In Colorado Springs, meth accounts for the majority of drug overdose deaths. Many of the deceased were living outside, using the drug to stay awake.

      How does it feel to be a crab in a bucket?

      I swear, some people live for the opportunity to look down their nose at someone. If not for that feeling of smug superiority, they might have to face the societal failures that could put themselves in the exact spot.

      No, better to think you’re too good to hit rock-bottom than face the fact that anyone could be thrown away by the hierarchy that you put so much misplaced faith in.

      Our society has made a choice that some people should be homeless. Instead of reflecting on that fact, you assist in dehumanizing those who you clearly know nothing about. What a cool dude.

          Not your “homie.”

          And you didn’t address anything I said.

          I can see introspection isn’t your strong suit.

            Sure thing, homie! I’m not in a “crabs in a bucket” scenario because I am not a street garbage piece of shit meth lover. I would probably consider myself more of an “arm the homeless” kind of guy because they’ll just kill each other and then the police will come in and sweep up the dregs. And I’m a “feed the homeless” kind of guy, but more like feed them sandwiches with marbles and thumbtacks in them so they break their teeth and get infections. You need to be proactive, like running entire homeless encampments through industrial shredders and then bulldozing the resultant slurry into the ocean. 😉
