If you and I had been there at the time...
I'm an old fat fart... I wouldn't mess around with a baseball bat. I've got plenty of tools for dealing with scum like that. I wish the "good samaritan", who also appears to a veteran, had had my G3 or AR, or even my SKS. They wouldn't be looking for the perps if he had, they'd be scraping them up off the sidewalk.
I hear ya.
This man could and should have had a concealed carry license, and a handgun on his person. Maybe after this he will, and hopefully the Good Samaritan too.
PA even honors my Texas CHL.
It’s the city of brotherly love, don’t you know? That means the “brothers” love each other and hate Whitey!
“And what KIND of males were they??? (besides cowardly)”
Scu*bags, punks, visceral animals, the vanguard of the revolution?
Good, they have been IDed. And FOP have $1,000 reward offered. Time to clean the streets of such human excrement.
Got to carry in Philadelphia.....I’d rather go on business in Philly than Reading. Reading is 16 miles away and when assignments came up, my co-workers were scared of Philly and would trade me any time to take their assignments and take mine in Reading.
My family was in Philly last year and I was actually afraid. I will never go again.

That’s my old neighborhood. It’s a frigging ghetto now.
He was attacked because he’s white.
When I was growing up it was a neighborhood full of WWII and Korea vets, raising kids and working in the numerous small factories and small businesses that were all over.
The problem was Olney High School, which bussed in minorities from all over the city; whenever school season was open, there were racial problems as they’d walk through the streets breaking soda bottles and leaving trash on peoples’ properties, breaking into folks’ cars, houses, ganging up on local white kids, etc. There were cops INSIDE the school.
When summer came, there were no issues.
Gee...what a coincidence.
White Flight to the suburbs started in the 80s and now it is what it is.
A shame. It was a nice area once upon a time.
Killadelphia.
“...They also have a preemption law that forbids cities or counties from enacting stricter laws than those of the state...”
That doesn’t stop Police Chief ThugRamsey and Mayor ThugNutter from trying, though.
Philly thinks it’s a different country from the rest of the state...in a way, I guess, they’re right. The majority of Pennsy is a pretty conservative state.
I carry everywhere. So did my mother when she lived there.
PA is a VERY gun-owner friendly state, much to the dismay of the Thugs running the city.

That Which Is Seen, and That Which Is Not Seen
In the department of economy, an act, a habit, an institution, a law, gives birth not only to an effect, but to a series of effects. Of these effects, the first only is immediate; it manifests itself simultaneously with its cause—it is seen.
The others unfold in succession—they are not seen: it is well for us if they are foreseen. Between a good and a bad economist this constitutes the whole difference—the one takes account of the visible effect; the other takes account both of the effects which are seen and also of those which it is necessary to foresee.
Now this difference is enormous, for it almost always happens that when the immediate consequence is favourable, the ultimate consequences are fatal, and the converse. Hence it follows that the bad economist pursues a small present good, which will be followed by a great evil to come, while the true economist pursues a great good to come, at the risk of a small present evil.
In fact, it is the same in the science of health, arts, and in that of morals. If often happens, that the sweeter the first fruit of a habit is, the more bitter are the consequences. Take, for example, debauchery, idleness, prodigality. When, therefore, a man, absorbed in the effect which is seen, has not yet learned to discern those which are not seen, he gives way to fatal habits, not only by inclination, but by calculation.
This explains the fatally grievous condition of mankind. Ignorance surrounds its cradle: then its actions are determined by their first consequences, the only ones which, in its first stage, it can see. It is only in the long run that it learns to take account of the others. It has to learn this lesson from two very different masters—experience and foresight. Experience teaches effectually, but brutally. It makes us acquainted with all the effects of an action, by causing us to feel them; and we cannot fail to finish by knowing that fire burns, if we have burned ourselves. For this rough teacher, I should like, if possible, to substitute a more gentle one. I mean Foresight. For this purpose I shall examine the consequences of certain economical phenomena, by placing in opposition to each other those which are seen, and those which are not seen.
She also likes sharp pointy and edged toys and tends to dress .. immodestly.
My advice to any thugs she might run across .. please mess with this sexy lady, pretty please. :)
An armed man is a citizen...but An armed woman is a dangerously beautiful citizen!!! Hahah!
Olney and NE Philly were never “nice.” They just went from six-pack seedy to ghetto ghoulishness.
I disagree, brother. I lived there, and it was a good place to grow up.
It was bad when Olney HS was in session because the morons that went there raised hell in “whitey’s neighborhood”.
Other than that...it was an OK place to be a kid...for a while.
Hope those old German Churches don't get burned.
