Mark 1.15 15 And saying, The time is fulfilled, and the kingdom of God is at hand: repent ye, and believe the gospel. 2 Peter 3:9 The Lord is not slack concerning his promise, as some men count slackness; but is longsuffering to us-ward, not willing that any should perish, but that all should come to repentance. Hebrews 11:6 6 But without faith it is impossible to please him: for he that cometh to God must believe that he is, and that he is a rewarder of them that diligently seek him. Jesus
@Angelo Aitken I think what happened was an officer shot and it hit off the ground and hit an officer. At least that’s the testimony that some of the good cops that were there that dreadful day said. I forgot the guys name but there was a very nice cop that is still very troubled by what happened that day. There’s a documentary on RUclips if I can dig it up I’ll put the link here. As bad as the cops looked that day we must remember there are still some good ones out there that completely disagreed with everything that happened that day. The police chief and DA were reckless that caused this event.
The teachers were supposed to teach this, when I was in high school. But, they thought against it because it was the end of the school term. I looked in the back of the textbook just for funnies. Then I saw it. 'The Police Bombing of Philadelphia Street' I could never forget it. I thought why didn't we learned about that. How fucked up that was. It only solidified my beliefs on how broken the education system was, how messed up the police was & how fucked up racism was. I was really really pissed that day. I still am. With how the world is.
Or it just shows that in Germany its not exacly the most important thing to teach when the police dropped a bomb in America. Dont get me wrong but if you taught all the things like that in every school in the world then you would have to be in school 24h a day for your entire life.
You are exactly correct. They should never have dropped a bomb on them and then just watch it burn. But that doesn't mean that MOVE doesn't carry part of the blame.
@@ameer.thelion MOVE was bothering the neighbors. The government wasn't genocidal by getting a terrorist group with illegal firearms out of a city. They had a bunker on the roof. Couldn't gas them out and they fired on officers. Don't believe they lady in this video. They found all kinds of firearms inside the MOVE house. Do you want a hippie/Black Panthers style group living next door?
@@dannydaw59 There's nothing wrong with hippies, and the black panthers wouldn't exist if the American government wasn't the kind of government that would drop a bomb on a family of citizens. Then let the fire burn down like 60 other buildings. The American government is a mental mob of racist terrorists.

@Mina Park Europeans ask why we praise politicians when they’re public servants. Their purpose is literally serve the people and yet this is what they do...
I was in the Navy then. The ship I was on was in the ship yards. This was so disgusting.. the cops dropped a satchel charge on the roof.. 62 houses burned to the ground all for what? Still no answers..
Yea, I try to stay out of race debates on things but this is beyond disgusting and the fact hardly anyone including me until just now heard of it. This should definitely be brought up more.

They for years had held up in a house on Powelton Ave. on Drexel's campus. Their area was sectioned off for YEARS! This was a neighborhood with children not a grassy knoll. Then they moved farther in to west Philadelphia. What should a city do? This was at least 9 years after they had started all of this.
My dad told me about this. He said it was one of the wildest things he had ever seen. The fact it took HIM telling me about it and not ANY resource from the city is extremely upsetting
SW Philly's own Mayor Wilson Goode personally gave the order to drop it, so he deserved all the heat for that stupid stunt. "Bad Willie's Philly Air Force Strike" as it was called later on the street. WTF was he thinkin, approvin an incendiary strike on compacted row houses with kids inside? Yep, another Dem mayor, yet they kept electin even more after this tragedy. And Bad Willie walked free with a fixed pass. Folks on that whole block and local W. Philly neighborhood agreed the MOVE occupants in that Osage Ave house were straight up feral dangerous, somethin needin to be done, but the Mayor was wrong for his call for a bombing solution to solve the gunfight and standoff.
If this happened in any other country, we would be reminded by every U.S. administration why our country is the best because we don't have anything like this in our history

The fact I'm 19 living in Philly and I learned about this on RUclips instead of my school is shameful, it a reminder everyday the system has still yet to be changed.
Bro they’ll never teach kids in Philly about this because it’s an embarrassing story for the government and you know how they deal with embarrassing situations……they pretend they never happened
Education system is plagued with bureaucracy. With the immense amount of information we have easy access to nowadays and new media that can be both educational and entertaining, school is really just daycare centers for working parents and is a "society lite" for kids to get used to. At this point, why not just dedicate school to teaching kids applicable skills for life and career? Instead of teaching things dictated by state tests?
Being born and raised in Philly in 1990, I am shocked to hear about this for the very first time. I am embarrassed to know this happened in my city and had no knowledge of it until today. Im enraged and heartbroken. 💔
its national exceptionalism, people choose to remember only the nostalgic while repressing the awkward and guilt. native genocide, buffalo genocide to genocide natives, african slave trade, civil war over slavery, the failure of reconstruction, the period of the nadir including jim crow. America has repressed history, and the white majority has no incentive to acknowledge it nor change a status quo that doesnt affect them personally.
@@Lover20k Lmao typical white person response. The reason gangs were even created was because of the system that was made to protect y’all didn’t protect us, cops were and still are in most cases it’s own gang and our enemy.

