So here is the deal. I'll talk honestly, since someone on this thread needs to.
No, I don't want apartments built at that corner, and when apartments do go up, of course I would prefer they are luxurious and increase my already inflated property values so I can continue to hemorrhage money to Bexar and Comal county to pay for services I don't use, like Pieper Ranch schools where your kids go. I don't have kids, but here we are, paying taxes anyways.
HOWEVER.
Your video is nonsense. You can't say "the environmental report is in the video" when it's a screenshot of one page that you can't read. That's not proof of anything. You also can't show a bunch of Houston news stories and say "SEE THIS IS EXACTLY WHAT WILL HAPPEN". You are talking delusional, I think we should lock you up before you go any further and do something dangerous. I've seen it before, so that's enough evidence. See how the logic doesn't hold up? Your video also just starts listing random stuff, and then it starts immediately repeating things. You have "Septic Systems" listed there multiple times. What's dangerous about septic systems? That's what my house has. That's where the poop goes! Also, and maybe this is just me, but you putting all of that RIDICULOUS AI-generated zombie crap in it completely vaporized whatever shred of credibility you were hoping for.
The truth of the matter, whether you will admit it or not, is that you don't want poor people living near you because you think their poor friends will come up here and then notice your house and rob you. You also think their poor kids will infect your children with their poorness. If you would admit that, I would actually take you serious and have a real conversation.
The fact of the matter is that Section 8 housing is meant to get lower income people to not be concentrated in low income, poverty stricken areas.
I KNOW you don't want to hear this, but some of the people who serve you food at Whataburger at 281 and Bulverde don't make a ton of money and they would still like to have a roof over their head. Despite their job, they are still humans who deserve a home. If we put cheap housing on this side of town, all of a sudden those people don't necessarily have to depend on all the expenses that come with commuting and paying the cost of living out here, so MAYBE they have a chance to accumulate a little money and get a start on something bigger.
I'm not stupid, I understand that this can and sometimes is a pipe dream. But it's not all or nothing, my friend. There are people who NEED this housing as a stepping stone to move up in this world. TRY to put your privilege away for a little while and just focus on your own stuff for a little while. You aren't going to be bothered by these people as much as you think.
