The Pennsylvania National Guard was deployed to Philadelphia Tuesday as the city braces for a second night of violent riots after tense confrontations between angry demonstrators and police hours after two officers shot and killed a Black man. Several hundred guardsmen will assist local agencies in “protecting life, property and the right to peacefully assemble and protest,” Lt. Col. Keith Hickox said in a statement Tuesday. “We are able to conduct operations in support of civil authorities to enhance local law enforcement’s ability to provide continued public safety and critical infrastructure security.”

I used to start talks by telling the audience “I was born in the richest nation on Earth, and moved to the greatest. How lucky am I?” My tender years were spent in the United States: hand over heart, I said the Pledge of Allegiance every school day. I took civics and learned about America’s history and system of government from a very early age; these left indelible marks on my consciousness, and also gave me a frame of reference to compare to the Canadian system later.

A Bronx man was left horrified when he fell more than a dozen feet into a sinkhole that was swarming with rats, making it difficult for him to even open his mouth and call for help out of fear that the rodents would get in his mouth. Leonard Shoulders, 33, had been waiting on a bus at 3rd Avenue across from Saint Barnabas Hospital on Saturday when the sidewalk caved in. ‘It could have been anyone.
