Democrat Congresswoman Mary Gay Scanlon was carjacked and robbed at gunpoint on Wednesday afternoon shortly after finishing a meeting at FDR Park, her office and police officials confirmed.

Scanlon and other elected officials met to discuss constituent concerns around ongoing development plans for FDR Park, a sprawling and heavily used green space at the southern edge of the city. It’s blocks away from the sports complex where the Eagles, Sixers, Flyer and Phillies play.

The carjacked politicians will simply use this as a platform to introduce even more draconian “gun-control” measures that will only impact law-abiding citizens. They may even throw in some funding for ‘midnight basketball’ in order to prevent the ‘disenfranchised youths” committing these crimes from the boredom that they say leads to criminal behavior. They just need an outlet for their “energy” and maybe a few hugs.

arrests are already made.....if that happened to anyone of us, they would have filled out the reports, stuck them in a drawer and that would be the end of it...

There are two groups that should never be carjacked: politicians and drug cartel leaders. Your chance of success is nil.

Obviously the carjacker was a Right Wing, White Supremesist, member of a militia.

The jokes write themselves, but I do hope it makes her stop and think about things at least a little bit.

This is why I’m about to go so “rural” that I’m going to have to pipe in the sunshine. I’m done with cities, probably for the remainder of my days.

Fortunately, she was fully vaccinated and boostered, which prevented this carjacking from progressing to more serious harm or death.
