Pennsylvania Gov. Tom Wolf (D) provided an update on Sunday of his administration’s response to the civil unrest in the Keystone State and, as cities across the state burn, asserted that Pennsylvanians have been “joining together to speak out against this injustice and make their voices heard, peacefully.”
Cities in Pennsylvania — from Harrisburg to Philadelphia — saw violent protests over the weekend, spurred by the death of George Floyd. Two officers in Harrisburg had to be hospitalized as protesters hurled bricks their way, and several officers in Philadelphia were injured as the protests in the streets reached new heights of anarchy. Some of the officers suffered chemical burns to the face.
Wolf largely failed to condemn the widespread violence and pillaging, stating in a Saturday press release that demonstrators were “protesting violence and injustice that occurs far too often against people of color.”

Must not have been watching the greedy senseless looting and trashing of West Philly. Guessing the Governor’s neighborhood still has grocery and drug stores.
It almost seems as though Democrat officials are using these mobs to punish the voters for not embracing the surveillance society and Green New Deal.
But that would be unthinkable, right?

Violence is peace. Got it.
This combined with the shutdown will sink Rats. Unfortunately primaries are tomorrow, so RINOs will not be contested over the ChiCom Flu and Floyd hoaxes by new truly conservative candidates. I am wishing for a red wave in local elections this November, but I highly doubt anything will change in Rat strongholds. They are obviously low IQ stupid due to their race. You can't fix stupid.
Hey Tom- We’re not idiots-
Many Black folks are acting out their deeply seated racism, and noone is holding them to account for it-
The ones doing the looting burning and assaults, are not just all paid bad actors- they are ordinary citizens joining in whenever there is an opportunity to overwhelm law abiding citizens and beat the hell out of them- Mobs of citizens swarm to fight scenes- and join in, and mobs swarm to stores that are broken into and rob the place— and beat the hell out of anyone that tries to stop them- Even beating the hell out of a woman in a wheelchair-
Don’t piss on our legs and tell us it’s rainin out sir- We aint democrats- we aint stupid-
Instead of Trump using the usual rhetoric chiding worthless governors, he should present a 30 second tape of fires and looting in ___________ , USA and then point to the image of the mayor running that city. “THIS is the guy responsible for burning down your town.”
I copied this from someone’s post:
According to the store clerks, George attempted to make a purchase with a fake $20 bill. The clerk refused the money.
George left without incident but decided to hang out in front of the store, just standing around.
In the meantime, just for practice, the clerk notified the police of the incident. The police then rushed right over because, you know, police in big cities are usually free to rush over to check fake $20s from people who have already left the scene. Happens all the time.
Imagine their good fortune to find George still standing there. That’s what most people do after being caught with a counterfeit bill, right? Just walk outside and stand there.
I find it odd that these two men, Derek (the officer) and George, may have known each other well. They used to work together for 17 years, apparently.
I find it odd that the cop had his hands in his pockets while he put his knee on his friend’s throat. Very odd.
I find it odd that they did not just put him in the back seat of the cop car. They were literally standing right next to the door.
I find it odd that a man who couldn’t get air was able to yell out repeatedly for a very long period of time, and did not struggle to live. Why didn’t he call for help with all those people standing around filming him? He just laid there and passively “died.”
I find it odd that they just stood there and let people film this.
I find it odd that most of Derek’s weight is on his right knee, the one on the ground, not the left knee on his friend, George.
I find it odd the paramedics arrived on scene, approached so nonchalantly, then placed Derek’s very much alive (?) friend, George, into the ambulance without any sign of urgency.
I find it odd that Derek’s neighbors never knew he was an officer. They stated they never saw him wearing a uniform coming and going.
I find it VERY odd that a cop started the riots. Thank goodness for an ex who outed him.
I find it odd that nearly everyone who was arrested for rioting and looting were from out of state.
I find it odd that the National Guard was not brought in earlier, and that they were unable to get these riots under control immediately.
I find it odd that these staged events only happen in Democrat run cities.
I find it odd that this “racist” narrative happened shortly after Biden’s racist comment last week. I knew they were trying to distract us from something.
I find it odd that this happened just as COVID loses traction. Social distancing SUDDENLY flew out the window. Let’s hope the masks and fear soon follow.
I find it odd that COVID happened the moment the impeachment failed.
I find it odd the impeachment happened the moment that Russian hoax failed.
Can you see the pattern? Will you continue to chase the well orchestrated carrots? Or is there something in you that will stop for a minute and look for the truth?
This is very interesting.
Still a tragedy.
He is a dreamtard. Out of touch with reality, like typical libtard.
Nero claimed the same thing, just saying.................../s
I don’t know about that. But I hope you’re right.
Cop did not have his hands in his pockets. A black glove in front of black pants made it look that way. Apart from that, all things I have wondered as well. Although I did not know the bogus twenty never changed hands.
Another oddity- why did they relocate to the opposite corner? Better lighting for the camera? Bigger audience?
Pennsylvania Ping!
Please ping me with articles of interest.

Hearing reports from friends that they’re moving out into Northeast Philly and some of the suburbs. My daughter has to take her 3 year-old daughter to her allergist in an Bucks County area where there might be a “protest” gathering scheduled this evening. I am not happy about this at all, it’s scary. She can’t reschedule, as she needs to get a script for new epi-pens (potentially life-saving) and she cannot get those until they weigh and re-test my granddaughter.
Nothing is being done, peaceful events suddenly turn nasty and areas of Center City Philly are burning while mobs run through looting every store for blocks around. Meanwhile the Mayor, Police Chief & Governor sit around with their thumbs up their butts!
Why isn’t anything being done?? (Not faulting the regular cops here, they are way out-manned at this point, and Philly brass has already shown itself to NOT be on the sides of the police officers).
They hit Lord&Taylor, a very upscale store at the very suburban King of Prussia mall.
Philadelphia Mills Mall (previously called Franklin Mills Mall), in Philly on the border of Bucks County, was also hit
