Wawa closes Philly stores over ‘safety’ concerns

PM:

Two Wawa locations are closing in the Center City portion of Philadelphia after the popular convenience store and gas station chain has experienced an increase of crime at its locations.

According to local news, a statement from Wawa released Friday read that the stores are closing due to “continued safety and security challenges and business factors.” The locations closing are located at 19th and Market St. and 12th and Market St. 

The chain, which is popular across much of the North East, is opening new locations in Georgia. According to 11Aive news, Wawa announced on Wednesday that they plan to open as many as 20 stores in Georgia by 2024.

In late September, over 100 looters and marauders, many of whom appeared to be juveniles, pillaged and destroyed a Philadelphia Wawa. more

  1. I’m shocked! Dumber than dirt Philadelphia officials hired the completely useless, unaccomplished, zero potential, complete failure, Portland Police Chief and things didn’t improve? Welp, so much for hiring a politically correct, Affirmative Action scandal plagued female police chief and hoping for a better future. Hate it when that happens.

  2. This business is also responsible for protecting its employees and customers from known risks while on their premises.

    Due to Democrats, not opening thaes stores is the only way they can do that.

  4. And if there are places where shutting a store down affects only Black people, that’s because THEY chose to self-segregate and no other reason.

    Even the very cash poor will be enabled to metastize their inner-city cancer to the ‘burbs where they still have markets if they so desire, Section 8 will take them anywhere a bus goes, and that bus will be subsidized too.

    Not everyone who lives in a food desert made it themselves.

    But its entirely their own choice if they continue to live in it.

They only screw themselves and they wonder why businesses don’t want to open in their neighborhoods.

  7. “In 2020, the Philadelphia District Attorney Larry Krasner announced that police would no longer arrest criminals for non-violent offenses, such as shoplifting.”

    Well, there ya go.

  10. If rising food prices doesn’t upset anyone, then putting more high priced gas in your car to travel further to buy the higher priced food so be okay also. Smart thinking for drunken sailors.

  11. How bad will this get? Only getting worse, and no effort being made to slow it down. That nice brawl in a St Louis Walmart was a test case. Nothing happened, and the joyful youths ran out the store. Pockets full. Expect much more of that.