They act like they’re joking, but they’re not really joking.

@@verstappen9937 That's what a black person calmly explaining something in plain terms sounds like to you...confirmation-bias much? 11 Killed; 5 were children. The 61 homes that were destroyed left 250 homeless. Great job with your embarrassing, uninformed opinion.
After John Africa's death, his widow, Alberta, married John Gilbride, Jr. Together they had a child, Zackary Africa, circa 1996. The couple divorced in 1999. Gilbride no longer supported MOVE and resettled in Maple Shade, New Jersey. Alberta Africa was living in Cherry Hill, New Jersey with their son John Zachary Gilbride, as he was legally known.[44] On September 10, 2002, in the course of their bitter custody dispute, Gilbride testified in court that MOVE had threatened to kill him.[45] The court granted Gilbride partial custody of Zackary, allowing him unsupervised visits. On September 27, 2002, shortly after midnight and prior to Gilbride's first visitation date with Zackary, an unknown assailant shot and killed Gilbride with an automatic weapon as he sat in his car parked outside his New Jersey home.[44] Investigators did not name a suspect and the Burlington County Police did not release ballistics information.[

@earthling8585 I am skeptical of just how much of a Nuisance they really were. At least some if not a large amount of the supposed outrage had to have been Karen neighbors and the average persons knee-jerk reaction to anything to do with revolutionary groups and movements. The city of Philadelphia went ahead and firebombed its own citizens you think they didn't also try to portray the people they just killed as an out of control cult that was doing all manner of heinous stuff in the aftermath to make themselves look better and more justified then you are being naive in the extreme.

I think the internet is amazing when it comes to the spread of information. (other than the current censorship taking place on Facebook and Twitter) There used to be only like 3 channels people could watch for news at night. Now anyone with a cell phone can post video and share it with the world.

@@u-know-this To the same point, it can also be used for 2nd amendment people. The 2nd Amendment is the only thing the people have to fight back against this kind of stuff. The government has proven over and over again that they will kill you if they want to. So having the ability to have something more than your bare hands is a good argument in support of the 2nd amendment.
It’s insane that I have never even heard of this until now. Makes me wonder whether I live under a rock or the world purposefully silences those who have suffered at the hands of corruption. It’s clearly the latter

My ancestors were “accidentally” bombed by the Air Force while sitting on their porch in 1944. The Cosson Massacre. It happened more than you would think...
As an adult, I'm finally realizing that our government is just as corrupt as the cartels in Mexico. Same kind of system. Cartels tax the people, our government taxes us. The only real difference is that the narco cartels don't lie about their business, and our US government does. Why did our history classes never teach us about all these bombings?
US serviceman and allies need to use orange flags on their vehicles so they dont get bombed by US airforce. USA is really good at friendly fire, always has been.
This video dropped at the perfect time. My school is asking for a presentations on forgotten evens in American history. This should have a spotlight, this should genuinely have a room in American textbooks
I was 6, I think, when this happened. My aunt was a cop in this district. She took an early retirement as a result of this. They were children in there.
Imagine being one of the people who complained about this group next door, only to have your home blown away or burned down by the people you complained to for help. Do you think those people will ever trust the police or any other civil authority again after that?
@j d i'm demanding it. anyone with a soul could easily see this was unjustified... anyone who doesn't hate due to someone's skin tone... prob not someone like you, i'd assume by your comment.
This incident is clearly a crime against humanity and the person's responsible for the decisions that led to this unconscionable crime needs to be held accountable.
@@chaman102 Yes you're right, legal due process goes like this: Somebody is accused of a crime and then uhhh you drop a bomb on them and shoot at them when they attempt escaping burning to death with their children and let 60 homes in the surrounding area burn. Really glad they followed the proper rule of law to get justice for that police officer.
Cops that do bad things should be put in there own jail. I was a kid when this was going on. Putting the fire department on hold says they didn't care about the people that pay the police to keep them safe. That's criminal.
Yeah, I don't believe her version of this history either. I mean, how dumb are we? This Democrat ran city was willing to carpet bomb two blocks of homes to kill a human pest problem. Think of the planning it took to execute this. They probably spent weeks calculating how much damage would ensue and realized it was worth the risk/destruction. That's how much of a pest this group of people were to others on the block. Pretty nutty that Democrat leadership was willing to go through all of that just to remove like 11 people from a block. Freaking Democrats and stupid ideas. It's like a peanut butter and jelly sandwich. Here's a fun fact from 1985. Wilson Goode was the mayor of Philadelphia at the time. He was the first African American mayor of Philadelphia. He was a Democrat. So just remember that for historical purposes, because the left will try to spin this story in the future as a "racist event" by white supremacist's or some other nonsense.
MOVE was asked repeatedly to lay their weapons down and started firing on the police. Racist if you do and racist if you don’t. Give her a statue in place of Frank Rizzo and Columbus. While you’re at it, give Mumia a statue also.
That still does not justify the murder of 6 adults and 5 children, and the destruction of 61 homes. The primary issue with this incident is the excessive use of force by police, and letting 2 blocks burn down
Its funny... during all this tension how news stories from 35 years ago just pop up... to piss people off all over again, while a phony election is being played out on the world stage... while people are out of work and pissed off already.

