I would love to adopt this woman and have her and her husband over for dinner on a regular basis. I’d sew up her clothes. She’s in Colorado – but I still honor her words and her courage.

As ya’ll know, I live in one of “those” cities. Rampant crime, third world style roads (which caused our recent necessary axle repair), and filth left behind by fentanyl and the like junkies. This is where I live – this is where I won’t take my child to anymore. Oh – and we have people now feeding ’em – every. g.d. day – which is bringing in more of them because hey – why change your life when you have others stepping in giving you more free stuff. I understand their desire to help – but this is not the answer. These are just an example of pictures.
our once beautiful downtown riverfront:
We see people all over parked like this. It’s sad and maddening at the same time. Most days you go out – the chances are good you’ll see one of these “once human who have become lost due to drugs” walking around without shirts, shoeless, sometimes no pants, often yelling at no one in particular. If it’s an extra “special” day – you’ll have to walk around their excrement left on the sidewalk.
There is literally a small city next to the local Home Depot. The residents were stealing so often, HD changed some policies and layouts. Many items once available for all to view and purchase are behind lock and key. To cut back on the shopping cart theft, the local Kroger store laid out the policy that says you cannot take shopping carts out of the store. Recently a family run business had their front window smashed out – tip jar was stolen. Smash and grab. Read a story a few weeks back some workers were eating lunch at a local park – in their truck in the common parking lot. This park is another place we don’t venture to as the homeless have literally taken it over and some will get quite hostile to “outsiders” as you will see. Two homeless men approached the worker’s vehicle, threatening them with physical injury unless they left. This was “their” territory. Words were exchanged – one of the homeless men began throwing water bottles at their truck and the other approached with I believe a golf club or something similar – and began hitting their truck. So the workers left – called the police. Pretty sure nothing was done about it – at the most they cite, arrest now and then and release where they return and disappear and ignore court orders.
This – and other reasons – is why I am so. ready. to. move. Done being a f’ing prisoner in my own city because of evil agenda’s that were allowed to flourish, area residents still too blinded to it saying how livable and beautiful this city is. Livable when the starting cost for a house is almost half a million. Watch out for that chunk of loose road and potholes as you drive your Tesla into the driveway of that new home you be eyeing. And enjoy the obscene taxes that do nothing to help change the mess that is this city.
Yeah – I am in hell. At least I’m in the “sweet spot” and believe you me when I say every day I am at least grateful for that.
