Philadelphia needs another ‘cleansing’.

This time start at City Hall and work its way out.

Remember the GoodE Old Days when one of those rowhouses went up like a tinderbox and made Mrs O’Learys cow (Chicago) look like a minor event.

As it was, the most fortunate part of the fiasco was RIZZO had just been defeated by GoodE..had he still been mayor, am sure the rest of Philly would have made the Watts riots look like a day in the park.

The MOVE incident, including the fire, happened in May of 1985. At that time, Wilson Goode was mayor, but his predecessor was Bill Green, whom Goode defeated in 1983.

Frank Rizzo's last day as Mayor was January 7th, 1980.
