Land of Lincoln...the prairie state...corn, soybeans, and pumpkins. Chicago-inclusive, but there's a lot more to Illinois than just the Windy City.

Be respectful and civil. No racism/bigotry/hateful speech.

“Kids dressed in Halloween costumes, walking to a parade, do not pose an immediate threat for the safety of a law enforcement officer,” Ellis said, according to Reuters.

“They just don’t. And you can’t use riot-control weapons against them.”
