Not at all- at worst, they use the same amount of drugs beetnemesis Send a noteboard - 30/01/2014 01:58:04 AM

Can you really picture a crack addict saying "Oh man, I have all this crack, but nothing to smoke it out of! Guess I'll go become a productive member of society."

Of course not. If you want it badly enough, you can find a used syringe or whatever anywhere.

So by providing clean syringes, you are able to mitigate a host of OTHER medical and societal ills that go along with the drug use.

I amuse myself.

You've got to think in smaller steps. Your idea won't work specifically because it's too big beetnemesis - 30/01/2014 05:14:46 PM 881 Views
