That was more incoherent than lying IMO. @real had just stated that the murder rate in the 30 largest cities has increased by 14% in the last year (true or false - I dunno), then he tried to make it specific by mentioning Philly since that's where he was, perhaps visibly realized that it didn't support his overall point, went back to it ("just terribly increasing"), and segued into Chicago, which does support his thesis.

This is exactly what I was thinking. I honestly don't think he was talking about Philadelphia, specifically, when he said "terribly increasing." I think his sentence was just fragmented.
