The latest criminal trend in Philly:

Last night in Philadelphia right next to City Hall, a man on a motorcycle kicked in the back windshield of a car where two kids were sitting.
The woman in the car was delivering for Uber eats. 
He then headbutts her with his helmet and drops a gun.

The abnormal is not the normal just because it is prevalent.

Philly DA not too upset about mass looting
JAZZ SHAW 11:21 AM on October 06, 2023
   
The massive looting sprees and violence against both pedestrians and police in Philadephia have been too much for even the legacy media to ignore. Retail stores, state liquor distributors, and pharmacies have been utterly destroyed and emptied of anything that can be sold on the black market, while the city’s understaffed law enforcement units struggle to bring down at least a few of the gangsters. But to their credit, they have managed to make at least some arrests. So what will happen to these violent vandals? That remains an open question, apparently. The city’s infamous District Attorney, Larry Krasner, was asked about it yesterday. He appears to be taking a “wait and see” approach, insisting that the criminals will have to be dealt with in “an even-handed way.” (Fox News)
 
Progressive Philadelphia District Attorney Larry Krasner, who has been accused of being soft on crime, assured reporters in recent days that he will investigate the people involved in widespread looting of the city in an “even-handed way.”

Krasner, who was impeached by Pennsylvanian Republicans last year for policies they alleged exacerbated crime in the city, claimed that he will weigh whether those arrested in connection to the looting have been “fundamentally law-abiding people” throughout their lives despite their antics over the weekend.

The unity of government which constitutes you one people is also now dear to you. It is justly so, for it is a main pillar in the edifice of your real independence, the support of your tranquility at home, your peace abroad; of your safety; of your prosperity; of that very liberty which you so highly prize. But as it is easy to foresee that, from different causes and from different quarters, much pains will be taken, many artifices employed to weaken in your minds the conviction of this truth.  George Washington - Farewell Address

Yeah, right. And Jeff Dahmer just had a bad case of pica that caused some odd eating habits.

Seventeen Techniques for Truth Suppression

Of all tyrannies, a tyranny sincerely exercised for the good of its victims may be the most oppressive. It would be better to live under robber barons than under omnipotent moral busybodies. The robber baron's cruelty may sometimes sleep, his cupidity may at some point be satiated; but those who torment us for our own good will torment us without end for they do so with the approval of their own conscience.

After Massive Looting, Soros DA Will Take It Easy on Looters
By Pamela Geller - on October 6, 2023
 
The ruin and destruction of our cities is all by design by the left.

‘More on the looting here: KEEP VOTING DEMOCRAT: Mass Looting in Philadelphia, Huge Mobs Loot, Destroy Apple, Lululemon, Foot Locker in “Coordinated Attacks,” “It’s Just Started and We Ain’t Finished!”
 
Fox News: Progressive Philadelphia District Attorney Larry Krasner, who has been accused of being soft on crime, assured reporters in recent days that he will investigate the people involved in widespread looting of the city in an “even-handed way.” Krasner, who was impeached by Pennsylvanian Republicans last year for policies they alleged exacerbated crime in the city, claimed that he will weigh whether those arrested in connection to the looting have been “fundamentally law-abiding people” throughout their lives despite their antics over the weekend (Fox News).

End Wokeness: Soros-funded DA Larry Krasner says he will go easy on looters if he determines that they’re good people (X).

Free Beacon: Krasner, who in 2017 received millions of dollars from left-wing megadonor George Soros, campaigned as a progressive prosecutor who would overhaul Philadelphia’s criminal justice system. During the 2020 George Floyd riots, he called for “policing” to be “defunded in favor of things that work better.” Since then, murders throughout the city have skyrocketed to their highest numbers in decades, with more than 500 Philadelphians killed last year (Free Beacon).

I'm sure they all go to church every day and  volunteer at charitable institutions. :3:

So, if you've never committed a serious crime, you get a mulligan?