@@dannydaw59 no they were not. They left trash in their compound and occasionally played loud messages on their bullhorn. What crime did they commit to justify them being bombed?
I'm from Philadelphia. Born and raised. I just turned 7 when MOVE happened. I remember the whole thing like it was yesterday. It was absolutely awful to witness. I remember going to see the aftermath and the destruction was mind blowing. That part of West Philly was never the same. Those poor people who lost their homes weren't given anything near the amount that they lost.
This is crazy and even crazier that this is the first I’ve heard of this , like no day of remembrance for this horrible war crime, they bombed a house you can’t arrest someone after you blow them up. This was a public execution if anything
They tried to kill the whole family, 10,000 rounds fired, hundreds of police, they let the fire burn for 1h 1/2 before sending firefighters, dropped a bomb on their house, destroyed 2city blocks and cost taxpayers $33,000,000 or more to rebuild
I remember this I was 16 years old living in south Jersey, roughly 40 minutes from Philly. It was all over the news, I felt so bad for the move members, it was not justifiable dropping a bomb on a row home, that was crazy.
I had a friend share this with me 12 years ago, I couldn’t believe that this could happened. So I did my own research and discovered so many layers to this story. Still can’t believe this story isn’t talked about more.
@@cameronmohebbi8825 Well the first thing that stood out was Wilson Goode, the first black mayor of the city, who approved the 1985 attack , claimed he didn’t know the extent of the damage it would cause, lol, it was a bomb! He has since apologized several times, but right after the bombing he did say he’d do it again. The city council members who approved the bombing and ordered the chief of police to drop it with the mayor, I’m still not clear on the meetings that lead up to that decision.Then there was more than 10,000 rounds of ammunition fired from police submachine guns before the bomb was dropped. Ramona who was badly burned in the fire. For her escaping, she was arrested, charged with riot and conspiracy, and spent the next seven years behind bars - the only person ever to be convicted of crimes arising from the attack was totally wrongly convicted. I know this isn’t going to be political correct, but I believe why this is not talked about as much in the MSM is because most of the high level people that called for the bombing were black. I’m not sure that the two children killed were ever given to their families, the county had reported they lost them for a long time and then they found them, the family has been asking for them.
The fact that the Philly police dropped a bomb on the MOVE compound--and let it burn for 90 minutes--is sickening. That confrontation could've been better handled. No justification for murder.
this specific instance needs to me taught in american schools. it’s recent, it’s brutal, and it’s physically sickening. prayers for the families who were victimized
I never knew about this. I was a kid in NJ going through a divorce so yeah, not paying attention to the news. Then I moved to Philadelphia after college, lived there for 5 years and still didn’t hear about this. Thanks for posting!
The Philadelphia government did not arrest the Fire Commissioner who turned his hoses off (yes, they were on before the bombing!) -- THAT was arson. The Philadelphia government has tried to kill MOVE members many times, and succeeded, just not so blatantly. The point was never to arrest, [unarmed] women and children, MOVE people were walking in and out of the house all the time. The Philly govt wanted to literally kill MOVE.
The police obtained arrest warrants in 1985 charging four MOVE occupants with crimes including parole violations, contempt of court, illegal possession of firearms, and making terrorist threats.[4] Mayor Wilson Goode and police commissioner Gregore J. Sambor classified MOVE as a terrorist organization.[32]
And this was the 2nd time the city of philadelphia went after the move members. And people need to stop allowing Media to control their mind. This is why Trump call it fake news, but robots doesn't see pass what the media say
Actually nowadays people are learning about it. But what's really crazy is that people know about the bombing of Black Wall Street in 1920s but don't know the bombing of a residential black neighborhood by the police in 1980s
this is such a horrible story that needs to be known, I know those in the area have likely heard about repeatedly but farther afield not so much... and yes I do realise there’s two sides to every story. I’m having to do some research on my own which is not a problem just slow going
Another one was out in California or near and they used an explosive and caused a fire and the man died inside. He was an African American who used to be in the military. Maybe someone knows his name.
Nobody is hiding anything, it didn’t happen last week for Christ sake. It happened like 35 years ago, do you expect the government to still be giving updates and press conferences twice a day? They were terrorists that everyone including the people whose houses got destroyed hated. If the houses of their neighbors didn’t burn nobody would’ve thought twice about the cops decision.
The best part of this is the footage of them dropping the bomb. You can't say Move did it when there is physical proof. My heart is just broken from this
Agreed. It really seems like the police were really wanting to use a bomb given it is not common practice for them to do so. The use of a bomb is so ridiculous. SMH. What gets me is she was charged with arson when the whole thing was on live tv.
@@Qqxx22 the reason they used it because they were hunkered down with powerful rifles . They shot at the house over 10k Bullets and no one died . The lady is crazy not anyone gets killed by police , she and her “family” were trying to overthrow the government by force . Had they simply stop trying to overthrow America , and accept being a part of America , nothing would have happened. In no other country would terrorists get treated differently. The Taliban sounds like a great group to if you ask why they fight .
@@ci6516 I get your point. But I think as law enforcement professionals they should be better than dropping bombs. Remember, they are the professionals who are tasked protect life and then property. Knowing kids were in there and how bombs work (with their non discriminatory nature) the cops should have done better. I acknowledge cops have a hard job but with the gun and the badge comes the higher standard they are held to. If they cannot hold themselves up to that standards I suggest finding another line of work.
I was in the Marine Corps and stationed in NC when this happened. A friend of mine said “Man what’s going on in your city”? That’s when I called home and got the news. From my time growing up I had seen MOVE throughout the city. In fact some of them had moved into an abandoned house on our block. But they didn’t bother anyone. There’s an interesting book and documentary about this called “Let It Burn” for anyone interested.
The same MOVE terrorizing their neighborhoods, espousing political propaganda over bullhorns at night, housing members wanted for parole violations, contempt of court, illegal possession of firearms, and making terroristic threats and then shooting at the police when these warrants were being served? Even if the warrants were false, which I guarantee to you they weren't, the place to settle that is a courtroom, not a gunfight with the police, especially not when you have children in your house.

