Hillary campaigned on UK, and Australian style gun bans, and gun confiscation. Don't get me started.

Worst Neighborhoods to live in the city of Philadelphia with high crime

1. North Philly
2. Kensington
3. Southwest-Kingsessing
4. West Philly past 50th street
5. Frankford
6. Germantown
Not accurate at all-Center City/University City would not be at the top if "crime" is the most important factor for someone. They are wonderful, large dynamic areas-but crime sometimes happens in large cities with tons of people, most of it petty.

"North Philly" is not a neighborhood and Germantown actually has some very low-crime areas and blocks.

Most of the lowest crime neighborhoods in the city are in Northwest and Northeast/Far Northeast Philly. Choosing a neighborhood this way would be forfeiting many of the benefits and attributes of living in a major city, but I digress..

Olde City, Rittenhouse, and Schuylkill River Park are very safe areas of Center City.

How about you also wear a helmet, elbow pads and knee pads while walking to protect yourself from getting hurt if you fall down. You should also get a bullet proof vest for extra protection.

Nobody is telling you what to do, so don't think you can tell me. I don't care if you don't like that I am able to legally carry a firearm. Nobody is telling you that you have to.

What? Tell me about that. I don't remember anything like that and I followed most of her speeches. Was it on her website?
I, tbh, have not looked at the dnc platform stuff lately though.
