Rockford is a hole.
It’s getting harder and harder to argue that statement. I’ve lived here all my life and it’s never been as bad as it is now. Just last Sunday an 18 year old worker at one of the local Walmarts was stabbed inside the store and died. They caught that guy too, but what the hell is going on?
I have a CCL and do carry, and will certainly continue to do so.
Where my wife and I live now is relatively safe, safer than where we used to live.
Two months ago there was a gun battle across the street from my brother’s house. No one was hurt, but his big picture window has a bullet hole in it, along with one in the opposite wall in his living room. He was laying on his couch when it happened, and lucky for him he wasn’t walking through the room. That round was right at head level.
Bad times….

Rockford is another American industrial city that was deliberately destroyed by both political parties. Cheap imported threaded fasteners absolutely devastated the city that was once known as “the screw capital of the world”.
