San Francisco gives drugs, alcohol to homeless addicts in hotels
2020-05-10
[FOX-NEWS] Controversy is ensuing in San Francisco after the city decided to give alcohol, marijuana, and methadone to homeless addicts in hotels during the coronavirus pandemic, according to a report.

Last Friday a man who describes himself on Twitter as “Formerly homeless addict in #recovery advocating for the #truth about homelessness and drug addiction. Faith, Hope and Love. SF Native. Tweets are my own.” tweeted to the city.

He wrote: “I just found out that homeless placed in hotels in SF are being delivered Alcohol, Weed and Methadone because they identified as an addict/alcoholic for FREE. You're supposed to be offering treatment. This is enabling and is wrong on many levels

#5  The gum comment trigger a fourth grade memory where I mischievously brought an entire box of. Beemans Gum to class and purposefully got caught. When Mrs Goldman asked me that I said yes and instead of a triumphal acquiescence she promptly took the box and call my mom after class. Hopes for class fame
dashed.

#3  It's the only way to keep them in the hotel. Otherwise they'd be back on the streets looking to score. This is the end result of the government's failure to enforce existing laws which would require these people to be incarcerated, not in hotels but in jails or camps out in the boondocks.
