I honestly hate that it has come to this, but I’m afraid some of these States in our Union will have to burn to the ground before people snap out of it.

First, I didn't say that WE should burn New York to the ground, just that there would have to be places that DO burn to the ground before people wake up. St. Louis is one of those places.

I don't live in St. Louis, I live in Springfield. The people who live in St. Louis don't get it.

LOL!

It’s sad. I don’t see any of the big cities getting out of it, and States that follow their big city leads will go right down with them. My parents live in a small, conservative town in southern Illinois, but Chicago is dragging the whole State down. I’m begging them to move either to Southwest Missouri or back to Texas where we lived in the 70s, but they don’t see the danger yet.

I’m hoping they see it before it’s too late.
