You are quite right. Strawbridges has the right to get this stopped. But some people here post as if busting pickle parks is more important than busting burglars, muggers, car theives, etc. It isn't, and until cops with as big a budget as the Philly PD figure out how to use their resources effectively, having them chase after whatever somebody thinks is icky, is counterproductive.

"Icky" isn't the problem breaking the law and then publishing it is. And this goes back to my statement about Philly trying to improve itself with tourism and business and these illegal antics undermine that. Yes B&E's are a problem but here you have perps committing crimes on provate property and then drawing you a map and telling everyone where they will do it again- what do they expect would happen?

I don't care about the g@y part too much- except that this is good ammo for the "we're like everyone else" line- it's the illegal and lewd acts treated as normal/acceptable.
