    The funny thing is we have safe consumption sites for drug use all over the country. They’re called bars.

    And I’m willing to bet that the vast majority of people that are pearl clutching about safe injection sites would cry body murder if the same standard was applied to their socially accepted, well regulated and protected drug use.

      100% true. Hence they legalized drinking in public parks in all the ‘nice’ neighborhoods but not every park.

      I was literally taught the term “drugs AND alcohol” in school. Imagine if science class taught you that it was “water AND ice” and that ice is merely adjacent to water.

      I think they now teach that alcohol is also a drug, but still.
