“I Chose to be a Meth Head”
Kevin Kalb is an independent filmmaker known for his “Dregs of the City” YouTube documentaries.
He’s in Seattle collaborating with Discovery Institute Media to spotlight the region’s homeless drug crisis.
He managed to get an interview with Mayor Katie Wilson and questioned her about the “service resistant” addicts who are causing the most problems on the streets.
Wilson gave him spin about city “models” that get the “vast majority” of people off the streets. Not true at all. In fact it’s the opposite.
Even the drug addicts laid out reasons why they don’t want city shelters like tiny houses.
One woman summed it up best: “I don’t want to lay in my bed and you know wake up to a roach trying to spoon me.”
