‘We’ve Lost Our Way’: San Francisco Rethinks Drug Paraphernalia Handouts
Daniel Lurie, the city’s new mayor, is scaling back a program that gives away clean foil, pipes and plastic straws for fentanyl consumption. Nonprofits will have to direct people toward treatment.
One of my more proud uncle moments was teaching my niece (before she could read) to crumple up the newspaper and say “this is garbage- Local paper has gone downhill” and it got such a big laugh that she did it often for a while. Glad there’s still articles like this to keep her going now that she can read.
Also it’s so fucking annoying that all of the people pearl clutching in fear of shudders drug users in urban areas! shudders - areas that they’ve often never been to.
My family were so surprised to hear how much I loved visiting Portland and San Francisco - and I didn’t even tell them about my favorite part of tourism, carrying around smokes and meeting scary drug users!, who it turns out, are the same as me - but where I had fortunate breaks (either through blind luck (I grew up poor) or privilege (I grew up whitey)), someone decided it was better for society to cast them aside (or treat them with such little compassion that it’s the preferred option). Idk it pisses me off so much.
The best conversation I’ve had in a long time (and this is about talking to a person with a mental disorder, not to imply that he also is a drug user by proxy) was with a guy I’ll call “Lonnie” who was also watching the sun rise over Lake Michigan - he told me all about having schizotypal disorders and how he comes to watch the sun rise every day to try and stay grounded and connected to his grandma - his only living relative who had recently passed - and how it helps with preventing substance abuse.
Anyway my point is, treating people with kindness goes much further than criminalization.
And people wonder why we are so disgusted by the bourgeoisie.
There was also the time five years ago, when the city helped pay for a billboard that showed smiling, glittery partygoers. “Do it with friends,” the public service message said, urging drug users to consume with others so they could treat a potential overdose.
Mr. Lurie’s rollback was the latest sign that San Francisco was moving away from the far-left ideology that had made it a target of late-night comedians and conservative politicians.
The far-left ideology of not wanting people to die. 
And she’s also disingenuous about what the billboard says. It looks like this:

Seems to be a lot more productive than just giving them a free bus ticket to get them out of sight.
far-left ideology
Thank god I didn't read the article. I knew it would be bad but I didn't know it would be that bad.

I wonder how many C-suite people at the Times would love for Trump to take care of the homeless problem permanently.
Thank god I didn't read the article.
You asshole! We’re supposed to share our pain with each other. 
yeah, get their asses, Heather.
these damn elite, fat cat opiate addicts, swimming in free plastic straws while our productive masses of brunch mimosa enjoyers are dying in hell from a lack of single use plastics, biting the lip of the glass and thrashing around.
"You know how I got these scars..."
we need a climate stalin who will force every single bruncher to carry a reusable cup with a metal straw for their mimosas
Batman The Fent Knight
Getting a fentanyl habit so I can enjoy those sweet, sweet microplastics on the taxpayer dime.
Let's pretend this is true. Does someone else smoking fent put microfent particles into the ocean and my brain? No? Then I guess it's not my fucking problem, is it?
No but you are paying 0.000006% of a cent for the plastic straw
Bit idea: guy who takes up fentanyl specifically because it makes it easier to acquire plastic straws that he will smuggle into restaurants.
They sit down for lunch.
"You got the stuff?"
The other guy opens up his backpack and shows him his haul.
"Holy mother of god! How many straws is that?"
"I been busy."
Nobody smoking fent is using a plastic straw. I have a friend that was on that shit I know.
Even fentanyl users prioritize not creating single-use plastic waste. What has the woke world come to? 
Free plastic straws for jenkem
Jenkem if you gottem
Not the taxpayers!
look at that soulless smile
Those eyes have seen some shit, too.
radio rwanda times prints another silly opinion 
Thanks for the report, Heather.