What is even more disgusting is that they took the bones of the deceased children and have been using them in lectures and demonstrations in colleges. America is irredeamable.
"America is irredeemable" that's a stupid thing for an American to say, why do you say that, because you're too lazy to be the change you want to see in this country? You'd rather just throw it out? And then what? Grow up.
It was on the news a couple of years ago. One of the Move women was pregnant and had her baby in jail. The baby grew up and received the bones of his siblings. The local University was still using the children's bodies in their classes. He was holding the bag of bones and apologizing to it. He promised to give them a correct burial. It was heartbreaking.
i’m from around here and have never heard about this. it’s insanely sad that we didn’t learn about this in school. my heart goes out to all the families who had to go through this, none of you guys deserved it.
Schools will never teach you about this. Their history is made up and isn’t the truth. Most of the things the government has done was to shut us down and keep us like wild animals fighting one another and the fear of the unity we all can achieve. The 60’s-80’s was different times and unity was at its high during that era. Whites brown black red yellow you name it world wide all came together
It's a story that really does not get much attention anymore, hasn't for decades. Except on May 13th each year on the local Philly news making the anniversary briefly. I recall this 1985 day vividly, The earl morning shootout, the water cannons, then the helicopter / bomb at 5:30pm. I knew about the group just by the name and what happened in 1978. THAT I slightly recall, the first confrontation in the Mantua section...always remember this grainy news clip of guns shooting and this dog running across the scene.
Im from Florida minutes away from where the Ocoee massacre took place and had no clue because they never taught us about it in school. The rosewood massacre was a few hours away and i only learned about that recently
I was a kid when this happened. I lived blocks away, unaffected by the fires, but close enough, to fear them coming. Scared the sheeit of out of my family. The "breaking news" at the time made it seem like move started the fires. Mayor Rizzo was a racist and a jackass. My stepfather told stories of how Rizzo when he was a cop terrorize black teens in his past.
I was a child when this happened, 7 going on 8. I was with my Aunt who lived on Parkside Ave across the street from Fairmont Park at the time. I remember the vibration, seeing the smoke and hearing the adults talking about it. Now, as a grown woman, I realize how insane it was for the police to dropped a bomb on homes with children inside. If you’re from Philly you know Rizzo was a racist. When I was of college age, Mayor Street was teaching at Eastern University ( College at that time ) Rizzo and Street should have gone to prison for murder.
Wilson Goode was mayor at this time, not Rizzo. Gregore J. Sambor was the police commissioner. The latter was the one who was blamed for the whole fiasco.
@Aluzky you just believe anything there media tells you huh. The one surviving member just told you what happened and your racism wouldn't you listen or accept it huh

