A Terms of Service reminder:

Quote:
Be civil, no personal attacks, flaming, or insults. We may attack ideas (politely) but we do not attack the speaker of the idea. Be careful with your words, there is a point where being direct crosses a line into blunt, in-your-face hostility. Please, report bad posts instead of engaging in flame wars on the boards. Insulting another member or a moderator will not be tolerated anywhere on this website. This includes Direct Messages and Reputation Comments.

If you disagree with something, say so, but explain WHY.

Stay on topic. Attempts to hi-jack threads by switching topics or going off topic will be deleted and infractions issued. This is not a chat room - when people hi-jack threads by posting messages that are of interest to only few people, the threads often stop being useful discussions of initial topics.

Hate speech, racism or bashing of ANY sort will NOT be tolerated. Rude posts will be removed and infractions issued. Do not quote or talk to trolls or your posts will also be deleted. Use the report feature instead.

That's Kensington, not Port Richmond. Not even close.

I don't know. Its right on the boarder and closer to PR proper actually if you look on a google map. But I understand what you say cause I don't think of that area when someone says Port Richmond.

Frank, you often cite crime for being a major reason on moving out of the city, which is understandable.

Yet you continue to consume yourself with it, which doesn't make much sense to me.
But this is something I've noticed from many suburbanites, like they need daily confirmation on their choice to move.

If you scroll back you will see why I do this. People always ask how the crime in Philly is and may not be from this area and do not know where to get up to date actual statistics. I post the worst crimes here to stand as a database for so many people who have asked.. Thats all. Don't read too much into it. Its really no big deal.. Serious

Oh and apparently people read it cause it has almost 30k views.

It absolutely matters. IDK why you think it doesn't. If they are getting simple facts wrong like neighborhood names, it makes you wonder what else they are wrong about. When reporting news, it is important to get every single fact straight.

Look, Fox news is wrong again This is West Kensington or Harrowgate, not Port Richmond.
