Recently in this space I noted the decline in Johnstown’s quality of life, fueled in part by an influx of undesirables from Philadelphia (Filthydelphia).
Today’s edition of the Johnstown daily newspaper appeared with a story of four upstanding men from Filthydelphia busted on drug charges after raids on two Johnstown houses (to call them homes verges on blasphemy).
One big drug bust, two houses, four men from Filthydelphia nabbed.
What a coincidence.
Today, Altoona TV station WTAJ’s web site has a report on two people from – wait for it – Filthydelphia being arrested in Johnstown on drug and weapons charges.
The morons first attracted police attention for abusing a puppy in a car dealer’s lot. The female moron showed up apparently drunk to support her man and ended up being arrested.
When all was said and done, charges were filed against both due to illegal drugs and a 9 mm gun, which convicted felons, and both of these Filthydelphia lovelies reportedly were/are convicted felons, cannot have guns, not to mention the copious amounts of illegal drugs.
The criminal element in Johnstown isn’t always from Filthydelphia. We do have our share of homegrown hoods.
But how many felonies do you think were committed in Filthydelphia over the past two days by Johnstown residents? I’m betting none.
I’d love to see an honest accounting of how so many Filthydelphia thugs and criminals have ended up in Johnstown.
Even better, I’d love to see our civic leaders stop being so concerned about milking the federal government for grants and assorted handouts, or plotting secretly to swell the local population with various refugee groups, and begin both acknowledging and addressing what obviously is a problem Johnstown is experiencing with Filthydelphia refugees.
It’s nice that some of the Filthydelphia criminals are off the streets, for now. But does anybody actually know how many more Filthydelphia convicted felons, or would-be felons, remain at large in our once-fair city?
