I was extremely disappointed by the attitude of your March 10 “Our View” editorial took. Telling your neighbor to “scram” simply because a political inquiry was made shows the lack of knowledge and understanding the editors have of the relationship between Winnebago and Boone counties.Industry on both sides of the county line have numerous employees from each county; commercial and professional services are provided and sought on both sides and families, reside on both sides. Boone and Winnebago are joined at the hip, and nothing is more evident than our judicial system, where Boone and Winnebago are part of the same judicial circuit and judges serve both counties.Maybe Boone County residents should decide to tell the Rockford Register Star to “scram” and refuse to buy the paper as well as not participate in advertising. Next time, if there is one, maybe the editors will realize there is more to cooperation and they might see how it could work to eventually, for example, bring passenger rail service to both of our communities.— Donald L.
