If you hear a knock at the door and see this man's face, quick, make sure you have installed your new state-mandated carbon monoxide detector. Thanks to Senate sponsor Chicago Democrat Don Harmon, on January 1, every homeowner in the state will be required to have a CO detector within 15 feet of sleeping areas if our homes have attached garages, gas furnaces or gas water heaters.
The Democratic CO police admit this one may be tough to enforce.
Pick up your detector at any local Lowe's or Home Depot for $20 to $50 each. Just don't go to Wal-Mart or Sam's Club. The Dems don't like those stores.
We'll need to learn to play by the empowered Democratic tyrants' rules.
Play nice now. . .
