So apparently the let’s defund the police and decriminalize all drugs thing isn’t going the way they thought. At least when it comes to average citizens.
Now you all know if you have followed me for any length of time on Hive that I am a van lifer living the digital nomad life in the Pacific Northwest. Well I am pretty centered around the Eugene area because of my kids and my sister and her family.
Let’s say that I used to really like this town. Yeah it was weird but I never felt unsafe until the last year. Shit is getting out of control.
Today at my sister’s house, a junkie tried to set up camp literally in her front lawn, but on the other side of the sidewalk, which is technically city property. When she tried to get him to leave he was yelling and cussing at her. She called the police but they basically said they couldn’t get anyone there. So the next call was to me. Her husband is working out of town, which he isn’t much of a fighter anyway, lol. But we won’t go there, lol, he is from Pasadena, California so you can’t expect him to be to tough, lol.
Anyway, here comes the Dude, in full on Walter mode! I came out, with my side arm on my hip and my Billy club in my hand and very aggressively told him he had to go. “Fuck you pig!” Was what I got from him, then I pulled my arm back and said, “bitch, I am not the fucking police so I don’t have to play by any rules!” And slammed my baton into his tent. He looked like he basically crapped himself and started getting his shit together. I stood by while he was cussing at me and I just told him to keep packing up camp and get the hell out of the neighborhood.
An hour later the police finally showed up, this was 2 hours after the call. I basically gave them the business about doing their job for them and they were basically like thanks, lol.
They told us there is basically a checklist of urgency… Also the Eugene Police runs on encrypted scanners so the public doesn’t know what’s going on, shady as hell if you ask me. So basically why do we pay taxes? If I am the next number that my sister calls after the police turn her away, then why the fuck do I pay taxes? They should be paying me! Hell, maybe I should start a private security company and get the neighbors to pay me to patrol the neighborhood, 😂.
So this is to say that we all need to stay aware of what times we are living in and learn to protect yourself, in one way or another. Living the van life has shown me the world from ground level, and let me tell you, it’s not all the time pretty. But at the same time, it’s not all the time bad either. You just have to stay situationally aware and prepared for anything.
Anyway, not to bring down the mood, but it’s been an interesting day, lol. So stay vigilant, and don’t be scared to go outside and enjoy life, just know how to handle yourself of a situation happened to unfold.
Until next time friends, stay safe and remember…
Be Cool, Be Real, and always Abide!
