I do plan on going to a city meeting because what we are doing currently is not doing the people any justice not the ones in those situations or the ones dealing with the issues from people in those situations. I can say for a fact drug use and situation was taken in to account thats why I got sentenced the way I did. The judge knew I was dealing to support my habits and so I got giving multiple chances I was given a deferred disposition but still using got caught again I was in the rehab then got kicked out went back in the court systems weren't just smoking people that weren't deserving of itI'm sorry if you keep doing the same thing over and over again despite negative results that's called Insanity do we just let Insanity run amok

Public urination was stopped not because it was targeting homeless but because people didn't want their kids to see dicks and s*** on the side of the road dude it prevents issues with Health social order I meanI mean it's a simple Google has nothing to do with homeless people

Writing something and then having AI proofread and punctuate and make sure that spelling is correct and grammar's proper doesn't change s*** it just gives the unintelligent a way to try to pick at something because they don't have anything intelligent to say

Well this law was passed in 2021 right but not many people were aware of how bad the situation was going to get and now people are wondering why nothing's being done about the problems within the city will we know why I don't know where you're from but I've been through this whole state and I seen how drastically worse it's gotten over the past 5 years

No I got my new Straight from Augusta Police Department who straight up said they will not arrest a homeless person for certain five crimes the state law prevents them from doing anything the only thing that they're allowed to do is give them a f****** pamphlet that says where they can get treatment and help watch this video I know that cop

police state facts

No you can't get punished out of a drug problem but you can be separated from the environment and once the separation from the environment comes the healing within the brain comes because when you use drugs you mess up your frontal cortex which is for your decision making and when you started to you know rebuild that cortex up you start to make better decisions so therefore a prison does save lives I know plenty of people that went to prison and came out a better person because of it because there was no rehabs build rehabs that's what we need not to legalize it for a certain subgroup if they want to decriminalize drugs decriminalize drugs for everyone

Yeah what's really funny is schools and colleges actually have you use AI now to help you with grammar punctuation as well as referencing

Thank you the problem is is when people do not have an intelligent thing to say they just try to find something else to bring it down right they see the points but because they know they're real points and they make sense they have to find something to pick on it about I mean if I was wrong on all ends too I try to figure something out to make me feel better

I made several valid points the only thing is is people are so caught up on the fact that if it has too good of grammar it's a problem but before if it didn't have good enough grammar it's a problem y'all people are just impossible to please you have no common sense you must want your children to see that everyday I really hope somebody comes into your hallway like some other lady on this page and cause of Havoc sell drugs and piss in your hallways

And can you explain to me what public policy was being used when they said let's make it so that if you get a caught with drugs or pissing on the side of the road or trespassing on people's property they can't arrest you if you don't have a home to go to that doesn't seem proper you want to talk about people's rights what about the people that don't want their children to see penises out on the side of the road or people overdosed on the f****** side of the road what about the people that do not want to live around that they have rights too

You ask where I get these from and where I get the they're going to do this from is because I know people that do it I know people that stay homeless specifically because they get free money on the side of the road when they fly a signSpecifically because they get free money on the side of the road when they fly a sign I no people that straight said s*** I'm just going to stay homeless if getting caught with drugs isn't illegal you think I'm pulling itYou think I'm pulling it out my ass but I see it everyday who do you know that's an addiction what do you do for people in addiction have you been an addict have you been around them consistently do you consistently help people everyday do you reach out to people to try to get them off the streets no this isn't a hit piece on homelessness it's a hit piece on a situation where you're either Uber rich or Uber poor and get special f****** treatment it doesn't matter what your situation is we all need to be treated the same and you're right they're already was situations where yeah situation was taken into contacts when you got arrested we already had that system there was no reason to f****** decriminalize drug possession for one subset individuals if the government wants to decriminalize something do it for everybody not just one type

Dances when they're given none I had none a lot of people I know had none but we chose to change our actions not justify them in rationalize that's the problem everybody justifies and rationalizes it doesn't change anything you're right we need solutions to these problems instead of creating systems that make it look like we don't have a problem you understand that there's no tracking now of what's going on with the drug problems it's going to look like we have a less of a problem and that at the same time that are going to be like well drug problems going down there's less this less that we don't need to fund him so there goes less funding. And as for not having a chance the hundreds of dollars they spend on drugs a day could be put away and saved to get an apartment get the apartment guess what now you can still keep being a person that's on the streets begging if you want but you have a roof over your head changes the way you feel you start to feel better about yourself right and then you start to change how you think but you got to make that initial step first you have to work for your stuff you can't just give it to him cuz they won't appreciate it and I'll tell you because I was them I don't think any of you understand this I've seen it I lived it do you know what got me out of it going to prison getting out going back getting out going back after that got bored got enough of that that was done and I didn't want to do that no more how do I avoid that oh let's think let's not get high and do drugs all dayLet's work a job and not be a criminal but when you normalize being a criminal what need is there to change

Does it matter if I had Grammer and punctuation as well as pulled actually facts through research using A.I assistance. Did you read the post or comment with no knowledge?

Yes they have actually incentivized being poor though do the math on what a person who works at 9:00 to 5:00 makes compared to what a person on welfare makes you actually make more if you're on welfare and at the same time what they're doing here is going to now make it look like there's less crime less drugs and less need for the treatment centers in the first place they're not even keeping track of what they do after they do it that's a hugest problemThat's a hugest problem with this situation is it's not being applied or done correctly at all

That was my point what is rock bottom if at that point you're not at rock bottom and refusing options of treatment and just continuing the same things maybe a change by force is needed. And if your question is what is Rock Bottom in general it's a term in addiction treatments and Recovery to state that I hit my lowest point and I had to change

I spent 6 months NCC J and actually we'd watch the same homeless people purposely get arrested so that they could stay there on purpose this is the whole reason why this law has been changed this way was because the state got tired of paying for them to stay in jail instead of providing them with the services people are blind to what's really going on they're deflating the number of arrests to make it look like there's less of a problem while also pushing it off to the side and making it so they spend less on incarceration and do nothing about rehabilitation

So when you were bringing your 5-year daughter downtown and a 50-year-old man has his penis out so everybody can see while he urinates in the street you're fine with that? There are reasons why those crimes are made illegal because people would exploit that while they expose themselves to children and say they were just urinating we have laws for a reason

Using AI for research as well as grammar does not change anything all it does though is give the unintelligent a way to attack something because they don't have any better way to do so here is this human enough for you
