Reply to comment by no483828 in This sounds crazy but as of yesterday, we are less than 5 months away from the PA primary and the winner of the mayoral race will be the 100th mayor of the city of Philadelphia. November is an afterthought. The more candidates that run, the winner may snag it with just a one percent difference. by joeltheprocess76

We need to vote him out. His refusal so fail prosecute violent criminals like the mentally ill lady punching/attacking random women in the City is not ok.

Prisons and hard line policing are not the solution to crime. If they were USA would be safest country in the world

It is EASY to say this when you haven't been the victim of a heinous unprovoked crime. I have been assaulted in the El. My neighbors have been burglarized. My neighborhood's ATM is bombed repeatedly. Try raising children in that environment. I say throw all the VIOLENT low life criminals in jail - and ban guns permanently - (this will never happen).

I am literally born and raised Philadelphian. And yes I have been robbed multiple times. Locking everyone up perpetuates the problems we both experience. Raising the minimum wage would go further to reduce crime than any tough DA would

That I agree with you 100 percent. Minimum wage and high quality education and free extracurricular activities for all youth. That being said, anyone reckless enough to bomb an ATM in a residential neighborhood or randomly shoot or harm innocent people needs to suffer consequences. It is not ok to hurt people.
