Take the $20 and you have meth for a day. Take the car and you have meth for a month plus one day.
From my experience it isn’t the car they’re after, usually they’re looking for any dumb thing inside that can help them with their fix.
This is the part about harm reduction that I wish more people understood. Either you do it the right way - set up a clinic - or pay for it later in terms of security systems/service, insurance rates, theft, property damage, and the occasional violent encounter (e.g. during theft). This guy did the math and realized that a $20 bill is WAY cheaper than the alternative(s).
My grandma always had some candy in her purse for the heroin addicts on her block.
If you’re not just making a joke, that’s very kind. That’s a high level of empathy right there.
She was the best. I miss her dearly.
Stabbed to death by a heroin addict. Rip gam-gam 😢
