Rockford has two of the most dangerous neighborhoods in America

Wally Jackson
   Rockford, Illinois has the proud distinction of having two neighborhoods in the top twenty five of a list of the most dangerous neighborhoods in the United states. This is unheard of as Rockford is only a city of a hundred and fifty thousand and is hardly a blip on most maps you see of the continental United States of America. I have lived in Rockford all of my life and while there are great parts surely the bad parts have multiplied as an influx of urban residents adding to their welfare roles in another county have made their move into the region. Large parts of Rockford became indistinguishable from Chicago and Milwaukee because large parts of the population of these two cities made the move to help further decay other regions of this country. is same process is repeating itself all over the country and indeed several smaller cities had made this list. As far as Rockford

Coming in at No. 18 on the list is a west-side area of Rockford around State Street and Rockton Avenue that includes Fairgrounds Park.

At No. 5 is a large swath that stretches from high-crime areas along Kishwaukee Street and along Seventh Street north to State Street and west to the Rock River to encompass Midtown and part of downtown Rockford.

  these two areas are scary and while they have the cool old architecture I love it is painful to drive through these areas and see how ghetto it has become. These two areas are not even safe to walk during the daytime. these are areas that need constant patrolling and it is because this community has such little disregard for property and safety that few business nor corporation retail outlets want to set up shop quit literally because of safety. This is something liberals don't want to say when they talk about manufacturing and American jobs going to China because citizens there are more willing to be human and not drug-crazed black shooters who would kill you for enough money for a pack of cigarettes. Instead of focusing on this aspect of society they want to jam the police and basically prevent them from patrolling and protecting from this savage urban madness that shares our streets. you will never hear a Sam Sedar of Thom Hartmann or Alan Combs and countless other liberals on the radio talk about the real dangers as they do with police brutality. Perhaps one of the reason is these fucks make so much moola that they don't have to ever worry about living in one of these communities of color. Rockford is a lot like Peoria and these towns will play it out in the rest of America under a socialist Democratic agenda whose goal of impoverishment is a political agenda to keep themselves in charge and distribute money as they see fit. Their goals of protecting the underclass and underground economy is the basic root of all of the social problems this country faces and that is part of their plan.
