  A city by its very nature has a much higher concentration of people. There’s just as big of a drug problem on rural areas but don’t let that detract from the narrative your trying to push.

  There’s never a suggestion from conservatives on how to fix it…just “librul cities bad” as if saying that Republicans would be sooo much better.

    Of course. But San Francisco is way worse. Brah, even non-conservatives know how much of a shithole san fran has become.

    Are they trying to push a narrative as well? lmao

      This shit is in literally every city. Does it exist in every street? No. Not even remotely, but there’s absolutely an area or two where they tend to hang out at - outside of shelters, or in areas where police have “permitted” their existence there. Even in San Francisco, there’s like a couple areas that are “bad” but my god y’all act like the entirety of San Francisco is that way…it’s not.

      The entire point of your posted article/video is manufactured rage. I would never walk with me and my daughter down one of these streets. They purposely recorded their “innocent, young” daughter to walk down that street so they could film something to manipulate gullible people like you into feeling anger over the state of things, like it’s some simple black and white issue. There’s never any nuance with conservative arguments, there never can be. The drug epidemic is bad due to the rise in Fentanyl in general and that shit is prevalent in many rural counties too, but you don’t see it reported, because there isn’t as big of a concentration of people…it’s not as noticeable. If there was an “easy fix” to the drug epidemic it would have been done decades ago…but it’s not. It’s an insanely complex issue.
