ducks while they were swimming in the Spring Lake channel on the Chain O’ Lakes. A Rouen usually doesn’t attempt to fly, as they are much larger than the smaller and similar-looking mallard duck. These domesticated ducks make very good backyard pets as they are calm, sociable and very entertaining. We all enjoyed these beautiful birds since this past spring, and will miss them very much. Nowhere in the Illinois waterfowl regulations did I find the Rouen as fair game. These hunters need to lose their licenses, or as a minimum, get a very stiff fine. I grew up as a hunter and learned a lot from my father. Ignorance of the species, or the all-consuming desperation to shoot something is not sportsmanlike, or even lawful. I know who these hunters are, and am considering filing an official complaint with the IDNR.
Handicapping America
The present American leadership, the Democratic Party, is handicapping America on energy in the name of pursuing a climate agenda that will have no effect on the climate, but is raising energy prices and harming the lower and middle classes disproportionately.
Human lab rats
The American people are being used as guinea pigs. We are Fauci guinea pigs. Just like the poor animals that are being used in labs, along with lab rats, we are Fauci human lab rats. You don’t want to believe it, folks? Fauci needs to be checked and double-checked for the stuff that he is doing. This guy is a mad scientist. Totally, a mad scientist, and people need to put a stop to him.
Everything is rigged
Our country is rigged. Our school system is rigged. Our voting system is rigged. Our government is rigged. All rigged by the crazy left wing. If people were smart, they’d take their kids out of government schools. That is the best thing for them.
What has he ever done?
What is Obama doing about the mental health in this country? What is he doing about the drugs being brought into this country? What is Obama doing about the illegal immigration that continues to come into this country? Nothing. He’s big on talking and that’s all he’s ever done, be big on the talking. And the people continue to bow to him as if he was God. I’ve got news for you folks, he’s not God. He’s done nothing for this country. What has he ever done? Nothing.
