Why doesn't glitter just develop a part of the program where it picks up the trash bags at the end of each day to haul directly to the dump? I understand why the union has issues with the union members handling trash outside of its agreed-upon terms and conditions. So glitter could just get a pick-up truck and go around and grab the trash from designated areas itself, eh?

2021 looks to be an outlier in PA specifically from the last 5 years, tho still an increase (109 incidents in ‘19, 101 in ‘20, 69 in ‘21 and 114 in ‘22). Still not a good trend, the surge seemed to happen in 2017 (not surprising), and now we’re right back there.

I sincerely doubt this captures even a small fraction of actual incidents.

This comes off as the 76ers ownership group trying to pit one minority group against another.

I think most 76ers fans can agree that Josh Harris sucks. The man only views the 76ers as an asset, evident by him owning the NJ Devils and his attempts at buying both the Denver Broncos and now the Washington Commanders. I do not believe that he cares about anyone in the Philadelphia community and that the only thing that matters to him is how he can maximize his profits regardless of who it'll affect or how he gets there.

I went to the 76ers-Magic game where it was also Lunar New Year celebration night. They only put up a few decorations at the entrances and had digital signage. They claim that they care about the Chinatown community yet they did the absolute bare minimum to even acknowledge the biggest holiday in the Chinese community.

I do not trust a single thing that Josh Harris and his group are promising with the 76 Place proposal.
