Letâs go Brandon!
I believe itâs real, been on a fee other reputable news sites. The thinking is theyâd rather have them use a âcleanâ pipe to prevent further infection and injury. They were doing the heroin needle exchange north of Louisville for a while but eventually cancelled the program.
Only in America 
So our government is fine with enabling hard drug users but marijuana is still federally illegal when it has proven medical benefits. Absolutely incredible.
Itâs awful here. Oklahoma doesnât even take people to jail for methamphetamine anymore. They just write you a ticket and send you on your way. I believe Oklahoma has the highest population of privately owned prisons in the country and theyâre so overwhelmed they canât take anymore prisoners.
The drug dealers will take care of the tickets for there clients, much like we throw in a set of steps for an elderly couple.
This will change when they figure out how to line their pockets. Itâs an uphill battle when folks can grow it out in the yard for free.
People can brew their own beer and distill their own alcohol and no licensing is needed to purchase either of those. I think itâs more of an issue of the government being unwilling to admit that they were completely wrong about marijuana and that they spread misinformation on it under the guise of âthe war on drugsâ.
Even that wasnât the case during the prohibition era, which ushered in the first cartel that got itâs start smuggling moonshine across the border. Big pharma has them by the wallet these days. To admit they were wrong would quash a massive revenue stream. Itâs always been crazy times.
What bothers me the most about this crap is the people have no say in it. I doubt most right-leaning people would say âyeah letâs just enable them a bit moreâ and thereâs probably a surprising amount of left-leaning that wouldnât agree with it either. Yet, here we are, with our exemplary leadership making the best choices for us.
What the heck, only $30 myn of our taxpayer dollars. These guys in DC throw money around like itâs water.
Just like giving out condoms program
Youâre a mean grill master, but not even close to the same ball park.
Dont like it either but this way there is less potential spread of HIV, hepatitisâŚ
Now you dont need a prescription to get them.
Good Gawd Iâm lost on this one. Anyhow. Whatâs on the grill today? Ramen noodles, scrambled eggs & grilled cheese with 2 slices of Swiss around here. No prescriptions. Haha. Yâall crazy.
all states are different, and the federal government has its own agenda. In my state they have been giving junkies free rides to medical and treatment appointments for awhile now. This was under the guise of using the senior care money for something else. Needle exchange programs are common. The government pays for probably 90 percent of all treatment, which is attended numerous times by some. When their habit gets them in trouble eventually (it always does) they go to court and the doctors and nurses claim that they are bipolar. They then get SSD due to their clinical diagnosis for the rest of their life. The government pays for these shyster attorneys who do nothing but get junkies on ssd for life. They also get welfare, food stamps, heating assistance, electric assistance, subsidized or free housing.
Socialism isnât coming, itâs been here for decades. I do blame bill and hitlary for making the ssd window bigger. From a political standpoint those two were smarter than everyone else by a large margin.
Drugs will be here until we make them legal and tax them, just like alcohol and tobacco. To much money is made by the legal/judicial system to do that.
Legalizing them gives folks moral justification to use them. It means, as a society, weâre ok with them. Hold the line.
Addicts donât typically require any âmoral justificationâ for doing the only thing that makes them feel good anymore.
I personally feel that empathy and addressing the underlying mental health issues can go a long way towards fixing addiction. But that requires people to actively care about other peopleâs struggles, and itâs easier to just âhold the lineâ.
Everyone for themselves fixes nothing
