Augusta Maine - "Progressive" Low Barrier Drug Shelter (6/9/26)
Counsel advises planning board not to make decisions based on drug or criminal activity due to "protected class".
1.) "Low Barrier Shelters" openly allow drug-use, but require the addicts to do so in parks, trails, & other public locations.
2.) Property values & businesses suffer greatly - addicts being addicts will run out of money & will steal/rob to feed addiction.
3.) Maine Democrats tied the hands of police - making it difficult for cities/towns to regulate or pass ordinances that target criminal drug users.
*Low Barrier Shelters draw countless new addicts & homeless to the areas. This "Progressive' model creates a permanent drug slave class that will perform illegal activities for their masters. This is what we saw in New York & California. They can toss a few bucks for illegal voter registration, intimidation on locals, intimidation on businesses, etc.

In May 2020, then-8-month-old Bubby – who was born with methamphetamine in his system – was left alone in a shed when the shed caught fire. Fire investigators later said this was likely due to tangled electrical wiring and jerry-rigged space heaters that were used throughout the shed. He survived, but suffered burns over 75% of his body.
Matilda Strode was born with heroin in her system. In January 2022, 6-week-old Matilda was left alone with her parents and suffocated when her parents fell asleep after using drugs, the Strode family alleges. Matilda survived, but was left quadriplegic with cerebral palsy, and is deaf, blind and mute. The state of WA will now pay both of these children and their adoptive parents over $80M. These poor kiddos. Bless them! May they receive the most love possible!!!!
@WallStreetApes It's expensive to be fat. Healthy people have to subsidize your lifestyle and the increased medical resources they require to maintain their "lifestyle". Tents are more expensive than t-shirts, gurllll
Bupe was recommended to me prior to major bone reconstruction surgery that include osteotomies of my femur and tibia. I had to fight to get a baseless "opioid use disorder" diagnosis removed from my chart from Full Life Pain and Depression Center in NH. Pain management should be individualized, but that would imply these physicians are competent and knowledgeable about actual pain conditions.
@WCVB It can't get any more ridiculous and unserious than this. I await the day when their progressive utopia experiment blows up in their face and they all get overrun with STDs and Sharia Law simultaneously. Boston sucks. I moved my healthcare out of there because of incompetence.
@VaccineWaters74@Luizmd Future generations will laugh at us, if there are future generations after this islam-feminist-marxism movement inevitably occurs.
“That is called trauma,” transgender therapist Carson Eckard told my confused daughter when she expressed fear that I might come to the campus of Rider University.
In October, it will be two years since Ilene took her life.
Trauma.
It is a word therapists use so often when gender-confused children speak about parents who question or oppose their new identity. Trauma. A word that now haunts me. And sometimes I wonder whether Carson Eckard truly understands what trauma means.
I am talking about the trauma many parents experience in this country when their children are pulled away from them by a combination of therapists, schools, peers, transgender activists, pastors, and even state involvement.
Does Carson Eckard know what it feels like when Mother’s Day comes and the daughter you love with all your heart doesn’t call to wish you a Happy Mother’s Day?
Does Carson Eckard know what it feels like when DCF shows up at your door because a transgender pastor filed a complaint against you despite never having met you and having met your daughter only once?
Does Carson Eckard know what it feels like when a university you trusted with your child’s education and safety labels you “unsafe” and bars you from its campus?
Does Carson Eckard know what it feels like when your child’s birthday arrives and you are unable to spend it with her?
Does Carson Eckard know what it feels like when police knock on your door and tell you that your child is dead—and that her body lay alone in a dorm room for four days while the university was celebrating National Coming Out Day?
Does Carson Eckard know what it feels like to stand beside your daughter’s casket and see her lying there, motionless, knowing that every hope, every dream, every plan you had for her future has come to an end?
Does Carson Eckard know what it feels like to watch that casket slowly lowered into the ground, knowing that this is the last time you will ever be physically close to your child?
That is trauma.
The sleepless nights. The unanswered messages. The fear. The helplessness. The grief. The years of wondering whether there was something more you could have done.
Yet I suspect Carson Eckard would not describe what I feel as trauma, despite being a licensed therapist.
To Carson Eckard, trauma was my daughter’s belief that something was wrong with her body and my refusal to affirm that belief.
But what would Carson Eckard call what I have lived through?
What would Carson Eckard call what countless other parents are living through right now?
If losing your child while she is still alive is not trauma, and losing her forever is not trauma, then what is?
