Not equating this tragedy with the car flipping on Superbowl Sunday, but this is the second time in a week we've had a national news story about violence and chaos at Temple and the culprits have been privileged young white men from the suburbs.

This guy's IG is full of dirt bikes and ATVs. How many of the assholes racing up and down Broad are from the suburbs? How many of the people who trashed police cars during the BLM protests were white people from the suburbs?

This guy comes from money. One of the men who turned himself in for the car flipping is the son of an Upper Darby town councilperson. I think it's worth examining and discussing the issue of suburban people of privilege treating Philadelphia like their personal Rage Room.