The city really tried covering this up, unreal. Disgusting display of “justice” and what better way to train law enforcement than making the public pay for their mistakes.
wow really! they were using the MOVE name in order to commit crimes and do illegal activity's. Like having all the items to make bombs that were going to be placed in hotels and embassies to kill incent people in the name of all the injustice. Do you do any research
When I read the title, I assumed mismanaged old military equipment for sure or some freak accident... No! They literally dropped a bomb on a family!! ...Not even some isolated home but right in the middle of a neighborhood!!
Yeah and now they get their satisfaction blowing up mosques and civilians halfway around the world with drones while the operators sit on home soil pressing buttons on a keyboard and looking at monitors like its a video game. Its terrible the way some humans treat others.

The police obtained arrest warrants in 1985 charging four MOVE occupants with crimes including parole violations, contempt of court, illegal possession of firearms, and making terrorist threats.[7] Mayor Wilson Goode and police commissioner Gregore J. Sambor classified MOVE as a terrorist organization.[1] Police evacuated residents of the area from the neighborhood prior to their action. Residents were told that they would be able to return to their homes after a twenty-four hour period.[8] On Monday, May 13, 1985, nearly five hundred police officers, along with city manager Leo Brooks, arrived in force and attempted to clear the building and execute the arrest warrants.[8][1] Water and electricity were shut off in order to force MOVE members out of the house. Commissioner Sambor read a long speech addressed to MOVE members that started with, "Attention MOVE: This is America. You have to abide by the laws of the United States." When the MOVE members did not respond, the police decided to forcibly remove the 13 members from the house,[8] which consisted of eight adults and five children. There was an armed standoff with police,[9] who lobbed tear gas canisters at the building. The MOVE members fired at them, and a gunfight with semi-automatic and automatic firearms ensued.[10] Police used more than ten thousand rounds of ammunition before Commissioner Sambor ordered that the compound be bombed.[10] From a Pennsylvania State Police helicopter, Philadelphia Police Department Lt. Frank Powell proceeded to drop two one-pound (0.5 kg) bombs (which the police referred to as "entry devices"[1]) made of FBI-supplied Tovex, a dynamite substitute, targeting a fortified, bunker-like cubicle on the roof of the house.[5] en.wikipedia.org/wiki/1985_MOVE_bombing

The more i learn about the government in the 1980’s and 90’s the more disappointed i become with the country i live in. I understand that some people have different beliefs but we live in a free country and shouldn’t be killed for believing something thats out of the ordinary. An unarmed woman holding a baby shouldn’t be killed, over a dozen kids shouldn’t be burned alive for the beliefs of their parents, and bombs should not be dropped on American civilians. Also our education system has failed us, i grew up 3 hours from Philadelphia and never heard about this until a youtube video showed it to me.
Finally someone speaking the truth. It was their own “neighbors” who wanted these dirty squatters out. My good friend, his dad dropped the actual bomb 💣. These are such lies.
It should be noted, this wasn't a one-way story; the MOVE house had been a public nuisance for an extended period of time. The city issues arrest warrants, and in their attempt to execute them (however bewilderingly idiotic it was to attempt) lead to a massive firefight. The warrants may or may not have been justified, but the MOVE group wrongfully fired upon (and continued to fire upon) police officers. The city's handling of the MOVE group started completely and utterly wrong; but they did not deserve to be fired upon. The bombings, however, were truly batshit insane. No one has legally condoned these behaviors. The travesty is a lack of liability for illegal use of explosives, illegal damage of property, and manslaughter caused by this.
Ya this story is full of plot holes. Like of course the fire fighters didn't move in to put out the fires, they would never move into an area where a gunfight occurred without confirming that it's completely safe. Ambulances didn't go into Portland for the same reason, they need to be sure that the firemen and medics aren't going to get shot. Additionally, the police commissioner didn't just say "Attention, MOVE ... This is America", he said "This is America, you have to abide by the laws of the United States" Which I'd say is a perfectly reasonable thing to say to a group of radicals who believed that the US Government shouldn't exist. It's also stated in an article by NPR (www.npr.org/sections/codeswitch/2015/05/13/406243272/im-from-philly-30-years-later-im-still-trying-to-make-sense-of-the-move-bombing) that when MOVE was given 15 minutes to leave their compound, MOVE shot at police instead. The fact that the majority of people who watched this didn't even think to fact check it is amazing.

