According to Black October the crimes were committed in order to stamp out the drug trade. Others felt the group was just an opportunistic criminal gang, hiding behind social issues and politics.

Roughest Streets in Chester Pennsylvania
Просмотров 2812 месяца назад
Once a major hub of industry, Chester PA has seen a major decline over the past 5 decades. More than half of the city's population has left, leaving behind an empty, somewhat surreal scene. There have been some glimmers of hope for the city in recent years but it is unlikely that the city will ever return to where it once was.

    So...explain to me why driving through Fort Armistead, located on the opposite side of the Patapsaco River, is a representation of Dundalk? Or why it is you chose to pick the worst areas, but failed to go to the areas where home prices sit in the upper 200k-400k. Merritt Blvd, Wise ave, etc. Don't believe the hype, no area is perfect, but BLATANTLY MISREPRESENTED areas will always look worse than they are.

    Back when my blonde wife was 18 and we were dating, she took a wrong turn leaving the inner harbour and drove through a rougher paet of town, she was at a stop and a group of guys surrounded her car and were staring her down and shaking her vehicle for about 90 seconds ( but she said it felt more like 15 minutes) until a delivery truck chased them away. It gave her mental trauma for several months, I noticed she started watching more black sitcom shows and movies. I later knowing it was mildly helping her cope, I introduced her to interracial prn and BBC fetishes, she was hesatant at first but was drawn in, the trauma drove a deep desire out forward. When she was 21 she cheated on me with man of color that she met at a ladies night, she felt shameful about the one night stand, but I knew it was going to happen and I told her its not going to be the first time and we went out to a swinger club soon after and started introducing her to BBC Bulls. We are still married today and happy as ever.

    My father was born in Chester in his family home which the entire block is now gone, turned into a lot. I used to play there in the summers of the 70s and very early 80s. We would stay at my uncles place (132 Hayes) and then go across 2nd to my aunts house. My father would tell stories how during the depression they would walk across the bridge to Jersey and get apples from the orchards and they would bathe in the hot water coming out of the steel mills in to the Delaware river. My favorite was getting up at 3am and my aunt and uncle would take me crabb'n on the Jersey shore all day. We'd come back around 9 or 10 pm and cook pots of blue crab and eat til 2 am with the whole family. Then we'd go visit my other uncle in West Chester for the 4th of July. Going to St. Hedwigs on Sunday and a big dinner that night. What I really miss were the hoagies. You can't get good hoagies where I live now. Damn shame what happened to what used to be one of the nicest places in Penn.
