We can't live in fear

Posted May 15, 2020 1:00 am

I cannot agree more with state Rep. Skillicorn who stated our constitutional rights are being denied. My father and his fellow soldiers fought in World War II for the freedoms of this country. While the stay at home or shelter in place was necessary for a time; that time has passed and it is time to get back to life. God is in control and not you, Governor. We cannot continue to live in fear as life is for the living. With social distancing and face masks, more freedom to move about needs to be put in place. Prohibiting any activity has always led to people becoming their own lawmakers as we see more people choosing not to follow Pritzker's order. Keep fighting for us who want to decide if we should live in fear, Rep Skillicorn.
