Yesterday, around 5:00PM, I witnessed a car back up and pack on the corner of 7th and Linden. Not near the corner, but on the corner. The driver locked the car and strolled away. Across the street an Allentown Police officer was directing traffic out of the parking garage, and ignored the illegal parking. Meanwhile, a three wheel motorcycle blaring a stereo loud enough to be heard for blocks, was also ignored by the officer.
I now realize that my excursion, annoying as it was, could have been much worse. Thirty minutes later, there was a shooting at 8th & Linden. The decline seems fast and steep.
It does appear the Mayor, the Police Chief, other municipal officials, and local news media are unwilling, or afraid, to confront lawbreakers who operate within Allentown.
ReplyDeleteSo, like several other American cities headed by Democrat Socialists, an entirely new designation of residential living has been created. That is, a Sanctuary City for Criminal Behaviors.

Allentown - rolling downhill like a snowball headed for hell.
