Philadelphia

Omerta

I have practiced law in Philadelphia for over ¼ of a century and have talked to innumerable Philadelphia victims and practitioners of crime. I have also had the opportunity to interview hundreds of arrested individuals at our Philadelphia Police Department’s roundhouse. These experiences have given me confidence in making the assertion that Philadelphia newspapers' gross littering habits are of invaluable telltale assistance to bums who troll for vulnerable homes in Philadelphia. I am talking both about our home grown home invaders and transient home invaders who understand that Northeast Philadelphia renews itself weekly as the East coast's premiere newspaper and advertising dump.

The assertion that newspaper litter deposited on private residential property attracts opportunistic crime, I believe, is intuitively obvious to discerning Philadelphia newspaper reporters, politicians, citizens and police.

More disturbing is that the Philadelphia News Media, including the Philadelphia's TV talking heads that seemingly are governed by an Omerta like code. The Philadelphia news industry with evident solidarity has never crossed their journalistic blue line by never editorializing for a "Just say no to Philadelphia corporate newspaper litter and corporate Advertising LITTER in Philadelphia. \

Under Philadelphia's journalistic reign of silence: THERE has been No Journalistic out cry for the arrest of the Corporate executives who order the litter storms.

Tons of weekly-uninvited newspaper and advertising litter dumped on residential
property, when marinating in the glistening evening, serve as the #1 enticement
for bums who make a living by trolling for prospective sites
for home invasions.

(Credible fear of home invasion is coincidently reason #1 why homeowners own
guns.)

In these regards DJG1.com strongly calls for all civic minded persons to boycott all the publications of our Philadelphia media moguls... such as those presses operated by described marketing genius, Brian Tierney and chief money guy
Bruce Toll of the newly formed Philadelphia Media Holdings LLC .

A boycott against Media Holdings LLC.'s newspaper operations such as the Phialdelphia Inquirer and the Philadelphia Daily News might stir the Tierneys and Tolls of the world to exercise
a mite of moral leadership by not encouraging paper spewing
operations. (Note: uber-litter machine aka The Northeast Times is listed as a partner on the Media Holdings LLC's website Philly.com

Think what good might happen if Philadelphia's newspaper littering operations decided to limit their litter to only once a month in Philadelphia.

Such a self-restraint on corporate litter would prove to be the single largest possible step in litter control for dump city.

If big-time media operations cleaned up their act by limiting corporate litter to once a month it would a give their press’s ya-hoo clamor for limiting
gun purchases to once a month some credible gravitas.

More to the point ....

I mean why wait until some kid's throat is slit by a home intruder, or woman ravished or man hot in the head during a home invasion gone awry, and some brave, discerning cop*
dares to publicly connect the murder to newspaper litter, in order for an outcry to rise for a LITTER
FREE CITY.

When newspaper investors like Tierney and Toll do not to take the obvious steps to curtail crime, by
taking remedial actions in areas where they have direct control, their
newspapers’ great concerns over crime steam only as pure pot stirring, profit
making, phony baloney.

If their is any misstatement in the above, or any exaggeration ....corrections are invited.

* Possibly the hypothetical brave discerning cop referenced above, who might emerge someday, would make the a public connection to corporate litter and death at the risk of encountering the ire of Philadelphia's primo politicos. Filthadelphia's primo political blind mice seem to love being featured in the press, and like many addicts, publicity addicts in this instance, the mice fear what they love. That is the mice might also rightly fear the power of the print media that fouls their city with tons of paper and plastic litter.

Note: Among other primo Philadelphia politicos, the Philadelphia Police Commissioners, Philadelphia Mayors and Philadelphia District Attorneys, past and present, have never arrested, never prosecuted or never asked for legislation holding big time corporate print moguls personally responsible for littering private residential properties, or even the public pavements and streets in the city of Philadelphia. Being slobs is a cultural fact in Filthadelphia.

Again: If their is any misstatement in the above or any exaggerations perceived ....corrections are invited.

Is Philadelphia on Death Watch Filename: j0366102.wmf waiting for Murder In Cold Blood.

Not so strangely, (self interest here), the Philadelphia's Press, the Police, and the Political and Populace (PPP&P) pretend not to understand the fundamental relationships between our city’s filthy ambiance, crime, and the unmitigated weekly deluges of corporate litter.

Perhaps some future hoopla about some future high profile murder in COLD BLOOD, that is a direct result of an opportunistic home invasion, spurred by the tale tell corporate litter dumped on some unfortunate soul’s property will get the PPP&P's of Philadelphia to… duh…say sumptin…duh…do sumptin.

Has a Philadelphian ever heard a Mayoral candidate say: “Just say no to corporate litter in Philadelphia.”? Duh…well…noooooooo….
