September 27, 20231 yr Elect Larry Krasner as DA and Jim Kenney as mayor - both elected twice - and this is what you get. I have no sympathy for Philadelphians. Elections have consequences.
September 27, 20231 yr This is the first time I have heard about arrests. 20 so far. This has to stop. Companies are closing and moving out because of it. The criminals need to be prosecuted. I'm sure that Social Media played a role in this. They should be held to account as well.
September 27, 20231 yr when i saw philly looting trending on twitter this morning, my first thought was "damn did the city celebrate making the playoffs that hard?"
September 27, 20231 yr I used to go into town pretty often. Not these days. For starters, tired of dodging the packs of teen losers on ATVs and dirt bikes driving like Mario cart.

September 27, 20231 yr Amazing what happens when you elect district attorneys that won't prosecute crime. See San Francisco, Oakland, Los Angeles, Portland, New York, etc. This crap is why Trump has a chance.
September 27, 20231 yr The Police should have used their night sticks and given what these looters deserved a good beating.,

Fing disgusting, while i don't feel so bad for those that elected dumb and dumber into office twice, i don't have empathy for those that didn't.

September 27, 20231 yr Must say I was a little shocked to see this on the news, and in the heart of the city. One of the videos shared here was a gal just laughing and carrying on, at one point she quit laughing, and then back to laughing. They were brought up with absolutely no morals, no sense of right or wrong, and I could actually see troops lining the streets of our cities keeping order. They know NOT what they do, or what this behavior will lead to. One of our clients is Walgreen's who have been closing stores in some cities. We have been getting awarded a few of them to get back to working electricity, lights, and security so they can either get out of the lease or sell if they own these properties. It's insane what they have down to these stores. Every single inch of copper wire has been ripped out.
September 27, 20231 yr Close every business and relocate to lower crime areas outside the city where arrests and prosecutions still exist as part of the CJS.
September 27, 20231 yr Author And this is in Center City..... Then they have the balls to complain about the lack of supermarkets in their neighborhoods.

September 27, 20231 yr Them smashing the iPhones they just stole when the realize they are trackable is cute. Bunch of idiots.
September 27, 20231 yr This is going to result in shopping deserts and food deserts, and then 10 years from now the same people looted the stores so close to them will complain about the shopping deserts and food deserts that they created.
