[Manxdriver]

I saw one in broomall at a porche shop, license plate read manxdrvr (something like that)

Wasn*t me!
I*ve been thinking of selling advertising space on the sides. Think I could make any money?

Sure, depends on the target market.

I need to take my wife to the Hospital at the University of PA on Wednesday morning and I am wondering how bad things are there.

All I see on the news is rioting, shootings, looting, the TV news make it look like the city is out of control.

Any and all information on what to look for and where not to go will be greatly appreciated.

Are you taking about HUP at 34th and Spruce? My nephew has been going there for treatments twice a week throughout all of this a problem. He was there yesterday.

Everything has been peaceful. The Opportunists had their 15min of fame. Reform is the goal now.

wew3,

We were actually at the Pearlman center across the street.

I hope your nephew is doing well, UPenn is a great place if you need medical attention.

This should really be in the "Phillycide" thread.

Tyshsawn Woods' murder happened against the backdrop of protests following the death of George Floyd. Inspector Wood has been outspoken about the uptick in city violence and homicides on social media.
"I would love to see the same energy that we have for ending racism, and police brutality and reform, be put towards ending some of the gun violence in our cities," said Wood.

As the call for action for young people grows, Woods said, "When you see your friends going down the wrong way, get involved, try to talk them down."

Maybe if Tyshawn wasn't hanging around with thugs, he'd still be alive. But it's "Gun Violence" that's the problem, not THUG VIOLENCE, right?

He's doing good. He goes the main hospital across the street from the Perelman Center. My M-I-L goes to Perelman for her treatments. My wife and I, we get to spend our time at ChoP, so we are pretty familiar with the area. Never had a problem.
