Re: [UC] DP: Last Store Standing
Wilma, These propaganda pieces do seem like an Abbott and Costello sketch to the critically thinking eye. Why does McDonald's need to go? Answer: Because of Vladimir Sled and 47th and Pine. If the whole thing wasn't so frightening, it would seem like slapstick comedy. When Penn started calling the people of Clark Park criminals ten years ago, they told our community leaders that it was necessary to bring in the grants. I begged those idiots to see the truth about conspiring with liars and fraudsters, and tried to explain the actual reasons for the false portrayal that are abundant in world history. But they couldn't take their minds off the belief in Penn gold trickling down to them! (They also thought they would join that elite and were better than the rest of their neighbors.) There is a foreboding change in the new tone of this piece, that George Carlin spoke about in that excellent clip you posted! With an angry tone that is being used from Wisconsin to New Jersey, the official barks out that Penn OWNS this town. (Mission almost accomplished!) We didn't see that boldness over the past ten years, as local residents were characterized as criminals scaring the good folks away. Previously, Penn was investing in the community because they loved the few good people on civic association boards and wanted them to be happy. They no longer feel the need to play that song anymore and the state sponsored brutality is about to get much worse, as you are aware. The elites who own us don't want lower or middle class people in their upscale neighborhood. So they don't want the businesses that will serve them. Racism is one of the tools (divide and conquer) that can be exploited in the interest neo-colonialism. A clear message and chant emerging in the people's revolution is, we are one!

Modern dressed down Blue Boys and Van Dicks err Dykes all transitioning between the second and third generation of life are UPenn's biblical equivalent of the bread of life. Occasionally, the wheat and barley are a littler fermented and the hops burned . 2) The desired population displacement is nothing more than economic apartheid. If it aint gonna contribute to UPenn's green economy -its outa here. There is always one thing constant in the secular life, Show me the money; money talks and BS walks! $13 for a Flay burger? I can buy a very nice six pack with readily bio-available cals and ETOH. Is this how society degrades when the sciences are no longer part of higher education's core curriculum? And as to a Marley bangin' and John Lennon give piece a chance world -up in smoke. Didn't make MickeyD's peaceful, though. Chow, Craig
Re: [UC] DP: Last Store Standing
What strikes me about this article is that its author -- and, it would seem, none of the informants, either -- lacks any notion of the history of that particular intersection and/or block, especially in two regards: 1) For many years, the NW corner of 40th Market was the site of a Penn womens' dormitory.
