Thanks for the heads up- I don't know what is wrong. Maybe because I
used Word and copied quotes?
Craig says: "A well armed non-felon community will lead to a quiet
civil society. More guns less crime."
Most of the developed countries in the world have less crime and a much
lower rate of caging their citizens. But most of them have fewer guns
on the streets too. Afghanistan and some towns with military bases in
this country have many guns and lots of crime (even excluding war crimes).
It seems like something such as literacy levels or properly funded
public education systems would provide a better predictor of crime and
safety. You aren't joking, are you?
Also, I don't tweet and I wouldn't be rude at the Gold Standard. After
all, Roger let's me inside even with my bad reputation. I'm going to be
using my Saturday night to pray for a great awakening!

Subj: Re: [UC] UCD in the news!
What is wrong with your email client?
It actually looks worse on my end than what is posted as part of
this reply.
I think your email client is mimicking your presenile dementia,
which is the only excuse I can come up with for your
ceaseless magpieing such disparate causes as our noble American
defense structure and your caring neighbor UCD.
"A well armed gated community has always been the intention in
Penn's domain and the gentrified urban zones across the homeland!"
Your allegation misses the mark. A well armed non-felon community
will lead to a quiet civil society. More guns less
crime. Gentrification is a different issue.
It is Saturday night, why aren't you Twittering from the Gold
Standard?
Ciao,
Craig

street have made an impact..."

Many of you probably noticed that UCD also bragged about this
PW quote in their marketing literature. They are proud of
their non-governmental police-state and the intimidation
directed at West Philly residents with their "eyes, ears,
guns, and night sticks." We knew about the extensive secret
surveillance of our neighborhood, since the BID tax was
revealed, even though UCD/Penn refused to publicly answer
questions about the surveillance details. (see BID dog and
pony shows in the public list archive)
<!--[if !supportEmptyParas]--> <!--[endif]-->
Here is a quote attributed to Lori Klown Brennan of UCD:
'"Seven years ago people were not willing to go west of 43^rd
Street," says Brennan.'
<!--[if !supportEmptyParas]--> <!--[endif]-->
<!--[if !supportEmptyParas]--> <!--[endif]-->
Well, I lived west of 43^rd St seven years ago- But I don't
want other PEOPLE living west of 43^rd St to simply assume
that LKB and the executive staff of UCD are just simple jack
asses!! Please don't be too distracted by the incredible
offensiveness of this dehumanizing statement.
<!--[if !supportEmptyParas]--> <!--[endif]-->
<!--[if !supportEmptyParas]--> <!--[endif]-->
Please consider this as part of the ongoing UCD attempt to
strip the PEOPLE of West Philly of our humanity. UCD
executives weren't simple jack asses when they repeatedly
published propaganda calling the PEOPLE of Clark Park
"prostitutes, gang members, and drug addicts" and they aren't
simple jack asses now!
<!--[if !supportEmptyParas]--> <!--[endif]-->
This dehumanization of indigenous peoples, who are about to be
oppressed and pushed off their lands with their communities
destroyed, is an ancient technique. The puritans worked hard
at propaganda to prove that,"Thou shall not kill" did not
apply to "savages" because savages were not really PEOPLE and
were controlled by the devil. Then, the good monotheists
killed native Americans with impunity for the next several
centuries.
<!--[if !supportEmptyParas]--> <!--[endif]-->
Nothing has changed about the purpose of dehumanizing
indigenous peoples over the centuries. It is a technique also
used consistently when totalitarian regimes grab power. (there
are German films from the 1930's about Jews that provide
excellent examples of the technique)
<!--[if !supportEmptyParas]--> <!--[endif]-->
UCD executives are not sophisticated but in this rare case
they are letting out the truth about how the Penn power
brokers look at the PEOPLE of West Philly, and our uncivilized
wasteland! They will insist that their cleaner and safer
propaganda created civilization and expensive lattes east of
the brew pub. They would never admit that control,
intimidation, and brutal class cleansing has always been their
real vision for the district!
<!--[if !supportEmptyParas]--> <!--[endif]-->
While LKB might seem like a completely simple jack ass, at
first glance, please understand her comment in terms of
colonization and understand that her statement is very
revealing, even if the truth came out in a very
unsophisticated manner.

"We have a memorandum of understanding between the
universities and police department," says Vanore. "Certain
investigations they handle, certain investigations we handle."
<!--[if !supportEmptyParas]--> <!--[endif]-->
Wow. Again, we seem to get the truth unintentionally from the
Lt. Of course, thinking people will be incredibly intimidated
by the guns and implications behind this secret memorandum!!
Yes, the amendments and rights under the US constitution have
been privatized in this district and across the secured
homeland. The night sticks and guns are the only thing we
SAVAGES need to know about. (see news of Oscar Grant) All
other private police matters are none of our damn business!

"...Some worry that the process of marketizing security will
exacerbate the gaps between the wealthiest segments of the
population and the less well to do," Wood says. Should
security be a commodity that you can buy?"
<!--[if !supportEmptyParas]--> <!--[endif]-->
<!--[if !supportEmptyParas]--> <!--[endif]-->
A well armed gated community has always been the intention in
Penn's domain and the gentrified urban zones across the
homeland! There is no doubt about this, even though no one
talks about what will be left outside the ring of guns!
Whether it's schools, healthcare, or security; those savages
outside of the private police districts will be completely
abandoned. Security is necessary for good PEOPLE. Animals
don't deserve schools, healthcare, or security, so the
government can go out of business in those areas. The only
appropriate role for government in the new corporate police
state is welfare for the wealthy! (Consider this marketing
piece your notice to vacate the Penn/Temple/Drexel homeland if
you're a West Philly savage.)
