(Chief opinion: For)

By the use of this mascot, the University of Illinois is basically spitting on the faces and family of the most respected warriors...

When I got out of the Army...1970...I was spit on and called names. I have never killed any human beings. Those that spit on me... could have been my first. I do know that I would have rather had a mascot of me or "my kind" than spit on my face. It appears to me, that you have not experienced much in life. Hopefully, you will get a real " life ".