*is in group that rebels against the government sometimes violently* *police officers attempt to serve warrant and receives shots from MOVE members* “Why were we bombed”
I’m 29 years old from west Philly. The only reason why I heard about this at a young age is because my grandmother told me about it. It was hard for me to understand. But never saw information about it in school or just outside in Philly. These last recent years with all the docs and interviews I’m glad I have knowledge of who the MOVE people are.
One more thing the baby boomers have to feel ashamed about. Not only about the brutality used, but the apathy of the city, the country, and unjust conviction of the victim. Because it got media attention even back then, and America's response was, "Well, they probably deserved it. Every bullet fired and every bomb dropped was justified."
Conservatives what to cover up stuff like this to protect their profits. So they came up with the term Critical Race Theory (CRT). That's why it won't be touched in schools. But the internet is MUCH bigger brother.
@@MrPhotodoc Of course you turn this into a political thing. This could have just been about the government vs the people, but instead you make it Republicans vs black people. You know what also isn't taught in schools? The Waco massacre, where there was also an extremist group held up in a building which was burned down by the government, except 80 people died in that instead of 11 and they were white. It's important for kids to learn about the Slavery, emancipation, Jim Crow, and prejudices that still exist today. What's not important for kids to learn about is tragic events like both of these. They can learn about about the government committing atrocities in the 80s on their own time.

I said that terrible stuff happens all the time in the US to black AND white people. Yet, we don’t teach it in schools because if we taught every tragic event that ever happened in history we’d be in school until we died. Therefore, if history class taught about everything race related it wouldn’t be “history” anymore, it would be racism class.

they can and will so keep your activity's above board and you don't have anything to worry about. their activity's were illegal. manufacturing bombs to place in hotels and embassies are a no no in the US.
@@u-know-this To the same point, it can also be used for 2nd amendment people. The 2nd Amendment is the only thing the people have to fight back against this kind of stuff. The government has proven over and over again that they will kill you if they want to. So having the ability to have something more than your bare hands is a good argument in support of the 2nd amendment.

Cruel is one word that comes to mind.
Yeah, I don't believe her version of this history either. I mean, how dumb are we? This Democrat ran city was willing to carpet bomb two blocks of homes to kill a human pest problem. Think of the planning it took to execute this. They probably spent weeks calculating how much damage would ensue and realized it was worth the risk/destruction. That's how much of a pest this group of people were to others on the block. Pretty nutty that Democrat leadership was willing to go through all of that just to remove like 11 people from a block. Freaking Democrats and stupid ideas. It's like a peanut butter and jelly sandwich. Here's a fun fact from 1985. Wilson Goode was the mayor of Philadelphia at the time. He was the first African American mayor of Philadelphia. He was a Democrat. So just remember that for historical purposes, because the left will try to spin this story in the future as a "racist event" by white supremacist's or some other nonsense.

@@cameronmohebbi8825 Well the first thing that stood out was Wilson Goode, the first black mayor of the city, who approved the 1985 attack , claimed he didn’t know the extent of the damage it would cause, lol, it was a bomb! He has since apologized several times, but right after the bombing he did say he’d do it again. The city council members who approved the bombing and ordered the chief of police to drop it with the mayor, I’m still not clear on the meetings that lead up to that decision.Then there was more than 10,000 rounds of ammunition fired from police submachine guns before the bomb was dropped. Ramona who was badly burned in the fire. For her escaping, she was arrested, charged with riot and conspiracy, and spent the next seven years behind bars - the only person ever to be convicted of crimes arising from the attack was totally wrongly convicted. I know this isn’t going to be political correct, but I believe why this is not talked about as much in the MSM is because most of the high level people that called for the bombing were black. I’m not sure that the two children killed were ever given to their families, the county had reported they lost them for a long time and then they found them, the family has been asking for them.
The fact that the Philly police dropped a bomb on the MOVE compound--and let it burn for 90 minutes--is sickening. That confrontation could've been better handled. No justification for murder.
this specific instance needs to me taught in american schools. it’s recent, it’s brutal, and it’s physically sickening. prayers for the families who were victimized

I think that's a common thing, charging the "criminal" for damages done by the police during an arrest.
The Philadelphia government did not arrest the Fire Commissioner who turned his hoses off (yes, they were on before the bombing!) -- THAT was arson. The Philadelphia government has tried to kill MOVE members many times, and succeeded, just not so blatantly. The point was never to arrest, [unarmed] women and children, MOVE people were walking in and out of the house all the time. The Philly govt wanted to literally kill MOVE.

