It's a parenting issue. If your kid can't make it thru the day without destroying or raping, they probably haven't been raised correctly. Time to stop making excuses for these kids.

It’s the annual burger pop-up. Around this time every year, wildly different menu, still awesome.

You can hope back on the Pway west from there. Since I'm only going to Carnegie I just go thru greentree and stay off the parkway. After 28 my nerves are fried enough.

Sounds like you should step away from the computer and head down to this area to gently remind the students to mind their manners. That's all they need is some positive encouragement.

Yep, take out only thanks to the actions of the those people and Starbucks corporate worried about even more backlash in Pittsburgh what with the ongoing unionization efforts.
To my knowledge, one barista stood up to those people and was reprimanded by corporate, while the rest of the staff took down “one student at a time” signs posted by police on detail, and continued to allow them in despite admonition by said police, and, thus, perpetuating the situation.
Regardless, it is incredibly sad that the actions of those people have, and continue to, make a once peaceful area virtually impassable during certain afternoon hours, make pedestrians cower and avoid businesses because of their actions.
The worst part is that no one is willing to do anything—except for question the vernacular used when referring to the perpetrators, rather than actually punishing them—or at least attempting real solutions to the problem.

I mean, that's the most correct solution, but it's not one the school can implement, exactly.

That makes all the sense in the world, not sure why I never think of it.

Sunflower flourishes well under well-drained moist, lime soil. It prefers good sunlight. Domesticated varieties bear single large flowerhead (Pseudanthium) at the top. Unlike its domestic cultivar type, wild sunflower plant exhibits multiple branches with each branch carrying its own individual flower-head. The sunflower head consists of two types of flowers. While its perimeter consists of sterile, large, yellow petals (ray flowers), the central disk is made up of numerous tiny fertile flowers arranged in concentric whorls, which subsequently convert into achenes (edible seeds).

This is why I just go over the West End Bridge when coming from 28 S. Fuck all that nonsense.

No one is avoiding a martial arts school that's been in the area for 40 years because one time kids went inside and made him look like a dummy.

“Those” is a demonstrative pronoun. The fact that so-called pc attitudes and cancel culture have made its use of merely specifically pointing something out is ridiculous.
In this case, it isn’t people at large, it’s those people who leave Alderdice and hangout at Starbucks while waiting for the bus who are creating the problem.
You know, those people who shoplift at all the stores in that area and beat up an elderly female shop owner who tried to protect her business.
Those people who assaulted a uniformed city police officer in Starbucks and sent him to the hospital.
Those people who are underage and openly smoke marijuana on Murray Avenue (and in buildings on Murray they break into).
Those people whose daily, riotous behavior scares the elderly residents off the streets, and makes egress into the pediatric orthodontist and the physically therapy facilities within the Starbucks building dangerous.
Those people who leave their garbage strewn about the sidewalks, overturn trash cans and shatter plate glass windows.
Those people who gang raped a 15 year old special needs girl in the bathroom inside Starbucks and at an adjacent vacant Murray Avenue property they broke in to.
Those people who ditched loaded handguns in the surrounding Squirrel Hill neighborhood outside of Alderdice.
Stop getting caught up in this fashionable inclusion rhetoric when “Senei George” is merely pointing out those people responsible for the myriad problems on the block.
In fact, your terminology could be equally construed as a similarly racist comment, except for George is an actual sensei, much like those people are actually directly responsible for the issues (and more) enumerated above.
But hey, why don’t you come down to Murray and Forward around 2-2:30 and see for yourself?

These kids are starting giant brawls and raping girls and your chief concern is that a business owner should watch the words he uses to describe them?
