The law really needs to get these little bastards off of the streets and throw all of them in juvenile jail! I hate the fuckin kids of today!!! NO RESPECT FOR SHIT

NO ARRESTS, JUST CITATIONS

wait till 1 of the new liberal democrats takes office it’s gonna get a whole lot worse

If they hurt the police, civilians are in great danger.

Soft on crime is making the city better, and quickly too!

Start shooting.

Non white teenagers **

Any arrest ? Where are the parents ? They’re probably the ones out doing the shootings ! Lead by example 😂😂

The welfare babies are coming of age, the women plop them out to get more free stuff a month didn't give the poor kids the time of day

🙏🏼💙🖤🤍

how were there only 3 arrests?

Let’s blame guns, climate change and racism…….said every lib ever

Mayor Kenney's clown 🤡 🤡 response....

Someone’s gonna get tired of this and drive their car into these kids

Keep that thang on u at all times

3 whole arrests? That should throw some fear into the little scumbags.

Can we call them hoodlums or is that not allowed?

And it’s only April.

SCUM

Savage violent culture

I hate this Democratic fukin city

500+ kids and only 3 arrests? 😂

If they are juniveniles start punishing the parents also. This dumb shit has to stop ASAP

You know, if you funded community rec centers and things like that, INSTEAD of the cops, these things wouldn't happen. Idle hands are the devil's play things!

Give them back their night sticks

This is great - right near where i work. I'm not there at night for sure.

“Market East” right where the new Sixers arena is proposed. Just imagined these kids will have the chance to harm up to 17,000 people once a game lets out.

No need to explain. A blind person knows what group it was.

Damn white supremacists again..
