And it wasn't an apocalyptic infection they were suffering from - but the same bad batch of bad drugs.

I have a feeling most of them don’t vote......

Druggies are not responsible enough to vote, neither are alcoholics

Why was this considered unusual?

“bad batch of drugs”......

As opposed to a “good” batch of drugs.

Had a similar incident in downtown Tulsa near the homeless shelter about 6 months ago. They had to pull nearly every ambulance in the city to the scene. Anybody else having a medical issue then was going to be SOL.

Does not mean that some enterprising turn out the vote worker doesn’t help them ‘cast’ their vote.

My daughter lives in Bushwick, and she says this is an everyday occurrence, just not so many at one time. Every day. Every day people die right there taking stupid drugs. I just don’t get some people.

Eventually, this problem will fix itself.
I’m running into more people who have a FWIS attitude (Forget Work I’m Stoned) and they are desperate to find someone to pay them to get high.

Not before there is tons of collateral damage to the innocent and responsible folks. Drug addicts will turn to some pretty barbaric methods to get money for their drugs. More people need to start arming themselves.
