New York City Mayor Bill de Blasio announced Thursday evening that the city would push a plan to open so-called safe injection sites for heroin users, part of an effort to reduce an epidemic of deadly drug overdoses across the city. The facilities, also known as overdose prevention centers, provide drug users with access to clean needles and space to inject drugs. They are overseen by staff trained to use the overdose-reversing antidote naloxone and suggest addiction treatment options for illicit drug users.

Hey, this is OK! They can sign up for welfare benefits, shoot up and then register to vote in one single location. If only we could figure out how to benefit the teacher’s union, we’d have the Daily 4.
Enabling, abetting criminal behavior.
Just for de Blasio and his family or for everyone?
Are taxpayers providing the heroin too?
I guess this is his plan to exterminate the heroin users.
Will De Blazing Idiot also provide the heroin too?
If not, why not? What if some druggie injects fentanyl laced heroin and dies?
New York could be sued!
Better to supply the needs and the drugs. And of course have a trained nurse administer the correct dosage.
I wish I could add a sarcasm tag here, but I can’t. The absolutely insane idea this idiot is posing is more than the wildest satire I could imagine.
Sure, that’ll stop ‘em.
I guess this is his plan to exterminate the heroin users.

Either eliminate them, or triple the number of uses by making the process “safer”.
One day De Blazing Idiot was walking in the park. He saw a lonely despondent man about to kill himself.
He rushed over to the man as the poor soul was pointing the business end of a shotgun into his mouth and stopped him.
“STOP! Don’t do that! That barrel is dirty. Here. Let me clean it up for you first.”
As Idiot walked home, he had this brilliant idea on how he could help junkies...
And now you know the rest of the story.
And once registered to vote, they will vote for decades after their overdose. Great way to recruit Demorat votes.
We do now! No the formal program will be announced with a Press Release and a news conference with Prince Andrew and a placard Ever Upyours...
How much would they have to pay you to take that job?
Didn’t we try this in the 1970s with ‘free’ needle exchanges?
Oh puleeze, who wouldn’t want to live there? It’ll be as nice as Amsterdam in no time.
Wasn’t that tried in places like Amsterdam and San Francisco?
How well does that work out? Who pays the freight? (dumb question I know)
Please tell me this is from The Onion.
Very little difference between Liberal ideas and Onion articles.
Even small, conservative towns are opening these sites nowadays. In my town one is opening (for needle exchange) four hours a week, so at least it doesn’t have a 24x7 presence with fulltime clientele.
