I don't think Swiss "needle parks" are anything to emulate.

They're not referring to Needle Park, which Switzerland quickly abandoned; it's obvious that legalizing in a single small area will concentrate sale and use in that small area, with all the predictable harms.

It is also obvious that legalizing in a HUGE area will scatter harms, but never fear, with legal drugs, there is so much harm to go around that it will expand to fit the need every time.
