It’s a pretty sad thing that I have come to check the Philadelphia Police Department’s Current Crime Statistics page every weekday morning.[1]The statistics are updated Monday through Friday only. Well, this is Monday morning, and the first of February, so we get the homicide statistics for the month of January. And an even fifty people […]
Sometimes you just have to laugh at the editors of The Philadelphia Inquirer. After years of rising homicide rates, they blame problems not on Mayor Jim Kenney, whom the Editors endorsed in his 2019 campaign, but on Police Commissioner Danielle Outlaw, the ‘social justice’ policewoman from the left coast, and a near-total puppet of the […]
Around 10:00 AM yesterday morning, I read the story Archdiocese of Philadelphia spins off Downingtown psychiatric center where pedophile priests were sent in The Philadelphia Inquirer, and I made two comments. Several hours later, my initial comment was still there: This article ignores one important point: the accused priests sent to Vianney couldn’t be reported […]
About fifteen years ago, I worked for a ready-mixed concrete company in suburbs of Philadelphia, and one of my responsibilities was driver recruitment. The biggest problem? More than half of potential recruits couldn’t pass the drug test! The greatest anti-poverty program is a job, and a huge percentage of those in poverty in Philadelphia have […]

Supreme Court again rules that Philly and other counties cannot count undated mail ballots The ruling comes after several Philly-area counties defied the court’s previous guidance. The […]
The “aspiring rapper” headline of this article was inspired by my good friend Robert Stacy McCain’s series of the same name, which occurred to me when I saw the following article in The Philadelphia Inquirer: Two more YBC rappers are accused of murder. One said he was at the shooting but didn’t fire a gun. […]
This site noted, two days after the election, that the college-educated elites who supported Kamala Harris Emhoff just couldn’t understand how a majority of Americans didn’t just love her to death and cast the vast majority of their votes for her. We pointed out on Friday that working class voters along the Mexican border in […]
No, of course The Philadelphia Inquirer didn’t publish Spencer Majett’s photo, but it wasn’t difficult to find. Man charged with murder of a bystander and shooting at cops, police say Spencer Majett is a suspect in the killing of 23-year-old Felicity Vanatta, a bystander who was fatally shot after an argument outside a Kensington deli […]
