Amid the nationwide crime crisis that has arisen out of woke Democrat policies and the so-called “progressive prosecutor” movement, Philadelphia has been especially hard-hit — and its mayor is apparently tired of leading and looking forward to being out of office after overseeing the city’s record-setting crime spike.
On Independence Day, two law enforcement officers were hit with gunfire at Philly’s July Fourth festivities from an unknown suspect or suspects — authorities are still trying to identify those responsible and determine their motive. Thankfully, both officers were discharged after being treated for their wounds.
Video of the chaos that followed shows that happens in big cities where there’s little if any penalty for breaching laws:
In a press conference following the incident, Philadelphia Mayor Jim Kenney went on the same rant that all big-city Democrats do when the lawlessness their policies cause takes hold: attack America’s Second Amendment freedom and the country’s law-abiding gun owners.
America is “a gun country — it’s crazy,” Mayor Kenney said. “We’re the most-armed country in world history and we’re one of the least-safest,” he claimed before saying that until those pesky Americans who believe in the constitutionally protected right to keep and bear arms lay down their legally-owned firearms “we’re going to have this problem.”
Constitutionally protected and legally owned are the key words that keep us the freest country in the world also, for now
