Plenty to sort through from Marconi coming soon, but first:
Today on E Passyunk, a man was ripping down #blacklivesmatter signs made by local children outside a community center.
Filmed here, someone yells "Black lives matter" to which this guy responds, "Not to me, they don't"

Sure would be great if we knew who this was..
Meet Michael G. Henkel, a 61 year old who lives around the corner on 12th St, supervisor for the Writ Services Unit of the Philadelphia Family Court.

Writ services, for anyone who's unfamiliar, are the people who serve notices of upcoming dates to defendants. This is crucial to the function of family court, and would be a real problem if the person overseeing it had some explicit racial biases.
So having seen roaming the streets, ripping down children's signs, yelling about how little he cares if black people live or die, seems like.. maybe not someone fit to participate in legal processes *anywhere*, let alone in a city with a population who's 44% black.
But we really don't have to stand for this.
If folks are looking to let the city know how they feel about this, contacting @bgabernathy, @phillymayor and
@DA_LarryKrasner is probably a good start.

Good work folks. But he’s not the only South Philly MAGA CHUD who worked in that courthouse. More on this soon.
