Fin Fang Foom vs David "Pass the Crack Pipe" Lucca

[FinFangFoom]

I was amusing myself and looking through the updated worker bee profiles this morning on Rentboy and ran across David "Pass the Crack Pipe" Lucca aka David Latin Muscle's profile. In it, I found a curious blurb about himself - he is "PNP TOLERANT".

Months ago, I was peeved with him because he's another one of those guys in his 40's who lies about his age and grossly overstates the size of his stubby cock, however, what crossed the line with me is his blatant enabling of drug abuse.

 

Maybe he's missed all the articles about how crystal meth is ravaging the gay community - but I doubt it. And lets be honest, PNP is really code for crystal - moreso than any other drug. If David "Pass the Crack Pipe" Lucca wants to be a "crackhead" (and my money is on him being one), that's his business, however, for him to ADVERTISE that's he's perfectly fine with clients who want to destroy their lives is beyond the pale.

 

The only way for the gay community to solve the drug epidemic is for us to collectively become INTOLERANT of drug use. Gays are so scared of being called "judgmental" that they'll let their friends ruin their lives. Well, you know what? I'll happily be called that if it means someone I know will kick the habit. The people who do drugs aren't bad - the drugs are - and the sooner we call a spade a spade, the sooner we'll start to get a handle on the drug epidemic.

 

If we as a community come together and attach a stigma to drug use, it will start to wither away. Gay men are consumed with being "in" and if they find that drug use isn't considered "hot" or "fun" or even tolerated, they'll stop doing it and new guys won't START doing it.

 

I have too many friends whose lives were nearly destroyed by meth so when I see someone like David "Pass the Crack Pipe" Lucca opening encouraging it, it makes me really cranky.

 

As I said, people who use drugs aren't bad people. However, people like David "Pass the Crack Pipe" Lucca, who encourage people to destroy their lives ARE bad people and need to be told to shut the fuck up, pull the crack pipe out of their mouth and get their asses into rehab.

 

So, I encourage everyone who cares about those with a drug problem to contact David "Pass the Crack Pipe" Lucca and tell him to shut his big mid-40's mouth. His email is deepmusclehk@aol.com - that's the email from his Rentboy ad.

 

Intolerantly yours,

 

FFF

I'd like to second FFF's motion. I have a friend who claims to be a casual meth user, as if there's such a thing. He's a beautiful young man, vibrant, intelligent (as it were) and a wonderful personality...BUT...once Miss Tina gets her claws into you, it's very difficult to get them out. I have tried talking with him, reasoning, etc and it does no good. So by all means, fire away those e-mails. The man is nothing but scum.

FFF I applaud your concern you might have for this guy but coming from a family of users of the drink it's the same with any addiction, they must want to save themselves, you nor can anyone else do it for them. If the person who is using doesn't feel they have a problem then they wont get help. This guy will have to hit bottom (whatever that is for him) before he'll seek out any help. Plain and simple he is going to have to want to do this for himself and no one else.

 

Hugs,

FFF,

 

I agree with with your stance that none of us should be enablers, but why pick on David specifially when there are so many who say they are PNP tolerant?

 

Now on the other hand if you were picking on David because his ads were inaccurate or thought he was overpriced (which I might agree with), I would understand that type of complaint.

Many gays don't feel they have a problem because no one wants to be "judgmental" and TELL them that they have a problem. Instead, we sit back and do what you're suggesting...........

 

 

>This guy

>will have to hit bottom (whatever that is for him) before

>he'll seek out any help.

 

 

So as a community, we need to sit back and let everyone self-destruct before they get help?

 

To quote Dr. Phil: "How's that workin' for ya?"

 

I'll tell you how that approach is workin' - it's NOT.

 

My point is that as a community we collectively have to (dare I say it?) just say NO! We can't let circuit parties glamorize it - we can't allow gay community centers (like the one in NYC) have meetings on how to "party safely".

 

At the beginning of the AIDS crisis we identified the behavior that was dangerous, called it as such and started a campaign that said your LIFE depended upon NOT behaving a certain way.

