Violent robberies. Breaking into buildings. Squatting in others, illegally. Not having a roof doesn't authorize you to endanger my family. Defecating on property, sex in very public places, leaving soiled condoms behind if you're lucky. Syringes if you're not. Playgrounds if you really have a government that thinks a homeless crackhead that chose to do drugs, is more of a victim than someone accidentally stabbing themselves with a diseased needle. A child, no less. This isn't existing, and politicians need to call it out. Sorry, I feel zero sympathy for the above. I feel sympathy for those who fell between social cracks, and are struggling to get out, but want to. Quote

As is standing watch, creating a distraction for the purpose of the same as driving the getaway car. Yeah, those deserve punishment. But even depriving those ones of due process by locking them up without bail isn't going to do much about the overall homeless problem, is it? Fix the problem itself. Painting the behaviour of some as a characteristic of all is shameful and untrue. Quote

herbie Posted July 25, 2024 Report Posted July 25, 2024 No Flyer he fell on the sword because some Party members pulled that one off and the usual mob insisted on making it a major scandal. Which is why I love Canada. He commits harikari over that, another Premier almost lost over a DUI and now we see a known convicted fraud and pervert win a nomination for President. BTW let's not forget either that after he did that it was such a scandal [/sarc] the NDP was re-elected. And that guy who people described as the worst Premier ever was immediately hired by BC biggest billionaire to run his advertising business.... so much for the value of partisan babble. Quote

That is what i said...BC is still electing NDP no matter what they do LOL So much talk about left and right on this forum and no one ever says anything about the NDP left in BC LOL BC has been NDP for 18 of the past 25 years (?)
