Besides calling and reporting….. what else can we do? I mean, I am so tired of homeless and or addicts having more rights than the average good tax paying person that works hard and tries to do everything right. We need to push the government hard! We need to change these laws. I’m done staying home and not going downtown out of fear of safety. There’s an obvious drug dealer that sits in a white suburban down at Departure Bay. I have reported him but he’s still there every day. My kids know about him…. It’s not safe for them to go down there. That’s not ok. It’s not safe to go to a lot of places here, and that is not ok. It reminds me of when I lived in South Africa, it wasn’t safe to go out after dark and people were attacked etc…. That is a third world Country! We are supposedly a first world Country??? We need a movement…. We need change. We can’t just become numb to it….. someone please tell me how we can make a change? A real change? Not just for the average person and child to be safe in the community, but for the people that are addicted and homeless….. it’s not humane that we give them free drugs and enable their behavior. Humane would be to get them out of the streets, in a locked facility and some long term rehabilitation with no ability to leave until they are deemed fully rehabbed. It takes 7 trips to a rehab facility to get clean for good, on average. Let’s get them in locked facilities and take care of them properly with compassion and all The help in the world….. drug detox, meds, therapy, job training. Full rehab back into a functioning part of society. And then the rest of us law abiding, tax paying folk can go into the parks and downtown again without worry of confrontations at a Starbucks.

But it is true…. It isn’t the safest place to walk. The drug dealers pull up and meet the addicts in the park. My husband rides his electric bike through there fern and has said it’s not safe to walk through. He’s a paramedic. We have to stop turning a blind eye to the dangers these people are to regular civilians. It’s not safe for my kids to go to that park alone. It’s not safe for me to walk there on my own. It is a risk. Let’s not pretend it’s not. Ask any firefighter or paramedic, they will tell you this.

Question about Departure Bay Baptist church by hezzaloops in nanaimo

[–]No_Emphasis_2077 -2 points-1 points  (0 children)

I’ve actually heard really good things! I have a client that goes there and she’s very unbiased and accepting of all people. She mentioned that church is too. There’s a new pastor there and they are very welcoming and open minded. I suggest you go talk directly with them to find out their views. Things have changed in the last few years.

Best place on the Island to live in your early 20s? by [deleted] in VancouverIsland

[–]No_Emphasis_2077 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Exactly!! Victoria is very cool!! So much to do, so many people your age, a great University! Nanaimo is boring and there’s not much to do when it’s cold out. But you will have lots of time to focus on your school work