 

We need to treat people who are doing drugs as though they're complete idiots and have nothing to do with them. If EVERYONE started doing this, then the "casual" users would stop doing it "casually" which means they would not progress to addicts and the ones who are addicts would have no one to clean up their messes and most would be forced to get their shit together.

 

However, as a community, we choose to talk about how we're concerned and worried and troubled and blah blah blahed about it but then do nothing.

 

I have a good friend whose ex is a 50yo successful attorney and a meth addict. My friend says there's nothing he can do until his ex hits rock bottom. EXCUSE ME???? You're a successful 50yo and you have a meth problem and that's NOT ROCK BOTTOM??? It can't get much more pathetic than that.

 

I'm sorry, but when you're at a point where you have a problem, that IS rock bottom - everything else is merely extra humiliation.

 

Definitively yours,

 

FFF

>I agree with with your stance that none of us should be

>many who say they are PNP tolerant?

 

His is the first/only one I saw.

 

Also, I take exception to your choice of verbs. I'm not "picking" on David "Pass the Crack Pipe" Lucca. It's not like he's got thick glasses and bucked teeth and I'm picking on his looks.

 

People like David "Pass the Crack Pipe" Lucca are BAD PEOPLE and need to be identified as such. They are assisting other people who are destroying their lives and need to be called on it.

 

If you really feel that the drug epidemic is a bad thing then you wouldn't say that people like me are "picking on" the very people who are the root of the problem.

 

Get your priorities straight.

 

Correctly yours,

 

FFF

It DOES seem like you are picking on people, probably by the tone of your writing. And, we have crossed toothpicks in the past (not seriously enough to call it swords). But, I whole-heartedly agree with, "we need to do something and not enable any others".

 

Thanks for the post and needed admonition.

 

Best regards,

KMEM

"PNP is really code for crystal - moreso than any other drug"

 

I never knew this. Seriously. I did not know "PNP" meant this.

 

Thank you for the information.

 

-N.

>I never knew this. Seriously. I did not know "PNP" meant

>this.

 

It stands for "Party 'n' Play" - which is merely another way of saying: "Come on over to my dark apartment that has all the blinds pulled down, the music is going THUMP THUMP THUMP, I'll have porn playing on the TV, we can smoke crystal and have something we'll call "sex" for hours although neither one of us can get a hardon."

 

HOT!

 

Critically yours,

 

FFF

If a HEP C+ escort advertised that his specialty is "giving the gift" (or some other such euphemism for deliberately causing someone to contract an incurable disease) there would be an outcry, however, a "to each his own" attitude is OK when drug usage is the topic. I have to agree with FFF on this one, particularly in regards to the NYC GLBT center holding seminars on "partying" safely. That is utterly ridiculous. Let's stop using the euphemism "partying" and "partiers" and, instead, use the terms "drug usage" and "drug users." Although I do not advocate forcing users to wear a scarlet "M" or "C" (or whatever) on their garments, I think that re-attaching the stigma to drugs and drug usage would make people think twice before using them.

[GloriousGodfrey]

FFF is absolutely right. Whenever you meet someone who is a friend of Tina, you need to let them know immediately that you do not approve and that they are a fucking idiot. Yes, BE JUDGEMENTAL. Have you ever seen someone with meth mouth? It's disgusting. There is no such thing as a casual meth user. There is no such thing as partying safe. If the person is a friend or a loved one, you need to be that much more judgemental. Be there for them, but DO NOT help them with their habit in any way. No loaning money, no driving them here or there. Let them know that when they are ready to straighten out their life, you will be there, but you will not help them to facilitate their habit in any way.

[jackhammer91406]

A good friend entered rehab this past week. His remarks indicated there were plenty who had passed judgment on his habit and he was in denial about whether he was addicted.

 

To see such a sweet and handsome guy derail his life is hard.

 

I wish there was a way to offer tough love without judgment, but guess it's nigh on impossible.

FFF,

 

I am sorry--I wasn't clear in my posting. Again I agree with your stance--when I wrote 'pick on David" I meant "picking" as in "selecting/choosing" him from out of the crowd of escorts that either PNP themselves or who don't, but say, "I don't mind if you do." I was not accusing you of using phrase "picking on" in it's usual pejorative sense. You answered my question when you said he was the 1st one you had come across.