The same MOVE terrorizing their neighborhoods, espousing political propaganda over bullhorns at night, housing members wanted for parole violations, contempt of court, illegal possession of firearms, and making terroristic threats and then shooting at the police when these warrants were being served? Even if the warrants were false, which I guarantee to you they weren't, the place to settle that is a courtroom, not a gunfight with the police, especially not when you have children in your house.

It's a story that really does not get much attention anymore, hasn't for decades. Except on May 13th each year on the local Philly news making the anniversary briefly. I recall this 1985 day vividly, The earl morning shootout, the water cannons, then the helicopter / bomb at 5:30pm. I knew about the group just by the name and what happened in 1978.

I was a kid when this happened. I lived blocks away, unaffected by the fires, but close enough, to fear them coming. Scared the sheeit of out of my family. The "breaking news" at the time made it seem like move started the fires. Mayor Rizzo was a racist and a jackass. My stepfather told stories of how Rizzo when he was a cop terrorize black teens in his past.
I was a child when this happened, 7 going on 8. I was with my Aunt who lived on Parkside Ave across the street from Fairmont Park at the time. I remember the vibration, seeing the smoke and hearing the adults talking about it. Now, as a grown woman, I realize how insane it was for the police to dropped a bomb on homes with children inside. If you’re from Philly you know Rizzo was a racist. When I was of college age, Mayor Street was teaching at Eastern University ( College at that time ) Rizzo and Street should have gone to prison for murder.
Wilson Goode was mayor at this time, not Rizzo. Gregore J. Sambor was the police commissioner. The latter was the one who was blamed for the whole fiasco.
Whoever the guy was who dropped the bomb and told the firefighters not to put the fire out should be classified as terrorists
Ooops! Time to go back to college and learn that it was W. Wilson Goode.

@@leefithian3704 Exactly, most of these leftist havent actually studied an ounce of history, they think socialism will be on their side when in reality it takes power away from the private sector and centralizes it to a small powerful few pulling the strings of goverment, which has NEVER successfully lasted. Most of the kids now are so spoiled into living in a wealthy country and want to change what made it wealthy and think nothing bad can come out of it. There will never be another constitution/government like the US constitution again if its removed.
Im honestly in shock that happened in the USA as recently as the 80’s.
Somebody needs to make a full on doc or series about it. So sad. 😢

@@BogeyBoys28 I get what you’re saying but you can’t just bomb and burn someone’s home that isn’t posing any threat to society. You gotta at least agree on that.

They were radical extremists and killed a cop. That’s a big problem
And then they named a street after the mayor who authorized it.
Exactly
The police obtained arrest warrants in 1985 charging four MOVE occupants with crimes including parole violations, contempt of court, illegal possession of firearms, and making terrorist threats.[7] Mayor Wilson Goode and police commissioner Gregore J. Sambor classified MOVE as a terrorist organization.[1] Police evacuated residents of the area from the neighborhood prior to their action. Residents were told that they would be able to return to their homes after a twenty-four hour period.[8]
On Monday, May 13, 1985, nearly five hundred police officers, along with city manager Leo Brooks, arrived in force and attempted to clear the building and execute the arrest warrants.[8][1] Water and electricity were shut off in order to force MOVE members out of the house. Commissioner Sambor read a long speech addressed to MOVE members that started with, "Attention MOVE: This is America. You have to abide by the laws of the United States." When the MOVE members did not respond, the police decided to forcibly remove the 13 members from the house,[8] which consisted of eight adults and five children.
There was an armed standoff with police,[9] who lobbed tear gas canisters at the building. The MOVE members fired at them, and a gunfight with semi-automatic and automatic firearms ensued.[10] Police used more than ten thousand rounds of ammunition before Commissioner Sambor ordered that the compound be bombed.[10] From a Pennsylvania State Police helicopter, Philadelphia Police Department Lt. Frank Powell proceeded to drop two one-pound (0.5 kg) bombs (which the police referred to as "entry devices"[1]) made of FBI-supplied Tovex, a dynamite substitute, targeting a fortified, bunker-like cubicle on the roof of the house.[5]

Maybe don't do criminal stuff and you will survive... this woman is a POS without any accountability for her actions...
@ The kids had nothing to do with what she did and while she did things wrong there's no excuse for what the police did. So yeah you are right but pointing it out in the way you do is kind of bad taste.
Also, as for criminality in America, I wouldn't blame the criminals themselves but rather the things that are fundamentally wrong with America, it's school shootings, the car-centric society and whole political system that bulges under the corruption of lobbyists being one of the few things that come to mind for what is a endless list of flaws that no pride can ever try to mask.
EDIT: I've done some background search into the movement. They weren't a peace loving organization. They were however good at manipulating public opinion.

