I do not mean to insult. I am intending to highlight that were this done to say, Joe Biden, you would rightfully object....but since it is done to the candidate you do not like, you allow it. I am not supportive of allowing political factors to dictate judicial matters.

I think I perhaps took your statement too literally

Councilmembers Cindy Bass and Mike Driscoll have introduced late-night curfews for businesses in the 8th and 6th districts. Driscoll said the goal is to reduce quality of life crime. Wondering if any of the Philly geeks know more about this effort and its effectiveness.

I get that. I simply do not believe that the people causing the undesirable activity will say " gee whiz, they closed some stores, I guess I will change my behavior and just go home....." Such a notion seems to ignore how people really are....

You do not see it because it serves you....today.....

They exist in reality....but not for you....not yet....if you think the Republicans will not do this back I might suggest you are not appreciated human nature.....and later when they do it back to YOUR preferred political player....and you object....come find me, we can object together...because it will still be wrong.

I have some doubts that this will be true.....but will wait to see if there is some evidence to support the notion.

Where do they go instead?

If only Sephora was closed.....Jasmine could have been spared....

Maybe, but that is just what it appears to be on its face. I think perhaps a more apt assessment might be whether or not it could be true that the business instead of the people are at fault here.... I want to know....when you take away the business, what do the people then do....suddenly become good citizens?

Thank you for confirming. Ooops.. did you see some racism in that too?

Yikes Seems as though this is being labelled some of that right-wing-nut conspiracy stuff they like to throw around.....it is good to see that more sane people are moving away from Democrats

I want to know if this helps, I mean....it could and it might....I assume there is some knowledge on the ground about what is going on that led them to try this.

I think "pop" is like heard in Georgia/South Carolina

Vernacular by location is something I really enjoy..... Here is the best question....is it "Coke", "pop", "soda"....or something else in your locale?

So.....you attribute racism being something we can find anywhere......to something we should see in everything. OK, I can get behind that for a moment. I declare you are a racist then. Because in your posting I see racism..... Wait....hold on.... Maybe.....maybe you are racist.....but...but your posting is not.... or.....or maybe... you are not racist, and your posting is not.... or should I see it in you, because it can be found everywhere...or...should instead maybe....give you benefit of the doubt? Man, this is really confusing...now I see why you just throw that label around, its just easier...

Spot on.....find racism in every god blessed thing that exists.....what a waste....

It might depend on recent articles....and whether or not those articles suitably supported the liberal ideological positions....it would make sense for some less-intellgent folks to make such a connection....that Newsweek is suddenly "far right"

“What we're seeing right now is, I think, unfortunately, the beginning of a trend in restaurant closures,” said Jot Condie, president and CEO of the California Restaurant Association. Now we should take this with a grain of salt. Anytime we hear anything from some group dedicated to an "association" we need to understand there is serious bias in play. But common sense, for anyone with even a modest understanding of economics, would tend to suggest the statement is true. I have to wonder, will the damage done here also result in the consideration for preventing these places from closing as it has elsewhere with markets? I also have to wonder, at what point.....does not stop to wonder if they are harming more than helping....

Is the standard tactic when you are cornered. You trot out stats that are essentially a lie. You see, what this coward DA did was try to suggest that current and incomplete stats, prior to the peak crime months of summer, can be compared to past years in entirety. So he takes a narrow line of stats to pretend its some kind of "proof". Not surprising coming from a despicable POS such as this DA....thank god he was ousted. And worse.....actual criminal justice reform is a need.....we need it..... and what this coward has done with his antics is set that process back...

I have to wonder....of they are unable to leverage lawfare to prosecute Trump out of the election, to what depths will they drift?

White women are among THE MOST entitled little sh!ts in the entire world.....

Agree completely. I might also note that with Obama we observed a careful maligning of journalism as well.
