At least we are doing something we haven't done for a while. We are talking about it. This is a good thing.

I don't care what any individual, group, or organization says or thinks: I am always going to hate Coach K and the Duke Blue Devils.

That may be true in eastern Europe. As for the great majority of American and British skinheads, the worst that can be said is that they like really loud music. Most -- in fact nearly all -- reported skinhead attacks in this country turn out to be bogus.

I am aware of the groups in Illinois. Three are a little too close for comfort. I would be happier if they lived a tad farther away. Mars would be nice.

The Iowa groups are especially violent and often operate on the Illinois side of the Mississippi. Who can forget the horrible and tragic incident perpetrated by Lutheran extremists at the Belvidere tool booth in 1998?:

Default Hmmm

Ya got me! I almost believed it until I realized the Onion is satire - and very good at it. .

Good joke! Thanks for the laugh.

I have heard that about Pekin and you seldom see a minority in that city. That's especially strange when the size of the city is approx. 34,000.
