I knew we could do it. We just needed to set our minds to the task of becoming number 1. It just goes to prove, if you elect a Soros DA who refuses to prosecute violent criminals, a mayor with no balls, defund the police, and run the worst public school system in the nation, you can rise to the top as the most murderous city in America. That is no easy task when you are competing with Baltimore, Chicago, and DC. But we did it!!!
I’m just sorry (not sorry) to not witness it on a day to day basis anymore, as I haven’t entered that kill zone in over two years. I was thrilled to see zip code 19139 as one of the highest murder zones, as it encompasses the entire 30 Blocks of Squalor, where my peeps reside and so many stories were written. I’m tearing up thinking about all the effort put into getting that murder rate to an all-time high.
And Democrats will be overwhelmingly re-elected in the next election. Maybe raising taxes and giving the union teachers 10% raises will do the trick. Don’t forget to duck if you are ever lucky enough to drive the 30 Blocks of Squalor.
Philadelphia’s Murder Rate Highest Among Largest US Cities
Last spring, Philadelphia Mayor Jim Kenney announced a series of police reforms within the 6,500-member police department. A year later, his administration has succeeded in implementing several of those changes, while others are a work in progress. But over the last year, did those meaningful police reforms result in better public safety?
The answer is no, as Philadelphia was just ranked the highest murder rate per capita among the US’ top largest cities.
According to CBS Philly, the number of homicides across the metro stands at 314 on Thursday, up 35% from this time last year. The city has become more dangerous as gun violence is out of control.
About a third of the violence happens in just five zip codes in North Philadelphia, Hunting Park, West Philadelphia, Kingsessing, Kensington, and Port Richmond.
Philadelphia is on pace to have one of its most violent years on record.
Meanwhile, there are still cries from liberal lawmakers in the metro area to defund the police towards community efforts to thwart gun violence.
Kenney has said he doesn’t want to reduce the size of the police force, especially when violent crime is surging. However, he has proposed to keep police funding flat.
Overall, Democratic mayors in 20 of the nation’s 25 largest cities slashed police funding as they spent millions of tax dollars on their private security forces. Their progressive policies have primarily backfired as metro areas become more violent.
Defunding the police is flawed because it takes away from proven community policing.
Podcast king Joe Rogan recently warned the progressive campaign to defund police departments could transform parts of the US into a lawless state like Mexico.
And judging by the out-of-control homicide wave in Philadelphia, that may already be the case.

I lived in Bucks County in the 1980s. On weekends I loved my forays into the Italian neighborhood street markets in south Philly to stock up on prosciutto, cannolis, guanciale, fresh calamari, and tripe sandwiches. I’m so glad I got to witness it before it turned into Somalia. What a fucking shame.
Congrats, Philly!
And Admin, for not having to up-armor the family truckster for the old commute.
Just one request.
Can we PLEASE, in the name of all that is Holy, STOP using the term “gun violence”?
Sub Saharan violence?
Sub species violence.
Criminal violence?
Jogger violins?
Memphrica got as high as #2, but could never overcome E St. Louis, IL for the top spot. They are usually in the top 5.
They got a new black female police director recently and today she held a “Stop the Violence” march in the “community”. I expect to hear about a few shootings and at least one fatality on the morning news. They are, however, going to crack down on speeders around the city. This should do a lot to slow down the violence and it will add to the coffers significantly.
LMAO Stop the violence march. Yeah, that should strike fear in them. These people truly play with themselves.
There is a stop the violence protess in black cities all the time. They continue to have the protesses because they always stop the violens.
Stop the violence protest in the afternoon and go make an unfathered baby in the evening. It is a vicious cycle the government has created.
Just the way william penn intended.
Those freakin’ Amish! Not only do they disdain the CoVid but also driving those stinking buggies in from around Lancaster way and causing all that murder and mayhem in Philthydelphia.
Just shameful. Shameful.
/s
Gallop-bys are the deadliest of gun assaults.
I got so hooked on 30 Blocks I subscribe to kimgary’s channel and watch the dregs of Kensington Avenue once in a while just to remind myself how very blessed I am to be where I am.

Just die already. Nothing personal. Just quit absorbing our children’s resources. I’m sorry you got fucked up on drugs and it ruined your life. But for the sake of my children, it’s time for you to go.
