Any arrests or more information about that poor McDonald's employee that was attacked for not giving free food?

How do you know they were Masterman kids? Did you see them? If so, why didn't you stop them? Did you call the police to have them arrested?


Trespassing? Trespassing where?


Funny that you would equate that with violent attacks and looting.




So you know about the department. What does that have to do with African-American teens and young adults rampaging through Center City and NE Philadelphia?


"I know about white people." You sound angry, racist and, TBH, like you're making excuses for criminal/poor behavior.


It's silly and immature to defend this type of behavior just because you share some sort of racial background.


When I arrest a white criminal, all I see is a criminal, same as any other criminal. They don't get a pass.


I hope one day you can be as honest and open-minded.

You are working your way to her putting you on Ignore. But she is still very knowledgeable on Philly as a lifelong elder resident today.

She certainly did not look good to say I know White people comment. But despite being on her ignore myself. I still look forward to her informative post on other things. Everyone gets labeled on the forum. Mine is a outsider to hater. Gets old.

There does seem to be a lot of 'rah rah' on here while ignoring serious problems.


Some neighborhoods are getting better, that's good. But there are also many neighborhoods that are getting worse, which people are ignoring.


Center City is great, but there's a lot of problems there right now also.

Okayyy... do you have a point to make about the topic? Or, do you not because you don't live here and really have no idea what is being discussed? Just curious.

LOL... i know right? Why some think it's incumbent on society to save the lives of dangerous criminals is just strange.

The Hippocratic Oath makes no exceptions based on character or behavior. It's clear as day:

"First, do no harm."

Allowing those exceptions, even if many would think them reasonable, puts us on a slippery slope downward into the worst aspects of our nature.

Let the legal system judge the behavior of a person. The medical system's job is to keep that person alive if at all possible.
