And they should sit down, shut up and just take it.
Excuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuse me, but............
.............precisely WHAT should “we whites” be actually doing about all thishere ‘black’ crime anyway?
Except for throwing more $$$$$$$$$ at it, that is.

Nutter is one reason to avoid Phily.
First it was Fast Eddie as mayor, now it’s someone named Nutter. City doesn’t stand a chance with that lineup.
There’s a Detroit destiny in Philly’s future.
I think you’re right.
Pity...

McNutty...with whom I sometimes agree...is in RDM - racism denial mode.
