“arrest them for their crimes and slap them in jail”

arrest them for their crimes and make them do hard agricultural labor....

They hate hard work—perhaps even more than they love their drugs.

Memphis needs them. massive crowds of youth are doing smash and grabs and running away, scot-free. Jewelry, booze, etc, are not safe even in broad daylight. Don’t go down there unarmed.

Local activist Frank Rodriguez has revealed that business owners in the Kensington area of the city are having to devise tricks to keep addicts off their stoops.
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
What I don’t get is why it took this long.... One could name dozens of simple things that can be done that would make it so uncomfortable to be ‘on their stoops’ that they naturally would move along.

If our elites have their way in the war mongering department, that scenario may not be too far off. The good news is it would end the drug user nightmare.

I thought Roof-Top Koreans would be the first choice for this. It's also a surprise that nobody has put together the old protection racket: "For $X per week, we will clean the sidewalk in front of your business. Call us 24x7 if emergencies arise."

You know, the private enterprise solution to neighborhood issues.

Every where this has been tried, the courts have ruled it is a violation of the civil rights of the homeless. Until the courts begin to say that there is no right to camp on the public streets, this will continue.

They hate hard work or any work for that matter, but I can’t imagine getting anything useful out of junkies short of chaining them to oars in a galley.

They need to be rehabilitated.

The addict is the only one who can decide that. They don't want rehab or narcan. They want dope. They love that life, living in the street, stupid liberals giving them food and blankets, etc. It's all a scam.

They need to be arrested and put in a caged/fenced/tent city. Give them a pgj and bottle of water a day. Get them away from civilization. In the Mojave, maybe?

I was speaking with a woman who works for a company near Mass and Cass in Boston and this is exactly what he did.

Totally agreed about the water cannons. They seem very effective where used.

How do you rehabilitate someone who’s never been habilitated?

I’d prefer to water canon Larry Krasner. He’s the problem.

Any research I have done has indicated that booby traps are illegal- if you can imagine a world where that is true- particularly if you do so around your home- if criminals are injured due to your booby trap- you can be charged and sued. Upside down backwards world

Philly was one of the cities cited for the most egregious voter fraud.

You forgot “living, dead and fictitious”. Which makes “landslide” a cynical term here.

They use water cannon in Israel. WE need to use them in USA and just roll the trash down the streets because that is what so much of it is. Human Trash! If it was up to me we would make examples out of them and they would never be functional and destructive again..
