Prayers to his friends and family. 91 is a wonderful life. I am sure family would have like to have him around longer but 91 is pretty darn good. Good for him for having a long life. Now hopefully all of us have that.
Yes, I know. But he was my senator for all those years, and I voted for him (except for his first run, since I was too young). It was better than voting for the Democrats.
Percy was a hard line liberal. Percy wanted strict gun control, including the outlawing of all handguns. In 1972, there was a serious effort to pass a federal law prohibiting and confiscating all handguns from American civilians, and Percy was a main supporter to forever ban civilian ownership of handguns in the USA .

This is dude made Marky Kirk look like a decent Republican in comparison.
RIP.
The murder of Senator Percy’s daughter remains an open case. Police claim that there was no intruder, and the brutal, violent nature if the crime suggest it was someone she knew.
Mrs Percy (not the girl’s birth mother) is said to have seen the killer.
Everyone in Chicago has always known who the killer was.
This is why Percy never ran for president. Another cover-up for the rich & famous.
