Coatesville Dems: Boy would it be fun to have a beer with them! “Steel Stories — Coatesville Steel: The Women's Experience

Welcome to the Coatesville Dems Blog

Public Corruption in Chester County, PA

I believe an unlikely mix of alleged drug trafficking related politicos and alleged white nationalist related politicos united to elect the infamous “Bloc of Four” in the abysmal voter turnout election of 2005. During their four year term the drug business was good again and white nationalists used Coatesville as an example on white supremacist websites like “Stormfront”. Strong community organization and support from law enforcement, in particular Chester County District Attorney Joseph W. Carroll has begun to turn our community around. The Chester County drug trafficking that I believe centers on Coatesville continues and I believe we still have public officials in place that profit from the drug sales. But the people here are amazing and continue to work against the odds to make Coatesville a good place to live.

Boy would it be fun to have a beer with them! “Steel Stories — Coatesville Steel: The Women's Experience

I know Jim Ziegler. I might have met the women in this video. Or rather they might know me because of Pitcherella's Pharmacy, where a lot of Lukens steelworkers stopped after work, including for a while, me. I’m sure some of my family & friends know them.
