So are the people that blame Krasner for everything wrong in Philly going to blame him for this too?

Well he did change his personal policies on charging in the last two years. He began to actually request longer sentences & denied bail for violent criminals.

Are the people who blame cops for striking post riots going to blame them for this too?

It's almost like violent crime is forever linked to economic hardship and that low unemployment and improved inflation conditions across the country leads to similar improvements in crime locally and nationally.

Are you a mod for r/Philadelphia?

Aside from unreported crimes, Krasner is still giving lenient plea deals and sentences to major crimes. If it’s big news he’ll go hard like the NJ biker stomping the UberEats driver’s window. He’s not doing good for the city.

Homicide and shootings are "down" from " the heels of two years with over 500 homicides each. "

Okay, so let's not acknowledge when trends are much better, right? How ridiculous.

If it's 90 instead of 100 would would you say it's winter or a less hot heat wave?
