You really think it’s an unorganized group of hobos terrorizing our ctrain stations? Maybe address the ultra violent gangs? You think you are not gonna take that first hit of meth with a knife to your throat? Doubt you are gonna say no to that.

Go walk down Dermot Baldwin way and see if you escape that area without a new meth addiction. Explain to me how a newly homeless person or the working poor should just cross that area to access some simple services they need to survive. It’s like crossing no man’s land. You can’t even access the di without having to pass through that. The police don’t go there to clean anything up. How do you avoid the gangs and drugs when they literally surround the social supports you need to survive?

Kidnapping and forced confinement is not the answer here. Police presence and easy safe access to social services will go a longer way than shipping them out of your sight.
