Caught on Film: Choice Downtown Crack Hole
Photographer Ivan Pierre Aguirre sent City Desk a pair of interesting shots he grabbed at 10th and K Streets NW a couple of weeks back. Ivan, a student photojournalist, came across a hidey-hole of sorts that seems to be a favorite place for local folks to indulge in a rock or two.

Life is terrible.

This is offensive. What proof do you have that this is where people do drugs? Looks like the photog just took a picture of a homeless person’s belongings.

Don’t you see the person in the hole lighting a crack pipe? Noticing what crack does to people isn’t offensive, it’s the first step to doing something to stop it.

I see a person lighting *something*. In fact, it looks like there’s a pack of cigarettes on the ground in front of the person. If I were homeless, I might take my smokes to a hidey-hole just so other homeless people wouldn’t try to gank them.

Ah. Yes. I see a man lighting something. Looks like a cigarette. Still looks like you are ascribing criminal behavior to something that none of us our sure is criminal. Great.
