I was just reading that.

I almost feel like going there for a "field trip".

1/2 wish I had a Gas Chromatograph or something to test the contents of the street drugs.

Not sure I would even trust the pot sold on the street.

Anybody who buys pills on the street, should grind up all the pills, mix it VERY THOROUGHLY, and then use a milligram scale to measure doses.

otherwise the risk of getting a concentrated dose of Fentanyl is too great.

A few years ago there was a Penthouse for sale there for about $4 Million. Entire top floor, maybe 8000 square feet. Great place to grow pot ?

There are so many news article which I didn't save.

I read one, about a woman activist in South America, anti-war & anti-American.

She was kidnapped, and they took turns stuffing block shaped pieces of wood into her vagina.

She overheard the head guy talking to his wife on the phone. A very American conversation where he discussed how late he would be for dinner.

It wasn't about rape. It was about intimidating & de-moralizing her.

That's what happens when you make rent $4000/month. You price people out of their own existences and they turn to whatever keeps them alive.

Poverty and homelessness are policy choices.

poverty, yes, homelessness, usually yes, but not all the time...

 

[Cannavore]

most homeless are exactly as i said - they've been priced out of their own living expenses via gentrification.


there are 59 empty properties for every homeless man/woman/child in the USA


houston texas just did a pilot program where they gave homeless folks a place to live and to have an address to maintain employment -- most succeeded.

Mississippi is solving their homeless problem by building housing for them. I bet red states will have to lead the way on this issue.

Now New Mexico & New Jersey are having their "worst ever" wildfire years.

Of course state lines are mostly a man-made construct.

Cali is doing the same, it just costs in excess of $700,000 per unit and takes 20 years from concept to approval, then another 5 for construction, with 150% cost overruns.

Mississippi is not doing it the Cali way (from what I gather). Cali is not interested in solving the problem, obviously.

Wow that guy is annoying. And the jokes are horrible. But god forbid someone gets market price for their private property. Oh the humanity! Let me guess…you think the goverment should build some brutalist housing projects for all you poor lefties to live in for free?

locally, they tore down three apartment complexes (they needed renovation) that held an enormous percentage of our low-income folks. but their housing allowances ran out long before the shiny new places were ready to inhabit, plus, they did not build as many as they razed. now they are passing a law locally making it a crime to camp on public property IE city land, greenbelts, etc. before , we had maybe two dozen or so homeless. now, they are a plague of fleas infesting the city parks & libraries during the day, and hiding God knows where at night. local LEO tries to roust them whenever spotted hiding under bridges etc...the city harassed a church group that fed anyone that showed up daily, until the amazing minds in charge decreed that they could only feed people twice a week. another group was letting them sleep in one of the church buildings until the city sicced the fire marshal on them. ???

 

[zachrockbadenof]

it sucks.... the greatest nation in the world should not have homeless, and every american should have health insurance..... but if u dig deeper someone, somewhere is making $$$$.... same with drugs.... they could stop the flow, but someone is getting rich
