\"anarch\"Evidently this charming guy lives in my quaint hometown of around 7,000 people, about an hour north of Philadelphia. Yesterday after raucous May Day preening through the streets of the City of Brotherly Love, he and about 30 other Summer of Rage adherents <\/a>smashed windshields, threw paint and propelled marbles at high speed through the new windows of a three-block section Philly that is being renovated – gentrified – with damage estimated at $100,000.<\/p>\n

Happily, eyewitnesses flagged down cops and they caught this fella and a woman fleeing the scene, and arrested them. \u00a0Turns out, by police accounts, he is 45 and lives in a house here with a woman 30 years older than him, and she shares his last name. huh.<\/p>\n

There are plenty of Democrats and Republicans in suburbia, but until now I would not have assumed there were anarchists here. I remember years ago hearing\u00a0Glenn Beck, before he got weird,\u00a0broadcast from Philly about a book called ‘The Coming Insurrection,’ which outlined an anarchic movement then mainly in Europe’s underground, whose goals were, I think, nullification of law enforcement and, basically, revolt without end. It seems Philly is getting sucked into that spiral, even as the city continues to be paraded out, for the Pope, for the Dem convention, for the NFL draft. We have a race going on for DA in which an openly Soros-funded, BLM supporting lawyer is running. It’s like all the best and the worst things are getting heaped\u00a0into the city, a lid slammed on it, and shaken violently.<\/p>\n

Here I worry daily about my two kids who live and work in NYC, and this idiot lemming \u00a0– who, to complete my chagrin, is reportedly\u00a0an artist, augh!<\/em> – \u00a0crawls out from my sweet suburbia.<\/p>\n
