Well I was talking about North Philly, SW, and W Philly. Of course it's different in the NE, Chestnut Hill, and Center City (etc).
elektra: What country are you in? If you don't want to disclose that, what part of the world?
EN: I was never alluding to whether being one race is better than another, just saying that white people get profiled too. As for the soup kitchen/social worker thing, that doesn't work. They ask for ID right off the bat, and they know all of the social services around. I mean, who's gonna believe that you're just there offering some Campbell's soup to the corner dealers?

'medicine cabinet': We do have very few cameras. One could have been used to solve a murder that happened in the vicinity. But, it was disconnected! The company that manages them said that they were "hacked" into so they shut them off. Of course they didn't tell the police. Just shows you who's actually watching them!
The next mayor(Nutter) wants cameras pretty much everywhere. They plan on making them all wifi so the cops could connect to any camera from their laptops and see what's going on.
But, like everyone knows, they'll just displace the dealing/crime.
