Most simple folk think repealing M110 will fix the drug problem, we all know it won't. I'm on board with safe injection sites. I'm not onboard with people smoking fentanyl or meth indoors. There needs to be treatment, but that's not going to happen fast in any way shape or form. We need providers and that costs a lot of money and takes time to train, and it's not like there's any huge campaign to get people to go into that line of work, considering the pay is shit. But, we need an army of them, literally.
famously drug-less environments: jails
Yeah, its really silly. Decriminalizing it didnt make it more prevalent. People would still be doing drugs, with the only difference is that theyll be getting arrested and be back out by the end of the night.
