do you have a plan for how you're going to differentiate carlos the guy pushing crack because that's the only way he can afford life-saving medication for his grandma from don the douchebag who's loan sharking the kids who need money to survive because their parents got snatched up by the una for breathing the wrong way on social media? both of those exist here, by the way.
nobody's "trying to make bank" when they're broke. they're trying to survive. you can argue all you want that you're trying to make neighborhoods safer, but the drug pushers don't get peddlers to walk their stuff if the peddlers can afford rent and groceries and keep the heat on. things get better when people have help.
you're not the only former vigilante walking the block here. your way or the highway won't cut it for most of us.
