Philadelphia To Waive All Protest-Related Code Violation Notices Issued, Mayor Jim Kenney Says
CBS 3 PHILLY ^ | 08 JULY 2020 | CBS 3 PHILLY

PHILADELPHIA (CBS) — Philadelphia will waive all protest-related code violation notices issued from demonstrations between May 30 and June 30, Mayor Jim Kenney said Wednesday. The approved Law Department and Office of Administrative Review recommendation include disorderly conduct, failure to disperse, curfew violations and related offenses.

More than 750 citations were issued.

“My decision to wave these violations is not a statement on the validity of the individual citations,” Kenney said in a statement. “Rather, it is a recognition of the core concerns that caused thousands to demonstrate on the streets of Philadelphia. In waiving these notices, I recognize that those issues are vitally important, that the pain of those marching is very real, and that their message — Black lives matter — needs to be heard every day until systemic racism is fully eradicated from this city and nation.”

Wow.

Let’s see...defund the police force, give notice crimes are not going to be prosecuted against those whose ideology is in line with the mayor and his allies, and...

Watch the body count rise.

THIS is why there will be shooting before Nov 3. They want a revolt. This Communist just told his troops to burn the place down.

Do we shoot, or give them matches?

These people are truly enemies of the state. That’s not a statement that is influenced by bigotry or ignorance. It’s a fact Jack.

The pièce de résistance.

If you paid the fine for the ticket issued to you, you can call the city for a refund.

Hey come on now at least my hometown in Philly isn’t in the news like New York and Atlanta with all these killings right?

Phillies actually a pretty cool town people are pretty mellow I like to have fun

I was joking the other day about the sister city out here Oakland California

I said pretty much the whole town is like that chop zone or Chaz zone

and they don’t really need to wall off a few blocks.

No really the reason why and places like Oakland they don’t riot same thing in Philly this because the weather is much better

the weather up in Seattle sucks

Not just Philly....there’s NYC, Chitcago, Seattle, LA, and on and on.

Isn’t it something how ALL/MOST of these lib ran Mayor’s and Govs have lost all reason, and have allowed such destruction of their cities, by thugs who get off Scott-free, while forcing law abiding citizens to lock down and mask up....all at the same time?

All coordinated.

Who’s paying these clowns off?

I’d love to see the donations and tax records of all of them.
