....Egg was still on the statue at 11 a.m., as a few officers on bicycles mulled near it....

What were they mulling over?

Anthony Rizzo is a damn fine first baseman, but he doesn’t deserve a statue yet.

I grew up just west of Philly. We are of German immigrant stock but my father had lots of Italian friends (some connected)and employed a bunch of them in his factory. I forget what year it was but there were black riots in the cities and the closest had just occurred in Newark and Philly was reported to be next in line. Rizzo was Chief of Police and addressed his cops with instructions that went something like “When you see a rioter holding a Molotov cocktail, draw your weapon. When you see him light it, cock your weapon. When you see him lifting his arm to throw it, shoot him.” As I recall, that word got out on the street and there wasn’t much action.

background:

After Charlottesville, spotlight falls on Rizzo memorials

No specific allegations seem to be raised, ever, but Rizzo was viewed as too un-PC. I don't remember him very well. I recall there were controversies when he was Police Commissioner, he was definitely a "law and order" kind of guy, but he was a Democrat of the time.

Frank Rizzo... wasn’t that the name of one of the Jerky Boys’ characters from back in the 90s?

Frank was the best mayor we ever had in Philly. He reminds me of Trump in some respects. Here he is taking on the press.
