Cool, so rampant crime will continue unabated in the city because Krasner thinks going after illegal weapons possession is tantamount to the war on drugs.

It couldn't be the lack of police because they were abusing the disability program right?
Or the civil jobs the uniforms were filling?
Or their attitude "We run the city?"
Nah it couldn't be leadership telling the unis to quiet quit to spite themselves?

Yeah definitely couldn’t be the FOP & COP coddling the troops while encouraging them to do nothing so they can get pay bumps and special perks… and it most definitely has nothing to do with poverty and the inability to access the economy in a meaningful way

The cops suck, but that doesn't change the fact the under Krasner the DAO became a dysfunctional mess that stopped going after illegal weapons arrests, and continues to fuck up court cases by being repeatedly unprepared for them, resulting in violent offenders being released back on to the street where they go on to kill innocent people.
Philly gun arrests are on a record pace, but convictions drop under DA Krasner
More than 70 lawyers hired by Philly DA Larry Krasner have left. Some say the office is in disarray.

From the article you linked:
>....more cases being tossed out by judges because witnesses didn’t show up in court.
So if the cops don't show up to court, how can the DA not drop the case? The police are trying to make the DA look bad instead do doing the actual fucking jobs. Bootlickers like you can't even read the articles you link, you just assume it proves your incorrect viewpoint.

You folks are hilarious. It’s all Larry’s fault! Crime everywhere! You’re a joke.

I love how Krasners biggest supporters are suburbanites who don't live here.
His failure to go after guns has directly fuelled the record setting amounts of homicide and shootings, not to mention his decision to not go after shoplifting, which has directly led to a dramatic increase retail theft.

Lived in South Philly for 15 years, but go off! Literally all of your posts are about crime. Sounds like you’re scared of the big city.
AbsentEmpire t1_j2ezuws wrote
What a fucking joke of a comment all my post are not about crime, an easily verified fact. I've also lived in Philly my entire life, double the time you've spent in South Philly, and not in the nice neighborhoods you're likely in.
But thanks for proving my prior comment about Krasners incompetent management of the DAO and failure to go after guns correct by trying to make a lame personal attack rather than addressing the actual facts, how very Trumpian of you.

I’m sorry, only half of your posts. I’m so sorry I haven’t lived here longer than you, sounds like you’ve had such a tough life living in terrible neighborhoods. You should love your city more.
Note how nobody likes your comments. You’re one of the assholes that hates any sort of change in your city and thinks anyone who wasn’t born here should leave.

I don't give a shit that a circle jerk of mostly 20 something suburbanites don't like my factually verifiable comments.
And in other posts ragging on Philly I do defend the city, and frequently demand better for it. Which also doesn't change that my easily verified post history in the sub is primarily not about crime, but that would be an inconvenient fact for your lame personal attack.
Doesn't change the facts that Krasner, along with Kenney have been a fucking disaster. Blindly supporting a fuck up like Krasner because Harrisburg doesn't like him doesn't make him any less of a fuck up.

I'm third gen Philadelphian, my adult kids live here, as do I. Krasner isn't incompetent, cops are entitled infants who can't stand oversight and have been on a soft strike for years. Incidentally, the crime stats have been dropping for decades, although the gun violence rate is a serious problem that police have never historically been capable of solving or deterring. Fortunately we do have a lot of data supporting funding public education, healthcare, housing being the way to reduce crimes committed by working class people.
Also why don't those whining about Krasner ever post about wage theft and white collar crime and corporate bail outs, and paying for abusive cops on taxpayers dime? Let's take those fines out of police pension funds and let them start policing their own behaviors.

Can't prosecute someone if they're not arrested.
When will the cops start making arrests?
AbsentEmpire t1_j2epnwq wrote
They have been, they've made a record amounts of illegal weapons arrests, yet prosecution rates dropped under Krasner. Shockingly when you have a position on guns to right of the NRA like Krasner does, it tends to fuel a rise in shootings.

Under DA Krasner, more gun-possession cases get court diversionary program
