Philadelphia Officer Says The City Is No Longer Putting Up With The Crime Wave
“The mayor, the commissioner and the governor said we gonna do something about the theft. They passed new legislation that they're going after people”
“That's not gonna happen anymore. Not the city of Philadelphia. You're gonna get prosecuted, and it's gonna be a felony. It ain't gonna be on misdemeanor.”
Interviewer “Can you say something to the youth, please, about all this morning?”
Officer “Well, all I have to say to the youth is put down the gun because if you come here with a gun, the chances are you're not gonna make it home. I hate to say it like that, but we have to keep it real. This is killing us. I've never seen it like this before where young people shoot up a bus depot station, 40 rounds, and shoot innocent people. Something must be done.
I say this to the parents. Go in your children's room, tear it apart and find that gun. Because when they kill somebody, that's on you. You can't say, well, my child ain't you know what your children are doing. It is your job.
That's your house. You own it. You are the commander in that chief in that house. Go to your children's house your room and look for these weapons. Stop it before it's too late.
Either you're burying your child or you're going up to prison every month, visiting your child. It takes a community to stop this. It's not just on the police department.
That's why we are out there. But it's not all about locking people up. You have to educate these people. You have to educate these young people. Guns is not the way.
But there's a group of them that believe in robbing and stealing and killing. And those are the ones we have to capture and put away.“
