Shits getting whack in PNW.... You too? * 1
    #26999552 - 10/23/20 11:28 AM (3 years, 3 months ago)

This went down at 11:11pm last night:

Just heard someone outside yelling at the top of their lungs.
Grabbed my phone, ran outside.

Dude in middle of street, double barrel shotgun in hand.
Girl walking down the street slowly, sauntering.

I try to understand what hes yelling, I know he sees me, and I know I am now a sole bystander.

I finally piece together what hes yelling about.
He'd caught her breaking into his car. He had set up a bed in a trailer out front of his home.
"They've taken everything from me, I have nothing left."

Now that the women had walked down the street a bit, I approached him.

Turns out we've been experiencing the same thing, only he took vigilantly justice.

I've had my car broken into and pilfered through over 10 times in the past 2 months. Locked or not. As well as anything of value in our outside storage was recently jacked.

This morning, my hood, my gas tank, my paperwork, everything opened and taken.

Just as I was processing my own situation, I got a call from work asking if I could come in early because a tweaker I'd had come in the previous week and essentially case the place, came in and bluntly stole a valuable item, yelling obscenities on the way out to my sweet coworker.

Both my work locations have been broke into multiple times in the past month.

People are becoming more savage here.
Turning to lower acts.
Less and less humanity.

Its "ghetto" kids. This has been on the rise for years and years here. They load up a car full of kids and go into neighbors usually suburban and rob cars as the new come up. Often stealing cars with keys left in them joyriding them around and ditching them in the ghetto destroyed. Get cameras and lights on ur house and lock everything. Everyone has that shit now its very hard for police to stop and these are often juvenile defenders that get off with next to nothing. If u steal a car as a juvenile in my state lit grand theft u dont go to jail u go to classes to learn why stealing is wrong. I get throwing some teenager in jail ruins their life but they can't be allowed to get off just Scottish free for stealing a car.

Even where I live, a pretty stable and well run city mostly, is just swarmed with homeless and tweakers and lunatics if you go anywhere near the downtown core, I have some sympathy because so many shelters have been closed, but it's a bit alarming everywhere you go just tents and blank-eyed or wild-eyed brands of zombies shuffling about or shouting and swearing at each other. Not many guns here in Soviet Kanukistan, so there haven't been many deaths -aside from the constant tide of overdoses- but tons of property crime and assaults, usually from one homeless to another.

It's a pretty gross state of affairs since at this point it's the Province's problem to fix, and the solution so far is put all the homeless in parks, which seems less and less appropriate as winter comes.

I appreciate these people need help, many of them, but I also understand the 'not in my backyard' mentality, cus frankly a good number of them steal constantly, from each other, from businesses, from homes, and many more are just fucking deranged and shouldn't be allowed out of an institution in a sane world imo.

I can't speak to the states, but I know where I'm at this all comes down to decades of mismanagement and a refusal to properly address 1. economic instability 2. mental illness and 3. drug policy

Most of the homeless here either suffer from Mental illness, addiction, or usually both, and the government's response has been inadequate for years, COVID has only exacerbated the situation that the Province caused through closing mental institutions decades ago, with no real thought as to what would happen to those mentally ill folks who frankly can never hold down a job, and the continuation of the war on drugs has obviously done nothing to help struggling people.

One way or another, we end up dealing with our society's problems, it just gets messier and more expensive the longer it's put off by mismanagement

Yeah but whats the actual solution? I've been racking my brain for years for a solution to the homelessness problem in places like Seattle and California. Obviously being hard on these people doesn't help but throwing money at it doesn't seem to help either. I mean we've seen pretty much everytime u give these people housing and money they just destroy it and end up back on the streets. Most these people don't want to play by any those sorts of rules anyway.

it's a tricky problem to be sure, especially because my take is basically the best way to help the homeless is to help people before they reach rock bottom. A lot of the individuals out there now will never be productive members of society, or even accept living in a home or whatever aid comes their way. The best thing to do in my mind is push social programs, and socialist-leaning policies like universal basic income and guaranteed housing (and in the states, universal healthcare), and funding education to ensure that fewer people in future generations fall through the cracks.

Problems like this, imo, are why we need government, I think if we decriminalized drug use and possession, opened and funded better facilities to treat and house the mentally ill, and focused on better educating youth -and helping people avoid being destitute before they end up on the street- we would be well on our way to fixing the problem. It would be expensive and not an immediate fix, but the current approach is actually very costly as well, its a matter of how the money is used: do we want to spend on social programs, and helping people survive and thrive early, or spend on cops and prisons and damage control when inevitably the unemployed, untreated mentally ill -those often without family who can afford to help them- turn inevitably to petty crime and drug abuse and so on to try to scrape by.

