    This Just In From Disinformation Central, A.K.A. JohnPrigge.com

    The following block quotes come directly from Councilman Prigge’s own website.   We will debunk each one of his lies and/or misrepresentations one by one:  Citizens have brought the following to my attention recently: “Citizens,” or the special envoys to the Elgin City Council sent to spy on those opposing breed-specific legislation (BSL)? There are…


  • Is the Elgin City Council Disinformation Campaign Sending Out Disinformers?

    Is the Elgin City Council Disinformation Campaign Sending Out Disinformers?

     It appears as if some on the city council have sent what I can only describe as “disinformers” to make comments on the Daily Herald.   These disinformers have, like city councilmen themselves, cited poor evidence in favor of BSL, and have spread animosity and made personal attacks on those opposed to Elgin’s breed-specific legislation…

  • Are They Joking? Elgin Says They Will “Compromise” on Their Pit Bull Restrictions

    Are They Joking? Elgin Says They Will “Compromise” on Their Pit Bull Restrictions

    Wag the Hypocritical Dog!

    The Courier-News today has an interesting piece.   Wag the dog indeed!: Bow, wow, wow – wag the dog Elgin Mayor Ed Schock owns a German shepherd, while Councilman Robert Gilliam once owned a Doberman pinscher. Why this might make some folks go bow-wow-wow is that Schock and Gilliam are proponents of amending Elgin’s animal…


  • Compromise Schmompromise!

    Compromise Schmompromise!

    Editor’s note: Councilman Prigge saying “we’re not against sound input by the people who are going to be affected most by this legislation, which is Elgin citizens” is an outright LIE considering the consistent belligerent tone he has taken with Elgin citizens.   And while Councilman Gilliam waxes slippery about compromise, a true compromise would…

    Woe to Corrupt Government

    The prophet Isaiah offers a warning to corrupt government and the evil-doer: So the common man will be humbled and the man of importance abased, The eyes of the proud also will be abased.

  • Fools Hate Knowledge

    Fools Hate Knowledge

    I came across a proverb the other day, certainly not by accident, written by Solomon, the wisest man who ever lived.   He wrote it so that “A wise man will hear, and will increase learning.”   He had the following to say about those who turn away from knowledge and insist instead on remaining…
