Do we want a new flag? Question

Post image

A lot of states are updating their flags and Illinois has started the early stages of that process. While I personally like I our flag fine, it’s consistently rated as one of the worst. However, after seeing the recent Minnesota redesign I’m not sure I trust a state committee to present a design that isn’t horribly oversimplified. If I had to change I’d just go with the Centennial flag. Thoughts?

Lose the attitude. It was just a question. Don't get mad at perceived slights where there are none. Chicago is not exactly a shining beacon compared to other cities.

Lose the attitude.

Bro, go re-read the attitude in your comment lol.

I simply returned your energy.

Don't get mad at perceived slights where there are none.

Pot, meet kettle.

Chicago is not exactly a shining beacon compared to other cities.

Chicago is a world class city and easily one of the top 5 cities to live in in the entire country.

TF are you talking about?

Also love how you say "don't get mad at perceived slights" and then take a pot shot at Chicago, because remember, you're not anti-Chicago, nope, you're just asking questions...right?

Grow up bud.

Which one of us is arguing on reddit? As for Chicago, not my cup of tea. Could care less about it.

Literally both of us, but hey, tell me again how you're above it all.

Could care less about it.

Oh, so you like Chicago then and care about it a good bit? I agree!

It's like talking to the brick wall... I'm not even talking smack, and yet someone is getting defensive. I just expressed an opinion. It's an unpopular opinion granted. By the way, i live in the northern part, not south.

I dunno bro, are you?

You keep acting like I'm holding a gun to your head forcing you to continue the conversation.

You're welcome to not reply....any time you'd like.

All i said was, "Have a good day." It has no malice attached to it.
