I just think that all the far left do gooders would have someone better to get behind and support than these assholes.
My aunt lived in UD just across the creek back then and could hear the fuckin megaphone blaring from her porch all day, all night.
they had a fortified bunker, and would run across the rooftops of the adjoined homes. they ate stray dogs and shit in buckets in the basement.
It was a black mayor and black police chief that gave the orders to drop the concussion bomb. Like Gavin said, i know that hood and it wasnt like the people there had the means to get up and move. their shit goes back as far as the 70s when they had another house in Powelton Village. Fuck em. I'm all for siding with the underdogs and fighting the system this that and the next thing, but its just hard to comprehend anyone taking these shtheads side an defending anything they did. but who am i right? just a jerk with a fridge ful of beer and a mind full of anger...

For me it's not about defending MOVE so much as saying "the city fucked up big time there and handled the situation all wrong." I mean, they thought it was a good idea to drop a fucking bomb of C4 and Torvex or whatever on a residence in the middle of a neighborhood with no consultations from explosives experts or anything like that. Then let the shit burn for half an hour. Even in '85 there were police agencies from around the country that were openly scratching their heads as to why the Philly PD and mayor handled that situation like they did. Maybe it actually did have something to do with Goode being black and the police chief being black, felt like that they had to show they weren't coddling MOVE or something. All in all, it led to a course of action that was foolish even from a police point of view.

Also, to call me far left is pretty far from the mark. I do have views that you guys would consider far right as well. All in all, I'd say I'm pretty middle of the road as far as that goes. I'm a man of many contradictions.
