Philadelphia Mayor Jim Kenney on Tuesday signed an executive order banning guns at city recreation facilities. “Even if you have a permit to carry and you go on those premises, then you have a problem with me,” DA Larry Krasner warned.

“Our facilities are staffed by public servants who care deeply for their own communities and who mentor all young people who come through their gate as if they were their own. But too often recently our recreation centers and playgrounds have become the scene of gun battles, violence and senseless loss of life,” Ott Lovell said.

"As long as we know you’re working to keep the guns away," said Taaijah Henderson, Fletcher's cousin."A start always means you’re trying.”

Krasner, as usual, sticking it to the hard working, law abiding citizens of Philadelphia

All show and NO SUBSTANCE

Why do DAs like this talk more shite to legal gun owners than they do to the people who actually committ gun violence?

Lmaooooo

Try to disarm legal law abiding citizens, meanwhile the lawlessness continues throughout the city....

Screw Kenney, and Krasner.

Serious question. If a carrying permit is State issued, does the City's executive order matter?

Has he thought about signing an executive order banning all crime too while he’s at it Would give the rest of us peace of mind

Well that’ll solve it

DOES HE REALLY THINK AMYONE IS GOIN TO ABIDE BY THAT? WHAT A F--KIN JOKE HE IS .KENNEY AND KRASNER 2 CLOWNS

Who is going to enforce this Krasner not you that’s for sure. What a joke

Stop and frisk is racist I thought

Can you share how he is going to enforce?

A true man of action. 🤦‍♂️

Can he sign one to ban looting wawas next?

Municipal law can't supersede state law.

Guns ammo and beer come to Phila .

This is a nothing burger. Addresses nothing.

Wow... Trespassing

You can win a gun at a community park in Bucks County

A weak man making weak decisions, not a surprise.

Another reason to not live there.

Unbelievable! So now if you have a permit to carry you can no longer protect yourself. I swear this is like a twilight zone

What? That does nothing but make things worse.

This is going to fix what exactly. Krasner needs to go.

So PhillyMayor you have no problem with criminals/gang members roaming the grounds with illegals guns then?

I don’t think it’s the people with legal guns shooting people at rec centers

Another known gun free zone. Soft target for criminals..
