What behooves me is how the news and the police won’t report that this situation happen outside the envision hotel. The envision hotel is a place where actively using drug addicts reside. Many of these people live in this building go down to methadone mile commit crimes and then go back to this building and also commit crimes in the neighborhood surrounding this. Jamaica plan and Mission Hill. People who do not choose this lifestyle have to deal with this bullshit. I will say it again we have to stop cuddling people who made these life choices. And furthermore, if they rebuild the bridge to Long Island drug dealers won’t be able to have access to these people. Truly cut the bullshit we have became a society that all we do is enable fucking people while the middle-class people continue to front the bill for all these broken ass people that choose their life choices.
