    If other drugs have the same percentage of impact, or less (which is the case statistically, than alcohol, then what is the problem of the drinks aren’t the problem? If fentanyl users make up only 5% of the homeless, why go after them rather than the alcoholics?

      The degree of impact is different. You don’t have drunks sleeping in tents built on a pile of 500 stolen and disassembled bicycles. You DO have that with meth and fentanyl.

      The impact on the community is many hundreds of times more than alcohol.
