Nearly a dozen people – including a 15-year-old – were shot overnight after looting and rioting in Philadelphia erupted for a second straight night despite pleas for peace from the family of a Black man whose police-related death sparked the unrest.

About 1,000 people took the streets of the city of Brotherly Love late Tuesday night and into Wednesday morning purportedly to demand justice for the death of Walter Wallace Jr., who was fatally shot by police on Monday.

Instead, the protests quickly devolved into violent riots and looting of stores across the city. Crowds of dozens were seen ransacking local and big-name stores, including a Walmart and a Foot Locker.

The victim is only a victim of his own stupidity.

Yeah, because looting and rioting brings about justice.

SlightlyOffensive reporter attacked for filming inside Walmart and being white... a BLM-offensive thing I gather.

I wonder how will Philadelphia respond if a well-known eatery like Pat’s King of Steaks, Genos Steaks or John’s Roast Park gets ransacked.

Please for peace from the family.

Snort.

They’re probably afraid this is poisoning the jury pool for the civil case they’re planning.

Urban America is becoming unlivable. Both commercial and residential real estate is declining in value due to much less demand. No rational person wants to invest or locate a business in these urban, Democrat controlled areas.It will get much worse.

Philadelphia needs to become a desert. Fence them in. No food stores. No Pharmacies. No Businesses. Starve these Marxists out.

This is going to remove any doubt about Trump winning PA.

It will drive suburban voters into his camp.
And if Philly is on fire on Tuesday it can’t be used as a fake vote factory.

like clockwork, the local newspapers are telling us Wallace:

- Loved his momma.

- was aspiring rapper.

- loved his eight (!!!) kids.

- was loved by neighbors.

- quiet and friendly guy.

The victims are the ones being attacked, not the thug who got himself killed.