As a group its true, the homeless can be very hard to deal with but one way or another, something will be done I just would rather we were proactive and socially minded so that we didn't find ourselves resorting to more draconian and brutal methods down the line.

I don't like in the PNW, that sounds pretty crazy. It's nothing like that here. I mean, there are homeless people sure, but nothing like what you guys describe.

I think one thing that has to happen is that the cost of housing has to come down, but there are a ton of barriers in the way of that. We need to build a LOT more housing across the US, but there are so many different interests that drive up the cost of building housing. Cities always want to say what you can and can't build, that in and of itself drives up cost. And they want this permit and that permit, and they want to tell you what designs they do or don't want, all of which drives up cost. Then they want you to pay for X improvements and Y improvements. And they want to dictate the density and the amenities and all sorts of other crap, and they want you to put in a trail and have X amount of green space. Then the state comes in and does the same thing. Then the neighbors complain because they want X and Y and Z and you have to pay for it...

It's a madhouse when if you own the land you should just be able to build whatever the hell you want.

not sure about the states, but here in B.C. I know a lot of the homeless people come from out of town or the province even, because the rest of the country is too cold to survive winter outside, and then combine that with some of the highest housing costs in the country. Back before the 2010 winter Olympics actually Vancouver gave homeless people tickets to travel out of town, and naturally most came to Victoria and probably haven't left since then.

The rate of violent crime is actually quite low, so its hardly an apocalyptic state of affairs, but its still very cringe

All the shit u described lit is the difference between places like here and China. Yeah it costs more money but we mandate it so we don't have peoples fucking houses collapse on them where as they dont get hung up on stupid things like safety and health regulations in really anything they do. Thats why china is doing so well cuz they can cut corners and use essentially slave labor. The problem isn't the money with the housing shortage.

Did you guys know that there are more vacant houses in America than there are homeless people? Can't remember where I heard that from but it was from a legit source on real estate.

And yeah this is what happens when your country has a shitty welfare system. this is also what happens when you stop giving people unemployment benefits during a pandemic when there are literally no jobs available except for the one you will return to once the pandemic ends or once the numbers go lower. That is if your place of employment has not gone bankrupt by now.

And start booby-trapping your stuff. Like glue a needle on the underside of your car's door handle. Stick some needles on the seat maybe. I don't know.

Last year tweakers in my city stole stole a bunch of copper wire from a transformer/substation and knocked out power to a few hundred thousand people.
Most of my friends are leaving their car doors unlocked now as your choice is lock it and get the window smashed or don't lock it and leave nothing inside.    One of those drug maps sites claims you can buy a 3 dollar bag of meth here. 10 years ago it was all crack, it happened pretty quick, meth taking over.

Good luck catching them the parking lot in my office has a camera and a motion sensor that activates an alarm inside and my co worker showed me a video of a meth head doing this this limbo dance under the sensor that he figured out is there. By the time she ran out with a crowbar he was gone. We are looking into a gate and maybe a pitbull, but its cruel to leave a dog out there all night. You can't guard your car 24 hours a day no matter what you do and police response time is always long enough for them to get away

I've u live in that shitty of a neighborhood dont keep anything at all in ur car and don't even lock the doors unless u want to come out to hundreds of dollars in smashed windows cuz some tweeker wanted the change in ur cup holder. :shrug: i think its important to remember crime across the board is almost at record lows but for whatever reason car break ins are way up.

I had someone browse through my vehicle while at work. The station I work at is kind of in a rough neighborhood. You know, one of those neighborhoods that people are moving in trying to gentrify. Apparently, it is something that has happened for years there. I think they go and try door handles and whichever one opens they browse through quickly and move on. They weren't interested in knives because they left my "Le Duck" dagger in my passenger seat. Must have been looking for guns or money. They didn't even go into my passenger/cargo area.

I can't wait to get the fuck out of the suburbs around here, people are moving here to this area by the hundreds, daily. Traffic is getting worse, houses and apartment complexes are popping up EVERYWHERE. If I had enough money I would be able to afford to never have to be around people again, the ultimate luxury. :sunny: I have felt that way for a while, but these times just make it even worse. I heard a sheriff's deputy at the hospital say that he is about to take a trip to Alaska to scope out a place to live in the wilderness there so he can get away from people. I guess i'm not the only one.

It seems like the world is falling apart. I'm afraid to see what's it come to when I finally make it home in a few months. It seems unemployment and crime has skyrocketed. I've been away since before George Floyd and it seems so much in the world has changed since then. With climate change and Coronavirus, I'm not so sure about the future of the world anymore. Things will never be the same
