GIVE INJECTION SITES A CHANCE TO SUCCEED
Safe-injection sites reduce the need for heroin addicts to commit
crimes in order to feed their habit. They also allow health
professionals to keep tabs on people in danger in the addicted
community who would otherwise have nobody looking out for their safety.
The efforts of Vancouver's safe injection site are blown out of
proportion -- it is just one small effort that might grow into a
success if the self-righteous morality police would just give it room
to breathe. Please!
