You could witness the defunders' plea for attention in the wee hours of the morning Thursday at Washington Square Park.
The effect was to foreground the misery of the numerous addicts who call the park and nearby streets home: a world bathed in crack smoke, drenched in urine, murmuring with the fragmentary, delusional self-talk of lost souls.
My guide to this other Washington Square world - the world of the addicts - was Damon.
"Nando" told us the confrontation between the park people and the surrounding community trace back to rumors of mass "d-k-sucking," though before he could finish his report, Damon chimed in to insist that "There's been no d-k-sucking, motherf-ka!".
A Q-tip-thin young woman in platform Doc Martens was asked to kiss Damon's hand; she obliged instantly, affectionately smooching his fingers.
After we grabbed the beers and cigarettes - this involved a minor altercation, entirely instigated by Damon, with the South-Asian 7-Eleven clerks - my guide was on the hunt for crack and a pipe.
After Damon smoked his second little crystal, we started back for the park.
It's becoming increasingly difficult to discern fact from fiction, and unfortunately the media has a strong bias. They spin stories to make conservatives look bad and will go to great lengths to avoid reporting on the good that comes from conservative policies. There are a few shining lights in the media landscape-brave conservative outlets that report the truth and offer a different perspective. We must support conservative outlets like this one and ensure that our voices are heard.
