    it must have been all those art students.

    the other neighborhood mentioned, University City, is home to Penn and Drexel.

    interesting, s'all...



    edit:
    I think you are thinking University City as "West Philadelphia"

    Center City is indeed "central"

    both neighborhoods are home to the major colleges and universities, however.

    I wonder if Kyle Lowry and Marcus Morris, both from Philly, go around beating up white people when they go back home.

    Penn isn't quite West Philly....and I did spend 4 years back when it was far more sketchy than it is today (now Penn is more like a prep school) as it's my alma mater.

    The Flash mobs in the article were in center city which is on the other side of the river. Penn is the start of West Philly (right across from Center City) but the areas that were bad are further in and actually have improved a lot over the years through gentrification. So I am not sure what your experience was but to each their own. As far as city campuses go, it sure beat Columbia, Drexel, Temple or most other ones I've been to.

    I'll see your random beatings and raise you a random killing:

    <iframe width="560" height="349" src="http://www.youtube.com/embed/dPbMsZM-eO4" frameborder="0" allowfullscreen></iframe>

    A senseless murder easily trumps your few stories of "run-by" beatings and vandalism. Furthermore, this is certainly not an isolated incident--we've heard of these types of killings for years!

    Logical conclusion: this is an epidemic!

    An issue this important clearly needs its own thread. Everyone needs to be aware that white people are on the prowl--I mean seriously, they're everywhere! And YOU could be their next victim! Why hasn't the media jumped on this story and why haven't white people been condemning the acts?! Their silence obviously makes them complicit in the acts themselves.

    If you're not willing to acknowledge this serious problem that our nation is facing, then you are clearly in denial and just trying to protect the white people.

    If it had been a white person killed everyone would have been charged with murder. None of this let the girls walk and reduce charges to simple assault.

    ...or maybe not.

    samuel, you are unable to refute the facts. you have been and continue to be in denial about the fact that the wisconsin incident was not isolated and the fact that social media is being utilized. despite me posting 10 or so articles that prove the contrary you continue to deny. clearly, you would rather be wrong than happen agree once in awhile with people you dont like. thats fine w/ me, but you should realize how stupid you look right now.

    you cant "dignify" it w/ a response b/c to do so would be to admit that you have been pretty much wrong on everything you have said throughout this entire thread.

    ah...the race card! well played samuel! of course pointing out facts and posting articles to back up what you are saying makes you a racist! should the black mayor of philly or the FBI also be over at stormfront?

    but arguing w/ people for the sake of arguing, even when you and everyone else knows you are wrong is.

    there is no pleasing some of yall...you and others asked for proof that the incident in wisconsin was not isolated - i provided multiple articles proving that it was not. and for some reason yall got really upset when basso suggested social media played a part. people asked for proof that this was the case. i posted multiple articles discussing social media being used in these flash mobs.

    and i find it ironic that the person going around using the term "twitterblackies" and "twitternegros" is accusing others of being racists - that kind of idiocy says alot more about what kind of person you are than it does about me or basso or anyone else who you disagree with.

    i suggest that you take a look in the mirror (grab a couple phone books to stand on if you need to) and ask yourself if you are conducting yourself in a dignified manner.

    and as usual you are unable to discuss the facts. all you are able to do is call me names and then run away like a scared coward.

    While jo mama prepares for an upcoming race war by googling local news reports, here's a great article on the history of this heretofore unknown phenomenon of young black kids committing crimes in philadelphia ....until of course twitters reared it's ugly head.

    http://www.philly.com/philly/news/l...en_mob_attacks_are_nothing_new.html?viewAll=y

    The scary thing, is this actually happened in the 1980's.....Maybe it's actually future blacks who have invented a time machine and are coming back to get us in the 80's, Terminator style? Scary.

    Anyways..........I'm sure when Local NEWS runs an expose on time-traveling black terminators coming to get you, jo mama and basso will be on the case!

    PS joseph - nice triple post brah.

    I like how SamFisher doesn't want to admit he's wrong when the mayor of Philadelphia says there is a rise in black youth mob violence that organize via Twitter, the attacks happen in Center City in central Philly and not west Philly, and that he dismisses local articles when he provides them and ignores the national articles provided to him.

    Clever lawyering there!

    Wrong about what? :confused:

    My main point is that this thread is started by a jackass with a penchant for racewarring on the BBS for ****s & giggles.

    My secondary point is tha int a local media-generated pretend crisis, breathlessly repeated by local news viewers and chron.com commenters, about a rise twitter darkies out to get you & your family probably isn't much to worry about, insofar as street crime has happened, and will continue to happen, before & after twitter.

    My third point was a pretty goddamned sweet Bel-Air'ing which hasn't happened here for at least 3 years.

    If you disagree with any of these, you're welcome to your opinion, seal yourself in your bat-cave, turn on Channel 2, and I'll fight these facebook thugs myself out here in the real world with my sharp wits, and laugh at you and the rest of the North Harris County Community College class of 95's best and brightest.

    Oh, and you may want this guy's #:

    We just need to ship everyone back to their country of origin, give it back to the American Indians.
