Very sickening story. This is the liberal, BLM, anti-police atmosphere that the liberal media promotes like with their biased coverage of the Ferguson and Baton Rouge cases, fanning the flames of hatred against police before the true facts of each case isn't even revealed in court yet.

This is the culture that gave rise to Elijah Cummings, Maxine Waters and Cory Booker and even Obama himself.
Well there was black people on the news praising the police also. But at the sametime the cops in general does not have the best community relationship with alot of people of color...with the climate and these situations with cops there is a "Distrust". I for one do not hate cops and i am black and democrat. I hate that the situation escalated to the degree that it did.

If you noticed in the video many of the Police Officers themselves were black.
This virulent hatred and assault on black people and Democrats is getting a bit old and sad.

There is video on the page showing exactly what is described in the article and comment from local news reporter describing same thing who apparently was also harassed.

Let's be realistic here, the percentage of votes going to a Democrat in a Philly neighborhood like this is going to be high 90's. There is so few Republicans in these neighborhoods they typically need to assign a Democrat as poll worker representing Republicans since the poll worker needs to reside in the District.

^^^^All true. This is a mostly Black, Democrat area, of a 90%+ majority Democrat city. Drug deals, and horrendous violent crime, and murder happens daily.

I recently spent about two weeks near Penn Hospital, Independence Hall and Center city in general. It was actually quite nice. I've been to most of the major attractions there before but it gave me time to see some of the minor ones like the Ben Franklin museum, some of the parks etc. Lots of interesting things to see and you can't beat the choice of places to eat.

So they asked for ID and voter affiliation?
hahahahaha Yea it is impossible to tell because so many blacks are republicans. hahahaha

btw they don't have voter ID anyway because, according to the left, some blacks are so inept in life they can't figure out how to get one.


Speaking of lack of credibility.

Those are the nice sections. I was talking about North, West, and Southwest Philly. Lots of drugs, gangs, crime, and violence.

What do you mean? A nice 1000 sq ft. home with no yard or parking is only a few million.

Yeah, like how residents of East Pittsburg decided to dismantle their police department after Antwon Rose shooting incident? Now they are complaining about recent high crime spikes and police are not responding....well, because there are no police to respond

What is "sickening" is the fact that nowhere in your link does it say "democrats" or "black".
It is people that do things like you did that are "biased".
Can you not follow a story without adding your personnel spin to it?
