As someone who lives in Philadelphia, and would like to continue living for a long while yet, I’d appreciate if outsiders stopped gleefully crowing about how violent we are. This is not a meme and you’re not gassing up a sports team.
Also, frankly, it’s racist.

I have been told that this undercover ICE agent tried to get observers to scan a QR code “for his website”. The QR code did not resolve to a link.
DO NOT SCAN UNKNOWN QR CODES FROM STRANGERS.
This is a massive security risk! Bad things can happen to you if you do it!

Every day some story breaks me some. Today it’s the guy who approached parents at a school patrol, told them he was with Indivisible, and asked about how the patrol system works. The parents gave vague answers, followed him back to his car — and of course it was ICE.
