A cartoon from The Economist. We can only wonder what sort of bigoted caricatures they drew of black folks when civil rights activists were fighting segregation in 1960s America. While they might consider this cartoon satire, I consider it offensive.

Dear Illinoisans:

Today is election day.

Go vote.

Remember to support those who eschew tyranny.

Remember to punish those who promote tyranny.

And remember to vote as early and as often as they’ll let you.

The SCRA’s April 2015 meeting has been cancelled, per the head honcho Don Gwinn.  The KC Hall where the meeting is held also happens to be a polling place.  The County Clerk’s office needs to set up the polling station this evening.

SCRA apologizes for any inconvenience.

NBC Chicago brings us the body count from Easter Weekend in Chicago, where Chicago “Culture” was in full swing.  “Four people were killed and at least 18 others wounded in shootings across Chicago throughout the weekend.”

Nothing says Happy Easter like shooting people over stupid stuff.

It could be worse though.

Last Easter, it was nine dead and 36 wounded.

Ouch.

That stings, doesn’t it Rahm!
