Comment on Anon gets rid of crackheads
snue@feddit.dk 4 days agoThe post is not just about calling people derogatory names, it is also about flying a drone with a voice message. When push comes to shove, the voice message is a threat of calling the police. Where are the crackheads going to go now ?
They have no other place to be. So asking them to leave is just asking them to go to a new place, and then a new place after that and so on, while each day some of them die due to cold, violence and other accumulating factors.
This is a systematic issue, and we need to fix the system and be compassionate, rather than just push poor people around.

I had a similar issue with the seedy drug underground in an apartment I was in. My car was an old white Crown Vic, which apparently the dealers thought it was an undercover car and they would fuck with it. I didn’t know it was them, until I stopped getting screws in my tires the same day they got arrested.
If they have no other place to be, then maybe they shouldn’t be actively fucking up the only place they can be.
Yes, there is a systemic issue with housing, but there is also some individual responsibility for drug addiction and vandalism.
