You likely heard about the recent rape on a Philly subway, where bystanders sat and filmed it and nobody called the police. That is a collection of pretty crappy human beings IMO. The City of Philly, however, is now considering charging those people...not sure with what. But that's a pretty slippery slope if they go down that path.
Does anyone know how easy/hard it is to get a CCW permit in Philly? Are they "Shall Issue" or "No Issue"...or something in between?

Philadelphia. The city of brotherly love, founded by William Penn as a city dedicated to Quaker ideals, including peace and, of course, brotherly love.
Most of that seems to have gone in the crapper since Penn's time.
Now, the city is as violent as just about any major city in the nation. The idea of brotherly love is, at best, lip service the city pays to its origins but has no meaning otherwise inside the city, much less the surrounding areas.
I mean, someone can be raped on a train and no one do anything about it. That's not a hypothetical, either. It actually happened. Now, as Ed Morrissey points out at our sister site Hot Air, Philly-area police are considering charges against the bystanders.
