Always keep a couple crackheads. Also, make sure you filter your crackheads. You want the ones who'll help you clean your garage for $10, not the ones who will clean out your garage for about $10 down at the pawn shop.
Promote a positive environment, help turn the crackden into a crackhome.
You have never lived in a Crack friendly neighborhood.
You just have to control the rent by buying a gun and shooting in the air every other day.
Please use blanks and ear protection for safety.
Real story. A friend of mine was working on new year’s, maintenance trailer inside a factory. Suddenly a puff of dust. A new hole on the ceiling and at his desk, the line going two feet from his head, and a ~.45 round at the rubberized metal floor.
Bullets go down about as fast as they go up.
Gotta fire some rent control rounds into the air.... it's all about #balance
If you're going to do this, use blanks or shotgun with birdshot. That way you're not raining lead on some unsuspecting person a mile or so away and birdshot is just small bbs that don't have a high terminal velocity.
I dunno. Family rained on by stray bullets printed everywhere will REALLY drive the rent down

That's why you befriend them instead of scaring them away.
Until the fact that you befriended them gets you fired because it scares your coworkers.
I lived in a run down part of town a few houses down from a crack/coke distributor in college and once a friend locked himself out of the car. Before we could even panic someone popped out with a hanger and opened it in like 30 seconds. Crisis averted!
Also got pulled over on my own street regularly though (“you looked nervous”) and my dad almost got arrested when he was dropping off plants (cacti and flowers).
"You look nervous"
"Bruh I am nervous, all the time, everywhere."
It’s because you pulled me over my guy
There are some radical left-wing neighborhoods in Germany, that try to keep rents low by shooting into the air with blank firearms
I half-expected the German radical left-wing to keep rents low by shooting into the landlords with firearms.
Fuck! That drone was just some chump? I'm telling the boys we got the block back!!
No good deed goes unpunished
What a dehumanizing way to talk about homeless people :/
People you know, and yourself, could become homeless tomorrow. This dehumanization leads to violence against homeless people.
They're people too and they deserve a place to be. The solution to homelessness is not just moving them to another side of town, but among other things reducing the cost of apartments and houses.
Are all Crackheads homeless?
Nope, shit untill housing prices went up so high most crack heads had stable housing.
But in most places income assistance isn't enough so they end up homeless
Let's assume this is real, if you are noisy to the point of bothering others and you happen to be spending your time on the street doing it, being called derogatory names is expected, irrespective of your home ownership status.
The 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.
Who said they were homeless? That's a pretty pejorative assumption you're making.
This whole comment section is nuts. Who knew a green text about drones and crackheads could set off such vitriol filled discussions about gendered language, homelessness, and whether human dignity can be measured in dollars?
Is there a community for wtf Lemmy takes? Because this comment section is a trove for some of that
This one's for every friend who got taken off the streets
So the upper class could sleep, so the upper class could sleep
I'll miss the spraypaint and slashed tires.-Pat "the Bunny" Schneeweis
This is the first time I've ever seen any one in the wild mention Pat the Bunny. Painfully under appreciated.
Agreed. Glad to see he seems to be doing well and has an album coming out with his new band next month!
