Admittedly stupid after I considered the media coverage, but they certainly didn't put any kind of concentrated effort on the Phillies to examine the relationship between the parking lots, McFadden's, and CBP security. And that's really what is needed. You ought to be able to go to a game on Tuesday night, Wednesday night and not deal with a total shitshow.
This is almost the exact same reaction the Phillies had when an argument over a spilled drink at McFadden's led to a murder in the parking lot of CBP. Oh wait. No, they did nothing, and the Philly media basically made sure it went away.
@Desi_Relaford: Picking up girls he could have fathered, then having them do his kid's birthday shopping? Fleeing to New York because he thought he deserved national stardom with THAT face and personality? Even on air he manages to come off like a snarky know-it-all jackass... coupled with the inability to see that younger women only love that he's on TV and has money.... but I still don't think we can do him justice. Don't leave out the fact that he still thought he deserved all this after blowing a massive storm prediction, or how he slunk back from New York... he is the very definition of the Famous for Philly phenomenon.
@92BuickLeSabre: Who is like, 23. The first two sadly don't take out the immense faux-mature attitude of the "engaged to a 30 yro football star" 23 year old girl.
@duurtlang: It gives you a hell of lot of legal rights... if you're going to give a career to raise children, or you're going to slow it down a bit, or if you move into a home and you're not on the deed - the law provides ways to deal with all of that if you divorce that are clearer and slightly easier to deal with than if you're not married. I can understand that some people feel comfortable knowing either can walk away with little consequence but there's a lot of relationships that aren't on equal footing. Those people end up screwed if they don't get married.
I'm going to be the first one to jump to the conclusion that someone wanted to hurt people attending the MLK Day parade. It's a lot, I know, to decide so based on the huge assumption that a human being (could have been a dog, cat, wild coyote), placed a backpack (the article doesn't specify whether it was a backpack or knapsack and I think it's important we know before we can discuss anything about this article any further), on a parade route (the coyote, for example, would not have the intelligence to know that a parade was going on that day), that happened to be on a totally random Monday that many people get the day off from work for in honor of a man named Dr. Martin Luther King (Dr. of what? If he was an abortion doctor you can understand why he'd be a target. Many people feel very strongly that abortion is murder, and while I don't condone violence, I do understand that they think they are stopping more murder), and either with the help of a human or by totally randomly pillaging a bomb depot, was able to carry that knapsack/backpack onto the parade route and drop it.
If it was a coyote, he obviously wanted to come back to it. Human, not sure, but I think maybe it's likely - again, don't want to go too far here, we have absolutely no evidence of any human involvement here - put that backpack/knapsack there on that street either knowingly or unknowingly to harm people in the crowd or to add some fireworks to the parade.
@LazyHippo: Except that that's a "dog whistle" belief of one of the groups on the far-right. Most of the "crazy" things he is saying and wrote are things that various groups on the far right believe and propagate.
@thegrandinquisitor: Yeah, I'll try to breath, too. Ironically it was my New Year's resolution, though I characterized it as "not being deliberately disagreeable."
