An undisclosed location in the PNW, and I have the coordinates for all of the old Atlas, Titan, Minuteman Missile sites and the old DEW Line Stations from the Aleutian Islands to Nova Scotia along the northern border of Canada.

A 5-minute cellphone video shot by a homeless man shows the streets around the PSO building (Old Central HS) littered with convulsing OD victims, so it might be a bit unfair to point the finger at Iron Gate soup kitchen.  Almost all local media falsely repeating its "synthetic marijuana" while 23 pointed out that while K2 was at one time supposed to mimic marijuana, its actually not related at all.

Yea this kind of thing is great for retail business, especially for one that has a large portion of its sales being children's toys and books.  "Mommy mommy after here can we go down the street to the candy store or to get ice cream?" "Sure Suzy and Billy, but just be careful and step over the convulsing homeless people." 
"When you only have two pennies left in the world, buy a loaf of bread with one, and a lily with the other."-Chinese proverb. "Arts a staple. Like bread or wine or a warm coat in winter. Those who think it is a luxury have only a fragment of a mind. Mans spirit grows hungry for art in the same way h

Oh yeah...just like in Bedford Falls.  This is Hollywood stuff, kids.

Not a good PR week for Iron Gate that will help sooth the concerns of those in the next neighborhood they target to build/move.

Or PSO either. If they would just convulse somewhere more, well, out of public site or suburban or something.
onward...through the fog

Its odd isn't it? Dozens of people fall to the ground convulsing, flailing, and requiring medical attention and our response is ..."not so good for downtown PR or retail bidness" instead of genuine concern for an assault perpetrated by drug dealers that may extend to all over town.

Of course when you see the same thing on a Friday night around 1am next to a string of bars in Brady? That's just the nature of adult partying. The difference being few people see the staggering drunks at that time of morning and its old news to the press unless one dies.

I think you are taking this discussion unfairly out of the context of the thread.

I wasn't there.  I didn't see any of this.  I have no idea what actually happened.

I've been in the businesses in the area.  I support the survival of the businesses in the area.

I have a tough time transferring my concerns to people having a physical reaction to a drug they took.
