Did you hear about Seattles latest group to unionize? A listener sent me a picture of a flier from an alley off of the Ave in the University District a flier for a drug users union.
AUDIO FILE ON ARTICLE SITE;
This group celebrates drug use in fact, they have formed a subculture that is all about drug use. The flier says, Urban Survivors Union Proud To Be a Drug User, Seattles Drug User Union.
We are a union that is, first and foremost, for and by drug users. Our first mission is to unite as drug users, because we are the only ones who understand the oppression we face. Join our family and together we can change the laws to better protect our community!
Then it talks about how they meet the first Thursday of every month at the U District Needle Exchange.
Dori: We only look through the lens of whats best for the heroin addict
I have one big question what other laws do drug users need changed?
Marijuana is legal in this state. King County allows personal possession amounts of hard drugs. We all know that drug crimes are rarely being prosecuted by our county prosecutor. That, along with the citys de-policing, led to the downtown Seattle shooting because of all the open drug use, drug dealing, the gangs that control the drug dealing, and the violence that comes with the gangs.
The drug users union already has the mayor, Seattle City Council, city attorney, and county prosecutor working for the policies it favors. Our leadership wants as many drug users as possible. There was just a study this week stating that the county needs up to $1 billion extra each year to fight homelessness.
Trust me, it benefits local government financially to have all the despair and broken lives that come with drug use. You see, the more broken lives there are, the more government has to step in and fix them by raising taxes.
At least, they tell us they want to fix lives, but its really just about expanding government and collecting more of your money. You have to work and save to get a place to live, but government wants you to also provide affordable housing for the drug vagrants who have come flocking to our area.
The drug users union is pushing for changing the laws but I dont know how the laws could possibly be any friendlier toward them.
If they dont get what they want, will they go on a drug strike?
If you dont give us what we want, well stop using our drugs!
“And, if you REALLY push it...well get clean and get a job!”
Just damn.... SMH
LOL
Spread the word that their next meeting is held at the mayors house next Wednesday night.
oh cool. A handy list for personnel managers. Good job, druggies
Victims, eh?
Nah.
They are the victims of their own poor life choices, (and with some notable exceptions in the case of innocent addiction to pain meds) they are responsible for their situation.
Oppression?
They are not oppressed. They are, one suspects, part of the Democrat plantation chattel.
Collectivists UNITE! Straight Outta Compton? NO, straight outta Divide & Control CRIMINAL STATE.
Every once in a while the funny story of the day includes a story such as “Police went over his list of items stolen from his college dorm room. He tried to claim insurance on his loss of $200 of illegal street drugs.”
Now the union can take such a case to a Federal District judge who can take time away from blocking Trump’s illegal alien actions to help the drug holder.
Who says union membership is still declining?
First “sex workers” and now drug users.
“First sex workers and now drug users.”
I’d venture to guess there’s some overlap between those two groups. Double-dipping on those union bennies...
True. We never know what goes on behind those dark tinted windows of the union bosses’ luxury stretch limos. Probably not Bible passage discussions.
Yuge amounts of pilfered money from union members’ dues were taken by union leaders in Michigan a few months ago. Big scandal there. Now we can guess where some of the cash was spent.
Where’s their meetings held? Down at the Libertarian Addict’s Hall? (Chortle. Chortle.)
Liberty taken to extreme becomes license...
“...Liberty cannot work without virtue. It becomes corrupted by license . It even BECOMES license over time. And that is what it has become in our culture.
Without a moral people, freedom breaks down. Gun control wouldn’t even be on the table in a virtuous society.
We spend so much time trying to get the right people elected. But a perfect government cannot redeem a selfish, immoral people.
