Cruelty is the point.
Supervised injection sites reduce overdose mortality by 67%. Supervised injection sites reduce local assault and robbery rates Supervised injection sites reduce healthcare costs
Supervised injection sites help addicts, the communities around them, and the taxpayer. Removing them is like taking your own eye out so that the people beneath you lose both eyes.
But don't you understand, if we just let all the addicts die then there will be no more addicts. Its all part of the plan to save tax dollars in the long run.i
If we just restrict social housing so people don't have a stable address to get a job, remove injection sites so people OD or get diseased, defund and remove public transit so they ca t access what resources exist, we can finally solve the homeless problem. Its simple evolution, the strong and successful survive, the weak and pathetic are eliminated.
/s, my god so much sarcasm, but its starting to feel like the opposition is thinking this.
It's starting to feel like that because that's exactly how a lot of them think. They've just been recently emboldened enough to start saying the quite part out loud.
