Editor's note: This op-ed was published first by Wirepoints. Illinois’ Nov. 5 ballot will ask state residents this question: “Should the Illinois Constitution be amended to create an additional 3% tax on income greater than $1,000,000 for the purpose of dedicating funds raised to property tax relief?” That question is the next multi-billion-dollar tax hike proposal from Gov. J.B. Pritzker and the General Assembly’s Democratic supermajority.

The language of politics is nasty and in recent years it’s become extreme, Wirepoints writers Ted Dabrowski and John Klinger report in an op-ed posted on July 17. Many even link the assassination attempt on Donald Trump to the rhetoric that’s enveloped this presidential election. We won’t go that far, as vile language does not equal assassination attempts and free speech deserves to be fiercely protected, no matter how offensive it may get between politicians.
