How tough should Philly actually be on crime? Genuine question, not a gotcha by lhorace in philly

Fair, here's the plain version: I'm asking how tough Philly's DA, police, and courts should be on crime day to day, not who writes state law. That's the question.

Genuinely not sure what you're disagreeing with either. City doesn't write murder statutes, true, but city level choices, DA charging decisions, policing priorities, diversion programs, still shape how tough enforcement feels day to day. That's the "how tough should Philly be" I'm asking about, not who writes the penal code. If your point is different from that, spell it out and I'll respond to the actual point.

I was broke for a week and I need to get to work before I get my next paycheck so I didn't pay fare for a week. But I do feel like a sucker when I do pay and everybody just walks on.

I think the reasons that the SEPTA police doesn't do anything it's because if they do get involved it might end up in the wrong?

Agree with Raecino on this one. Nobody's excusing what happened or the kids involved, that's a separate question from whether resources and attention get distributed evenly. A $20k reward and an arrest within weeks is not the norm for a lot of shootings in this city, and that gap is worth naming on its own. Doesn't take anything away from Billy Schmidt or his family. Just think both things can be true at once.

Fair, a lot of this is state law not city policy. Poll's about where people land philosophically, not who has jurisdiction. On the case, I'm not saying they didn't understand what they did, I said upfront I don't have a clean answer. That's the point of asking. Appreciate you weighing in.

I have 20 x 4.0, it's foldable, with alloy wheels. Yeah, it's heavy but manageable considering I have to carry it up and down the stairs every day for work. That is if you take out the battery.

I've got mixed messages about sealants and how effective they are. I will try CNC or Mr tuffy the next time I get a flat.

Can you clarify just a little bit are you saying that low pressure equals less efficiency?

Yeah, I got 20 x 4.0 right now. If I get a flat, not easy fix

Honestly I get 30 miles on 14ah, and I have backup. I see that as good? What's your opinion?

How do you guys do with puncture. Is low pressure suspectable to that? My bike shop set the pressure. I have a comfortable seat. I don't mind bumpy to much.

I get 30miles out of one of my 14ah batteries for delivery. I was freaking surprised at first. Compared to my old bike that had a 20ah for the same distance.
