Not excusing it. Just point out the bias.
Edit: there's the typical r/pittsburgh - called out bias that happened to be left-leaning and got downvoted.

There are differences in scale and implications, and just saying everyone does it is unhelpful

Wouldn’t have had to ask someone to move my car for me while I was at work

Entirely appropriate. They are giving you prior notice.

I gotta ask. What would be different with more notice?

A North Side nuisance bar was shut down early last year, a South Side one closed late last year when their liquor license got revoked, and there's one in Westmoreland (iirc) that's just been closed down temporarily. Don't mess around with the PLCB/PSP's BLCE.
Regardless of action/inaction, my point was there are laws in place to deal with problematic places, whereas the Kennywood issue appears to be Zappala just having a tantrum because someone didn't do what he wanted. He has no legal authority to just order people around.

Unless they are breaking an actual law, why would he have the authority to prevent them from opening?

I know that my comment is a cop out but I like Mineos a lot as well as Iron Born and also Pizza King in Munhall. All pizza. All different. All very nice in their own way.

I think this article will tell you everything you need to know about Casey Mullen and why he would be a great Magisterial District Judge.

Thanks for this perspective.
He struck me as honest and unassuming… which is not how I would describe most attorneys I know. I’m always going to be impressed by candidates that do their own legwork and ask for support.

There were good people there but you can't be a good person to make it there. All of the higher ups are ex-"gangster" types. They really want a person that is decent at the job but then ends up quitting. If you quit all of your business goes to the dude above you in the pyramid.

Yes, let’s target one of the biggest youth employers in the region because some bad youth did something bad. If only there was a way to improve their communities, education and job opportunities that would somehow encourage good behavior.
