7 arrested after vandalizing federal buildings on New Year’s Eve in Philadelphia
KTLA ^ | 01/01/2021

Posted on 01/01/2021 1:50:55 PM PST by BenLurkin

A group of people dressed in black vandalized at least two federal buildings in downtown Philadelphia on New Year’s Eve, and police said they recovered Molotov cocktails and other suspicious devices as they arrested seven of them...

Officers spotted about 50 people, all in black, around 8:30 p.m. Thursday at the historic U.S. Customs House, police said.

And a 25-year-old man was seen throwing a brick through the windows of a federal building and courthouse shortly before 9 p.m., police said. He fled with a 24-year-old man and two 23-year-old women, all of whom were arrested.

Damage to the building was estimated at about $3,000. Anti-police and anti-prison graffiti were scrawled on walls, a sheriff’s van was defaced and several windows were broken.

This is of NO import!

Philly DA is a Soros butt boy, and will by now, have released these varmits on no cash bail!

Dressed in black? Molotov cocktails? Must be the pesky Amish again.

Although I’m sure if I were to continue to read the article I would find the media mentioning Auntie Fa.

They’re probably surprised they’re got arrested.

In cities with Soros backed DA’s who also are defunding the police, they will start seeing this type of thing more often.

I can guarantee you if the criminals behind this attack were part of some right wing group you would be hearing about this 24/7

Public hanging would be appropriate after quick, fair trial and conviction, of course.

Antifa-They were breaking store windows.Shocked some got arrested.If it's Federal the DA will not be handling it.My guess is they suspected a protest the next day and this was a warm up.

Give them toothbrushes and some muriatic acid and let them scrub off all the graffiti that appears on the building for the next 6 months.

>> Philly DA is a Soros butt boy <<

TRUE but US Attorney William M. McSwain is an ass kicker. So there is a good chance they will get the book thrown at them.

Sweet Justice, perhaps?
