See for yourself … Rockford is great

Some of you made sure to tell us we were missing the point when we called out Rolling Stone for dissing Rockford in its feature story on how the U.S. fights terrorism. One reader said, “I’m new to this area and hope the people of Rockford are smarter than those representing you at the RRStar.”
Gee, thanks. We didn’t take issue with the theme of the article. Nor will we. Rockford got a bad rap. And we didn’t like it. So, we told you. One reader challenged us to find images that proved Rockford is a great place to live. So, we did. Here’s a photo gallery which we hope reminds you all what’s great about this city.
And if you’re going to whine about how awful it is to be here, either help make your community better or find a new place to live and complain about.

Anna- good piece. I mean, when you’ve got Magic Waters, no amount of drug-fueled violence or lack of job opportunity should bring you down. Viva la Symbol!!!
