Dear Editor,

I was taken aback by the NIMBY opinion that included criticism of anyone suggesting that illegal drug use should be a barrier to assisted housing access.

Respectfully, advocacy of social welfare is easiest to those who ascribe to the ideal of a "collective".

I invite the author to consult with law enforcement about any larger assisted housing complex.

The majority of residents are victimized by crime within the complex. NIMBY? No…concerned taxpayers!
