Armed robberies and violent crime are becoming frequent near and in these establishments.

The belief that weed is entirely harmless and makes users docile is an embellishment.

Temple’s in trouble regardless.

Just got the all-clear text from TU police; the notice about the shooting came in at 2:59 AM, and the all-clear came in at 11:12.

I think it's more campus-adjacent than actually on campus.

Jesus Christ man. If the city/state don’t get this area under control temple is in serious trouble

I am intimately familiar with every nook and cranny of Philadelphia. Whether it’s on campus or just next to it, it is my opinion that this type of business should not be there.

There’s no valid reason to not permit it tho

What’s wrong with a hookah lounge?

The article states “a few feet” from. The city shouldn’t have permitted this business here.

Because it’s not on campus. That’s the issue that Temple struggles with as a whole. Its an open campus in the middle of North Philly. Most of the issues are just off campus or near off campus student housing a few blocks away.

It’s not on campus

Why is there a hookah lounge on campus that caters to non students open so late?

Ours typically have large stuffed animals on them.

Community is just trying to kill itself off at this point. This and a 15 y/o earlier in the night 🤷🏽‍♂️

Agreed - and “Nu Way”, in case someone tries googling them.

This is the type of thread we all need from time to time.

Write a movie script and cash in?

She is hot

It goes well with the Mad Max vibe the rest of the city has going.

The trash business is a gold mine!

Reavers!!
