Northern Liberties actually.

Exactly. I can hardly bear to watch the repetition of the horrid news and even when I do catch it it's stuff like that.

I love Philly but you are a lot of bad things going on that people are unaware of.We can pretend that it is only happening in North Philly or we could stand up and demand that the powers that be do more to make this city safer.
Ok, I'll change the "pretty rare" (which is different than rare) to occasionally. But it's not the norm. The powers that be can't change it, the culture needs to change. People need to raise their kids right.

I go to a bodega right near there on a weekly basis and the only issue I ever had was a hoodrat asking me for 50 cents. Other than that, I've never felt uncomfortable.
Right. Not to mention, Union Trust and the new Statuz night club are right there.

Nuttin to worry about .. It only happens to drug dealers or mob guys, don't you know. Regular people never have any crime committed against them
