    To give an award to the Antioch School District for a job well done when their test levels are total disasters and graduation rate dismal is just beyond me. We rank very low in this state. What on earth is the Chamber of Commerce thinking? Educate yourself folks before you give an award to anyone. You look like idiots.

    Gotta love Antioch. This is a city where the academic bar is lowered so the idiots feel like they achieved something.

    Section 8 is the best thing that happened to this city and ghetto criminals living in our neighborhood makes it safer. This is the logic they want you to believe.
