> New and sometimes improved. You have got to admit that many people live in
US and philly as a reaction to things they have no control of. Just because
we have recreation centers in many neighborhoods, did anyone think to ask
how many people use them? Well I tried to gauge the number of people who
used the ball fields and recreation centers in a few neighborhoods around my
home on warm days. The answer maybe twenty , out of thousands. Most people
eat, go to work , may have a pet and can't possibly exercise and eat right
in this polluted hell so when violence come a running when people can't make
a living or exercise is it any wonder? Really? Just add ten thousand
immigrants and you have one volatile mix. We are screwing ourselves but the
news media won't tell you. They pay the happy media tens of thousands to
pretend everyone here is like Rocky. I got news for anyone with any logical
or sane chemicals. Try running around s.Philly for a few years and if they
could be champion, I will hit the lottery . The pollution makes any serious
competitor here non existant. If this is one fifth as bad as its like in
other cities. God help this country.
