Eight students are shot after gunmen open fire on Philadelphia
SEPTA bus stop as the teens waited for a ride home from their
high school

Eight Northeast High School students were shot after gunmen
opened fire at a SEPTA bus stop on Wednesday around 3pm

The students, between the ages of 15 and 17 were injured
after three gunmen exited a vehicle and fired more than
30 times

This is the fourth shooting at a SEPTA bus stop in the
past few days

. . .

OK ... WTF ???

I can see a gang hit on some individual or small group
of rival gangstas ... but FOUR identical attacks in just
a few days at random bus stops - this is something out
of the usual. Smells more of "terrorism" than the usual
gangster crap, an attempt to intimidate the masses for
as-yet unknown ends.

Philly officials resisted "defund" politics - but only
half-way - refusing to INCREASE the police budgets
despite inflation issues.

However the DA :

Philadelphia has endured the worst violent crime wave in the
city’s long and storied 340-year history. More than 1500 people
have been murdered since 2020, and there doesn’t appear to be
any end to the bloodshed anytime soon. The city’s district
attorney, Larry Krasner, implemented criminal justice reform
policies that have contributed to the surge in violence. Late
last year, the Pennsylvania House of Representatives voted
to impeach the radical left-wing DA. The trial was set to
begin on Jan. 18.

They tried to impeach the DA, but fell a few votes short.

SO ... Philly GETS exactly what it ASKED for.
