Still this city has a Thread for it and one who daily keeps it on alkaline batteries.

It is just so easy to read between the lines. Just watch how far one lets it out..... some threads I believe in cancel culture for ...
Hit the nail on the head, Dave. Few users here love to complain about crime and subtly insert political narratives into their comments. If only they put as much energy into actually fixing the issues as they do sitting on their computer complaining and whining all day about Krasner and homicides.

So sad ... Somebody just trying to do their job.


They'll get this guy this week.

This is national news even if the DM

https://www.dailymail.co.uk/news/art...e-robbery.html

I thought this would have it's own thread. Thiis is just so cold blooded and selfish. She gave up the money.

The perp knew or learned the routine. An ex employee?

I believe in "street justice" for POS like him. Let the family have 10 minutes with him.

I guess you are the only one that can read between the lines. You'd be surprised how rare your assumptions are correct in this forum.

Oh, and I guess positive comments in these threads fix more of the issues than negative comments with the homicides and Krasner? I always assumed posting comments in this forum was a waste of time regardless of the content.

I'd rather complain about something that actually matters instead of Santa Claus and snowballs.


What exactly do you do (without getting paid) to make our city a better place? I'd bet nothing.

Why do you keep coming back if it upsets you?


Why are you stalking me?


Where are you picking up 'Racist' posts?

If the violent crime is on steroids, then by all means, keep exposing it and commenting on it. Call it out, whether a white cop shoots an unarmed black kid on a bike, or if it's black on black crime.

Don't sweeten it, keep talking about it. I sense that your nemesis just wants to sweep that pervasive reality under the rug.

I'm not sure where they're getting that the posts are 'racist.'

Yeah' I'm not getting that from your posts. The reality is that a long standing history of black on black crime has damaged the lives of so many in that community, and the statistics point overwhelmingly to that section of the population. It's not racist to talk about it, and it is more important than addressing superficial issues like blackface to talk about it. Philadelphia suffers from this, not only imagewise, but that is the least of it, IMO. The point about keeping up appearances, just for the sake of not invoking responsibility on the part of the black community for its shortcomings is the reason the situation continues to fester.
