hhaha late to work early to play nigga

no i don't think he got soft ,he just more mature!!

Get help to the addicts (on a more street level) better funding for city cops/law enforcement as a general/whole, fight the war on drugs ina public health standpoint (more funding their too), and fight the cartels, the distributors (wholesalers, get them...get the wolf, no need to catch the sheep), and get the kids educated, and with OPTIONS by early middle school (better funding also for the public school system) and maybe just maybe...this thing IS winnable...

[Itzsfo0]

To end...it sounds cheesy I know but there HAS to be a change...otherwise, we dont c hange, no results occur....except what has/is already happening steadily...Im glad the citys murder rate has declined from an all-time high in 1993 (367 murders that year) to below 200 in 2009...but the drug trade, overdose rate, STD % infected rate, and school system (the school-system and its failure of the inner city youth as a whole/and the whole leave no kid behind/social promotion is a gimmick in itself)

[Itzsfo0]

directly aimed at the drug trade, but there is possiblities, options we can change (as detailed in my previous texts) more funding for programs, more of a health department interest (to put it lightly), and better funding for city law enforcement - and reaching out to more people on the street, meanwhile cracking down on the murders, gunplay - and the violent aspect of the drug-crews and drug-wars (cause etahts really the only casulty, the addicts, and the bystanders caught in the middle.

opportunities..then maybe just then...we would see a drastic decrease in overdoses, a drastic increase of sobriety in citizens of these inner-city impoverished areas (no such thing as a complete drug-free city or county or country for that matter, humans will always naturally be interested in what is forbidden, and what causes the body physical pleasure (reguardless of consequences down the road IE withdraw/addiction/affecting other aspects of ones life) But there can be REFORM (just not

chance (Sorry for all the long posts) but basically in a nutshell 1) more funding for drug court 2) more clinics/rehabs/programs of all sorts aimed at the addicts 3) larger funding from state authorities to the city police departments (and organized crime / NARCO units) so they can do larger-scale raids, better equipment, better INTEL (to get the REAL high-up-players) 4) offer services not normally available on the streets to give users (cause they ARE human) despite their actions more

As mayor Kurdt Schmoke former mayor of Balt (whom I remember when he was ACTIVELY trying to urge the city and country on a more mass-level to atleast (at the very least) CONSIDER just that making 1) the war on drugs a health dept war 2) urging citizens and congress alike to by and large fund more "drug court programs" and the possiblity of "free drug zones" IE (a form of hamsterdam) but WITH help + treatment (incase those that want to reach out and try sobriety ...they could/would have the

in the health department refer to it as "the untouchable members of a certain society" IE those that are generally looked-over/over-looked (either or). Point is drugs, open-air drug markets, drug addiction (and what causes it) should be a mental health/health dept war - more funding should go into halfway homes, more medication, more needle wagons, more STD testing kits, more cheaper-intake for those who are serious about getting clean (radical as it may be) this / there has to be a change.

or get help, and ride-the rollercoaster of sobriety (that much I should know) stick-up crews (rip an runs) do their thang, which alone is a dangerous trade, and the public health side is also lacking in funds and help/support. I think the major dealers/cartels/kingpins/traff­ickers should be the ONLY major focus of the law enforcement, meanwhile the mental health/health department services (where my sister works for the city) should be the MAIN focus for the addicts on the street or as they

with gets LESS pay (smaller salary even upon starting) that makes no sense...even the cops whom I know (and respect) agree but its not about the location (one would think a city could WOULD and SHOULD make more) but they dont because 1 reason (the FUNDING) an aspect CLEARLY shown on The Wire (its an accurate depiction) drug dealers get rich...the hoppers get arrested / killed, innocent bystanders on occasion get hit by strays from a "drug war", addicts either die, or stay addicted for years...

[Itzsfo0]

CAN be a non-violent illegal trade (for what its worth) you have the law enforcement doing their job (with limited funds, my family members who have 3+ decades EACH in the BPD (balt police dept for short) say a balt county investigator starts off at 70grand (with the proper experience) AND a state trooper (who nowadays primary job duty is Traffic related situations) and a county cop GETS a higher pay, even upon starting...whereas a city cop (who deserves it..and OBVIOUSLY has alot more to deal
