Philadelphia teens breaking curfew are losing a lot more than their car keys.

Dozens of teenagers were arrested in the City of Brotherly Love this weekend for violating a new curfew policy aimed at keeping bands of marauding thugs off the streets.

Mayor Michael Nutter earlier this week called for kids younger than 18 to be off the streets by 9 p.m. on Fridays and Saturdays in response to a recent string of violent attacks by teenage mobs.

  1. Gee, I wonder why the kids are bored and/or angry:

    Lousy “education” system.

    Garbage on TV and absolute crap on MTV.

    Being feed garbage, which is advertised on TV.

    Their main “heroes” are rap stars, reality TV star, and sports stars.

  2. these towns and cities are going to get the revolt they’re pushing for.

  3. This headline is in violation of Ministry of Propaganda rules.

    Black rioters are not to be refered to as teens but by only official code words such as “youths” or “urban” or “inner city yoots” “under privileged”.

    Anymore violations of this policy will not be permitted!!!

  4. Typical baby boomer policies. Trust me when I say, at age 29, they RESENT you for being YOUNEGR THAN THEM. They absolutely detest youth and seeing youth because it reminds them they’re getting old. In the eyes of a boomer, the more unemployed, poor, homeless, etc young people, the better! It was bad when I was a teen in the late 90′s, I had cops giving me funny eyes for coming home around 10pm. Now, as we see, it’s not doubt much worse. Although that’s to be expected. Oh yeah, and they want to tax us all over 50% to boot to pay for their retirement, not to mention we need to fork over 50% of our income to pay rent (further funding their retirement). We work, slave away, and they get to party all day!

  5. this makes me so f%$# mad that america was once a beatiful and free place .sometimes i can’t believe what i see whats going on in america . all i can say is slavery is coming our way and fast . police state .

  6. They imprison kids without choice in schools for eighteen years expect them to stay home do their homework for God’s sake, like I did was one of the smartest teens in school…but many hated me for doing what the system expected instead of rebel! I rebelled big time, when I dropped out of Engineering half way through University!

    • Lmao!!! You – one of the smartest!! Lol!!! Stop it – you’re killing me!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

  7. Amerika is getting as dull as Germany already!

    • Not only in education but in economics. Alan Greenspan said that there is no way we can default on our debt because we have the federal reserve and we can always print money to pay for it. After W.W.1 Germany decided to pay their war debts by printing more more. It led to so much inflation that they had to trade in their old money at the rate of one trillion to one.

  8. My first thought when I heard of this preposterous evening city curfew was whoever came up with and executed the law is a dumb idiot trying to cause trouble not stop it!

    They’ll have to let it go after the kids tear up the town! Maybe they want riots in Amerika too for some unGodly reason to test reactions and limits for future cop training and are trying to push and shove the kids into it!

  9. Looks like too many cops is the problem.

  10. Ebola those fat fuck cops! Someone needs to bio terrorism their asses real good now!

  11. Never give them your age or name, simple. You have the “right to remain silent”.

  12. They are obsessed with arrests.

  13. America Land Of The Free???

    • more like Land of the oppressed

  14. Police State is here might as well get used to it or end up behind bars
    They just wanna show off their power 9PM curfew what a joke It might be earlier in the near future

  15. Seriously. This isn’t Iraq nor England. So because of an increase of crimes committed by a few – all teen must be subjected to this(nineteen eighty-four). Since when being a teen has become a crime… What’s next?

    Bring the troops home!

  16. A curfew is just going to cause civil unrest which I guess is what they are going for.

    • That’s the ticket laddy.

  17. Meet your new parents!

    • Adults next.

  18. Whats the Goddam curfew for the bars close at 2;30 are these assholes looking for trouble by screwing with the public?

    • Umm, I don’t think kids under 18 can go in bars.
