"Rioting, vandalism and looting erupted in Philadelphia on Monday night hours after police fatally shot a 27-year-old black man armed with a knife during a domestic disturbance call

Late into the night, growing anger boiled over into a violent riot near the Philadelphia Police 18th District building. Several officers were injured by bricks and other projectiles thrown at them by a crowd of demonstrators. 

At least 30 officers have been hurt with 12 hospitalized including one female Philadelphia Police Sergeant, 56, who suffered a broken leg after being hit by a speeding pick-up truck that was videoed driving towards a line of officers close to the city center shortly before 1am, according to Philadelphia Police."



Just another day in BLM land.


The video of the cops shooting the guy is telling.  They tell the guy to drop the knife about 20 times and back up as he advances.  The cops didn't want to shoot the guy but he was asking for it.

    Just another city filled with a supermajority of DEMOCRAT voters.

    Philadelphia has always been a political subject Sam.  :D

    Justice was done, and sadly someone died.  He apparently wanted to die and was granted his wish.  There is no actual anger at the police for this shooting.  There is no one rioting or protesting who believes the police acted incorrectly.

    This is political activism in America today.  Police officers must no longer be viewed as fair game for rocks, bottles, fireworks, and apparently now, vehicles.  When a police officer who is legitimately discharging his lawful duties is assaulted with risk of injury, deadly force should be authorized.  Frankly, it should be used.  This garbage has to be stopped.


    Freedom and a submissive populace cannot co-exist.

    I gave you BLM, even though Mr Zip Code (or whatever us55840 actually means) stated it was a fact that Trump was running against it:

    Once the DEMOCRATS showed up, the move was a done deal. 

    I keep telling the remaining agenda crew that the responses count as much, or more, than the OP. 

    Carry on.
