We need the legal OK to do so before we can really work on the specifics of what a casino will bring to Rockford. I am for Rockford, and not some area that encompasses so many legislators. Before we can decide anything, we need the ability to move forward when we get an idea rolling! So yes, I sign the petition, and remember the lies that were promised to us when we passed the lotto style of gambling in the state! To say that Rockford can't have the opportunities that lesser communities do is just wrong! Open the gates and let's see where the water falls!
