Philadelphia is a busy urban nucleus. February 17
th was no exception. Famous musician John Legend and Senator Elizabeth Warren held a $1,000 a person fundraiser for Billionaire George Soros backed Philadelphia District Attorney, Larry Krasner. Just prior to these famous folks and their deep-pocketed socialist friends celebrating a murderous political figure, 8 people were shot in broad daylight in a busy Philadelphia intersection leaving one man in critical condition.
