PA State Rep. Amen Brown Looks to Curb Violence in Philadelphia - a podcast by Radio.com

To lead off today’s second hour, Pennsylvania State Rep. Amen Brown, who represents West Philadelphia, rejoins the Dom Giordano Program to discuss why he is publicly calling for something to change regarding the rampant illegal dirt bikes and ATVs in the city of Philadelphia. First, Giordano asks Representative Brown for his assessment on the underlying causes for the spike in violence in the city, with Brown telling that repeat offenders are getting off regularly leading to a lack of accountability and a feeling of lawlessness. Rep. Brown explains what needs to be done within the community of Philadelphia, with those who have shared experiences, to push back against the spread of violence. Then, Giordano hones in on the initial issue, asking Rep. Brown what he’s doing to try to stop the regular parades of illegal dirt bikes and ATVs, with Rep. Brown explaining a proposed legislation that will make it so government officials can keep confiscated vehicles rather than auction them back, many times with the original owner bidding on and winning back their vehicle.
