We. Are. Peoria (Area)

I am grateful for Governor Pritzker. It not his fault so many people from rural parts of Illinois ignore science and lack common sense. He's done a fantastic job.

When people don't follow rules and fail to act in their own best interests, there are consequences.

What's the purpose of this forum?

The entire message board. Is it private? Is it public? Is the purpose to elicit conversation? It seems like it's purpose is to make a select few feel special about their previous participation on a now defunct public forum.

What? No. I'm not compelled to prove anything.

Common sense. It is in very short supply lately.

There is plenty of corruption on both side. 2 wrongs don't make a right. Despite all the protestations, the rural part of this state would be in dire straits without all that is North of I80.
