Speech Rules, Safety Fears, and Racism in Springfield, Illinois
See Gov ^ | 4/14/2026 | Zach Adams

Springfield, Illinois is feeling a lot like Chicago these days. Of course is probably because a woman on Mayor Brandon Johnsons staff is also an alderwoman on the Springfield City Council. WOW, sure seems like Brandon Johnsons Great hate for Law Enforcement is appearing in Springfield Through osmosis I guess.

Lakesha Purchase, an alderwoman complains and whines and cries about her safety, when the rest of the leftists attack law enforcement and others on line, well she has nothing to say about that. Black fatigue is real.

Black Fatigue is NOT what the liberals say it is.

I guess I shouldn’t be, but I was surprised to see that idiots think blacks have Black Fatigue.

Instead of blacks CAUSING Black Fatigue.

The ones who work certainly have ghetto rat fatigue. One such miscreant tried to mug a lady a couple of blocks from where I live. They came out, beat the crap out of him, and turned him over to the cops. I’m sure some liberal judge let him out back on the street, but at least he would have been too sore to do much and would know better than to come back to my neighborhood.
