If this bill passes, say goodbye to local control over all Illinois parks and expect to see open drug and alcohol use, needles, no sanitation and fire hazards, but no ordinary park users.
His job has never been to fix it – it has been to destroy it and he is succeeding very well at it. The only thing he has done right is follow his marching orders.
