It’s NOT Always Sunny in Philadelphia! By Chris Knight
It's Always Sunny in Philadelphia, is a long running American sit com which has been described thus: "the series follows the exploits of a group of narcissistic and sociopathic friends who run the Irish dive bar Paddy's Pub in South Philadelphia, Pennsylvania, but spend most of their free time drinking, scheming, arguing among themselves, and plotting elaborate cons against others, and at times each other, for personal benefit, financial gain, revenge, or simply due to boredom or inebriation." https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/It%27s_Always_Sunny_in_Philadelphia.
Philadelphia is far from being always sunny; in fact the contrary. However, there is now another take to Philadelphia which is moving ahead in the "coming anarchy stakes":
"From late on Saturday night through the early hours of Sunday morning, there were multiple clashes with police as authorities attempted to break up a series of illegal street takeovers…
Philadelphia continues its spiral into chaos under Democratic leadership, with violent mobs once again taking to the streets, this time attacking police officers and patrol cars in a brazen display of lawlessness.
According to reports from 6 ABC, hundreds of cars and massive crowds participated in illegal car meetups, causing widespread chaos that lasted from 9:30 p.m. Saturday until 4:30 a.m. Sunday.
At least 11 meetups took place, six of which turned into violent confrontations with police. The mayhem resulted in the hospitalization of one officer, while five police cars were heavily damaged.
These kids are completely and utterly out of control.
One of them even had a flamethrower that he used to create a ring of fire in the middle of one major intersection.
And when the police arrived at these events, these kids were not afraid to attack them at all…
"Everything they do is disruptive, they're ruining the quality of life. At one point, they had a flamethrower—yes, there's video with a flamethrower."
"They're able to disperse quickly and then reform at other locations. That's why we have officers dedicated. It's playing wack-a-mole. We hit them at once, and they move to another," he added.
"It was the aggressiveness at some of the locations — the incident outside of City Hall was aggressive. They physically went after our officers," Cram said. "They don't care about your safety, their own safety. You've all seen the videos of their behavior. How much chaos can they cause?"
When economic conditions deteriorate even more, the level of violence that will be seen in our rich and diverse land will be at premodernity levels.
