Streets of Philadelphia, Kensington Avenue

[line-em-up]

This thread needs a song.


I was bruised and battered, I couldn't tell what I felt
I was unrecognizable to myself
I saw my reflection in a window, I didn't know my own face
Oh brother are you gonna leave me wastin' away
On the Streets of Philadelphia

I walked the avenue, 'til my legs felt like stone
I heard the voices of friends vanished and gone
At night I could hear the blood in my veins
It was just as black and whispering as the rain
On the Streets of Philadelphia

Ain't no angel gonna greet me
It's just you and I, my friend
My clothes don't fit me no more
I walked a thousand miles
Just to slip this skin

The night has fallen, I'm lyin' awake
I can feel myself fading away
So receive me brother with your faithless kiss
Or will we leave each other alone like this
On the Streets of Philadelphia

This song was about the AIDS issue, but it's incredible how perfectly it fits the current situation.

Maybe the drugs are the cure?

That may be it.

Fentanyl is cheaper and easier to produce.

It will also wipe out that whole block.

For about 20 years now, my plan to take over save the world has been to first get rid of all warning signs, second all lawyers are going to have to find new jobs (cause that's why we have warning signs), third I'm going to put the warning signs inside all the mini vans (the sight of them offends me) and launch them to the moon. After that is done, we rename Earth to Texas and now everyone is Texan, no more USA/Russia/Austraila/China... just the planet of Texas. Then I am going to leave everyone the fuck alone as I expect they will leave me alone. We all go on about our business, and in about 20-50 years everything will just work it's self out. It should also make the competition for the Darwin award very strong each year, I'm really looking forward to it.

Sounds good to me

That looks like scenes from “The Walking Dead”. Scary to think how bad it is.

Idle hands...

It's sad that the some of the coolest and most beautiful places in America run by Democrats are complete shit holes and almost inhabitable anymore. I watch old biographies of Detroit, NY, California, Philly, , DC, etc. from the 40s and 50s and they were such great places to live and patronize. Now you can't even look at present day videos of them, let alone physically visit them.

Democrat politicians who control these cities across the country would gladly give heroin and meth to every man, woman, child and their pets to get their votes..they could care less how many lives they ruin or deaths they cause as long as they get to maintain their control.

Afghanistan is full of heroin

I could only watch a few minutes of that....it's really hard to believe it's gotten as bad as it is without seeing it with your own eyes. I wonder what the common drug is that has most of them doubled over at the waist...heroin maybe?

the 'kensington cocktail' is a combination of fentanyl and Xylazine