Holy shit what mess. Institutions and a serious clean up is needed. Allowing people to destroy themselves is no better than murder.
Just don’t cut the fentanyl and keep the narcan in the box. Things will even out quickly.
I never understood why they keep reviving the same people over and over again. It is obvious they want to die, but the paramedics break out the narcan and bring them back.
I do not know how any of these cities overrun by this human refuge and refuse can ever recover.
They are all Detroit in the making.
What percentage of street homeless get government subsidies? Anyone have any ideas?
I would guess nearly all of them. Drug addiction is a disability according to SS.
None of it makes any fucking sense, does it?
You spent enough time in government to understand that making sense is not part of the requirement for a program to exist and if you fix the problem, all the jobs, along with the budget are gone.
How about a 30 blocks re-post, Admin? We’re hungry…
All the 30 Blocks posts were lost in a website mishap. Sad but true.
Google still has links to some. Don’t know if they work but this one does.
What about the wayback machine if you want to recover them?
Some things are best left in the murky wayback, especially now.
I just got a notification of a new video!
America doesn’t have a gun problem.
America has a negroid problem.
In the last 20 years I’ve met aspiring, intelligent, socially adept young black people who are fine folk and will benefit society as a whole. It doesn’t overcome the fact that the majority of blacks are of inferior intellect and oft times possess a savage disposition more akin to a hominid than a modern human being. I don’t know what the “work around” is with that problem. I simply don’t. I just avoid black people whenever possible. By in large, nothing good is going to come of such interaction.
glad you’re not too quiet, Mike…
I’m inclined to agree Mike, given the exposure of utter Neanderthal violence against white farmers in South Africa recently on TBP – it made me sick to my stomach. As a reminder:
The world has a negroid problem. On second thoughts, maybe that’s unfair to Neanderthals.
Negroids aren’t Neanderthals. People with Neanderthal DNA in the mix are more intelligent and disease resistant. Negroid is too similar to chimpanzee and chimpanzees tend to rip faces off.
Yep, my bad 🙂
Rev Jesse Lee Peterson makes this claim all the time…”not all, not all, not all, but most” black people are built for destruction.
Young black men raised without fathers commit as much violent crime and the other 98% of America and it started with LBJ’s Not so Great Society.
It’s a kind of stupid passed down by their parents and the environment they are raised in.
Like when people hate on Jews and then pass this ignorance on to their kids.
I am sure that Keshia Lance Bottoms will be working hard starting Monday to put Atlanta back on top.
I can´t believe that is really her name. Like someone said, right out of an Austin Powers movie.
Beetlejuice (Lori Lightfoot) must be so jealous.
Ha! Funny you should say that. Just ran across this yesterday…
She can make babies cry.
Grown-ups too.
That’s terrifying and hilarious at the same time.
It’s the bouffant brillo pad hairdo that makes the whole dyke thing work for her …
Lots of crime in the Southwest …. and Deep South.
I used to live in Taos. The crime and drug addiction is off the charts which is why I left and moved to Dallas. Dallas was safer than New Mexico and New Mexico has lots of La Raza types who will kill you if they catch you alone and white. The map leaves off lots of areas up north.
The Texas, AZ and CA borders have something in common….Mexico. La Razas in the drug trade also infest those areas. Which is worse? La Raza or Le Ghetto Vibrance?
La Raza tend to be smarter and much more deadly than the dark skinned urban dwellers
Statistics are useful tools, but can help mask a problem. Cook County, IL has several million people to dilute the massive amount of crime committed in a handful of zip codes while Hardeman County, TN has a few thousand people that magnify the handful of violent crimes that occur each each year. A better look would be crime by zip code and you would see all of the very dark red in the metropolitan areas, even if you made it per 1,000 people.
St.Louis City is not in the class of large cities any more.Less than 300,000 population. This week St. Louis did it’s best to be a first class Democrat shithole. 3 solved murder cases were dismissed because the Circuit Attorney failed to show up in court to pursue the charges. Incompetence or intentional ?? Who knows? Niggers are both.
It is intentional. That is the same Soreass DA who went after the couple defending their home from the rioters. Murderers go free while those defending themselves get arrested and persecuted.
Killadelphia for the win.
