That's OK because the mayor was black and the neighborhood was black (and it was even blacker after they got done with it).

Philadelphia police abruptly raided and destroyed the “Occupy ICE” encampment set up by protesters outside the Immigration and Customs Enforcement office in Center City on Thursday afternoon.
“Stay calm! Stay calm!” a protester shouted as police used bicycles to push through the encampment and knock down the protesters’ tents and canopies, which had been set up in the area since Monday evening as part of a national movement calling for the abolition of ICE. Local demonstrators also have called for the closure of the federal detention center in Berks County and an end to local collaboration with federal immigration officials.
The raid occurred about 1 p.m. Thursday, roughly 10 minutes after police spoke with protesters at the front of the camp on Eighth Street and asked them to move their water coolers and other supplies off the sidewalk. The protesters began to comply, and moments later, police then asked them to also clear a space in front of the federal building. While activist Aine Fox, a representative with the Up Against the Law Legal Collective, was attempting to clarify that request with police, other officers entered the camp through the back and began pushing through the area with bicycles.
A police spokesperson, Capt. Sekou Kinebrew, later said in an interview that protesters were given “numerous warnings” and opportunities to clear the affected areas before police took action to remove the structures because the encampment had been blocking “ingress and egress” to the building, which contains offices other than ICE. Some structures had been blocking a door, Kinebrew said, while others were blocking one of the bays to the building.
He declined to respond to allegations that police moved on the camp while some protesters were discussing how to respond, saying simply: “I do know warnings were given.”

I used to wonder how Hitler got people to kill for him.
I can see these unhinged liberals would be more than happy to, if they have tacit government approval

W. Wilson Goode. Purveyor of sound judgement in public safety.......
I’ve got extended family like this douche. They’re always pissed off and “fighting for a cause.” They also have a million different reasons why they failed to launch once reaching adulthood. If you suggest it’s a spiritual void, expect to be ridiculed for a belief in God.
Needless to say I just see them at funerals.
Philly?
Tell them to MOVE!
Thanks for posting!
I can’t remember when I’ve enjoyed a video more than this one.
(Well, since November 2016, that is.)
Another brainwashed drone.
Here’s another article that details how these ignoramuses, the PhillySocialists, organized and acquired food and funds, including a bail fund, within hours on social media:

I miss Frank. Here's his mural in South Philly, which the snowflakes want removed. He didn't put up with stupid leftists. He used to eat in the Italian restaurants in the City and would make the rounds of every table shaking hands before he left.
That was just one mayor, in 1985, and the resulting fire that destroyed a whole block of houses was a result of ordinance incompetence by the police.
Ditto!
Ping!
Police should have set up large screens and shown this video 24/7...

Wow - the loonies went too far even for Comrade Kenney - that is news.......
Thanks for the link. Nice insight that would be more main stream in Mother Jones or The Huffington Post.
Everyone knows where Six Pack Kenney lives. I would to see these unstable loons occupy his neighborhood instead of city hall but the progressives in Olde City would never allow themselves to be inconvenienced.
Looks like the POLI.C.E abolished the occutards.
Hah hah hah.
DC has a law that no more than 20 or 25 people are allowed to demonstrate without a permit on the city sidewalks. When CodePink neglected to get a permit for their hatefest against Walter Reed at the WR gates every Friday night, a freeper Marine went to the police station and applied for one for the exact spot they were occupying, plus two other corners, and he was able to oust them from the gates and install the DC Clhapter of FreeRepublic. So ya'll Philly freepers need to get on social media and find yourselves a group of patriots. I realize it's hard during the week, because patriots work, and slacker socialists don't...
