City Of Philadelphia Advises Residents On What To Do If Ordered To ‘Shelter In Place’
CBS Philly ^ | 4/24/13

Posted on 04/27/2013 10:28:35 PM PDT by Kartographer

During last week’s events in Boston, residents were told to “shelter in place,” which raises the question, would you know what to do if a similar order was issued in Philadelphia?

In the Emergency Management section of the City of Philadelphia’s website, there are now some guidelines for residents to follow.

First and foremost, the city says residents should be prepared to shelter in place for at least three days, which means stocking supplies like medications, food, batteries, drinking water, flashlights and more inside of an emergency kit.

” Options for Consideration” is filled with numerous suggestions for people confronting an “active shooter,”

I think we should consider all armed bureaucrats “active shooters”.

You are fooling yourself if you think blacks are going to fix Philly. They are the ones who ruined it.

Do you realize that there are ladies present on this forum? I am one, and I request, please, that you proofread your posts so that there is no offensive language in them.

I realize that there are many topics here that get many of us riled up, but, please, sir, consider tempering your word choice. You can still make an excellent argument without employing vulgarities. Thank you.

Shelter in place?

Then how are these people supposed to use their free EBT cards and buy their crack?

On the other hand, at least they will be able to communicate with their friends on their free 0bamafoams, so all is not lost!

What is worse is for the past week they have been many many FReepers defending this S#!+!

Many freepers are not by any means conservative. Do you remember the nauseating day in the life of GWB threads? The man was at best a rino, but you'd think he was the second coming of George Washington to read the estrogen fueled comments on those threads. Then there are the cop worshipers. We've seen enough of those in the last few days. Then there are the gun control background check advocates, The list is endless. And this is what you find on a supposedly CONSERVATIVE forum.

Nobody needs to worry their pointed little heads I’m sure it’s just a coincidence that al Quaeda is attempting to get their hands on Syrian bio/chem weapons and Philly is giving instructions on shelter in place for a bio/chem weapons attack.

Yes it’s just a coincidence.

Now everybody turn, face DC and sing “All Hail Obama” and feel good.

What happened in Boston was clearly called a voluntary advisory and not an order, and there were no reports of police harassment from residents who were traveling from one place to another in the Boston area.
True ! I work in downtown Boston everyday. No one was making you stay off the streets, No one was stopping vehicle traffic. I was walking around and stopped to talk to many Police officers about what was going on, while wearing a black backpack. The city was empty because most people used it as an excuse not to go to work that day.

I’m totally for “sheltering in place” - until gunpoint, that is. :(

I may be wrong , but what I'm seeing is a repeat of what the USSR had planned during the Cuban Missile Crisis.

The Ruskies never intended for the missiles to be released, just threaten to release them causing mass panic and causing cities within the missile's range to be evacuated.

The only way to control the panicked masses would have been to declare martial law which would have spelled the end of the US as we know it. The USSR would win and bring down the US without firing a shot.

Several years ago there was talk of “American Hiroshima” chem/bio/nuke dirty bomb attacks on multiple cites.

It's no different today than it was in the 60’s, only way to control the panicked masses, martial law.

Your homes are now jail cells. We don’t want you to be responsible for your own neighborhoods. Try to help us and we’ll shoot you. Try to leave and we’ll shoot you. Try to prevent us from a warrantless search of your home and we’ll shoot you. Try to assert your rights, we’ll shoot you. I hate this socialist police state. Demonic jack-booted thug assholes. Thinking they’re Joe Awesome and everyone loves them. Get treated like a frikking criminal cell block search in your own damn home and see if you still think cops are awesome.

It might be what it takes to fully waken the People to start to resist - once they shoot a few of us for "refusing to obey" it will shine a very bright light on what they imagine our places to be...

You mean the heat of foul language? Well, unless someone comes up with a system whereby threads are rated for offensive language, how am I going to know to stay out of said threads?

Really, I do not think I am asking too much. Would you let the guys use vulgar language in the presence of your mother?

I don't think it would bother her. She's dead and has been so for many years.

I just asked my doctor if he would write me a script for a 60 or 90 day supply in case of emergency in addition to my regular script, and he said no problem. I filled it at Walmart, and paid cash.

Took the other script to my regular pharmacy. No problem. The insurance company dictates that script shall not be filled until you are down to your last 3 pills from the last fill date.

Sometimes, I put one pill back in a spare bottle each month too.

Thanks for the clarification.

I remember now that it was the insurance company restricting the amount.

I understand it, I just think it's not all that important.