The more i learn about the government in the 1980’s and 90’s the more disappointed i become with the country i live in. I understand that some people have different beliefs but we live in a free country and shouldn’t be killed for believing something thats out of the ordinary. An unarmed woman holding a baby shouldn’t be killed, over a dozen kids shouldn’t be burned alive for the beliefs of their parents, and bombs should not be dropped on American civilians. Also our education system has failed us, i grew up 3 hours from Philadelphia and never heard about this until a youtube video showed it to me.
Maybe return to the motherland then
How brave is she for talking about this. 99% of people would have extreme ptsd after something like this. Props to her for being strong about this

Dropped a literal bomb on them and then charged her with arson?! Wtf
“We were getting along with our neighbors”, ma’am you had a loudspeaker pointed out to the street😅
Finally someone speaking the truth. It was their own “neighbors” who wanted these dirty squatters out. My good friend, his dad dropped the actual bomb 💣. These are such lies.
It should be noted, this wasn't a one-way story; the MOVE house had been a public nuisance for an extended period of time. The city issues arrest warrants, and in their attempt to execute them (however bewilderingly idiotic it was to attempt) lead to a massive firefight. The warrants may or may not have been justified, but the MOVE group wrongfully fired upon (and continued to fire upon) police officers. The city's handling of the MOVE group started completely and utterly wrong; but they did not deserve to be fired upon.
The bombings, however, were truly batshit insane. No one has legally condoned these behaviors. The travesty is a lack of liability for illegal use of explosives, illegal damage of property, and manslaughter caused by this.
Sheeit bout time more cops start dropping. Smoked bacon in the morning is always a good smell.
@@teronnierichardson4374 Sure. Like I said, it's ridiculous and the entire situation was avoidable if it was executed more thoughtfully.
Ya this story is full of plot holes. Like of course the fire fighters didn't move in to put out the fires, they would never move into an area where a gunfight occurred without confirming that it's completely safe. Ambulances didn't go into Portland for the same reason, they need to be sure that the firemen and medics aren't going to get shot. Additionally, the police commissioner didn't just say "Attention, MOVE ... This is America", he said "This is America, you have to abide by the laws of the United States" Which I'd say is a perfectly reasonable thing to say to a group of radicals who believed that the US Government shouldn't exist. It's also stated in an article by NPR (www.npr.org/sections/codeswitch/2015/05/13/406243272/im-from-philly-30-years-later-im-still-trying-to-make-sense-of-the-move-bombing) that when MOVE was given 15 minutes to leave their compound, MOVE shot at police instead. The fact that the majority of people who watched this didn't even think to fact check it is amazing.
@@pruina3395 Yup. The ending is what made this debauchery into anything worth looking at. The police fucked up pretty hard in that sense.

“Why were we bombed”
I’m 29 years old from west Philly. The only reason why I heard about this at a young age is because my grandmother told me about it. It was hard for me to understand. But never saw information about it in school or just outside in Philly. These last recent years with all the docs and interviews I’m glad I have knowledge of who the MOVE people are.
One more thing the baby boomers have to feel ashamed about. Not only about the brutality used, but the apathy of the city, the country, and unjust conviction of the victim. Because it got media attention even back then, and America's response was, "Well, they probably deserved it. Every bullet fired and every bomb dropped was justified."
This story needs to be made into a movie asap. I watched this live on tv as a teenager
I was in 8th grade when his happened.
Conservatives what to cover up stuff like this to protect their profits. So they came up with the term Critical Race Theory (CRT). That's why it won't be touched in schools. But the internet is MUCH bigger brother.
@@MrPhotodoc Of course you turn this into a political thing. This could have just been about the government vs the people, but instead you make it Republicans vs black people.
You know what also isn't taught in schools? The Waco massacre, where there was also an extremist group held up in a building which was burned down by the government, except 80 people died in that instead of 11 and they were white. It's important for kids to learn about the Slavery, emancipation, Jim Crow, and prejudices that still exist today. What's not important for kids to learn about is tragic events like both of these. They can learn about about the government committing atrocities in the 80s on their own time.
@@EinfachFredhaftGaming I didn’t say it wasn’t racially motivated??? It may be hard for you to read English or understand American politics since you’re German, so I’ll cut you some slack. I said that terrible stuff happens all the time in the US to black AND white people. Yet, we don’t teach it in schools because if we taught every tragic event that ever happened in history we’d be in school until we died. Therefore, if history class taught about everything race related it wouldn’t be “history” anymore, it would be racism class.
@@EinfachFredhaftGaming I’m not seeing it I only know of 2 comments of mine above this one.
This was an embarrassment to the city that will never go away.
