SHOW US THE SUCCESS STORIES FROM INSITE

With all the talk lately about the pros and cons of Insite, we are
hearing very little from the people who are supposedly being helped by
this organization. If Insite's objective is harm reduction and
ultimately to get these people free from drugs, let's get some success
stories from those who benefited from Insite and are now drug-free.
The facility has been in operation for quite a few years now, so
surely there must be some ex-drug addicts out there willing to give
kudos.

Sadly, though, I doubt there are. The few times newspapers publish
opinions from actual recovered addicts, they all say the same thing:
The only thing that got them clean was their own desire to quit and
the aid they got from rehab. Enabling drug abuse at Insite does
nothing to assist them in getting clean. It just keeps them alive
another day, only until their next fix.
