Safe injection sites are the best way to reduce the stigma associated with drug use. These facilities provide a safe and hygienic environment for drug users to inject their substances under the supervision of trained medical staff. By creating a non-judgmental space, safe injection sites can help reduce the social exclusion and discrimination associated with addiction. Furthermore, by promoting hygiene and harm reduction strategies, these facilities can also help prevent the spread of bloodborne diseases like HIV and Hepatitis C. Overall, safe injection sites are an important step towards reducing the stigma associated with drug use and promoting public health.

We should also have safe rape facilities for serial rapists. Safe theft stores for kleptomaniacs and shop lifters. Safe day care centers for pedophiles. Safe roadways and routes for alcoholics and drunk drivers.

@AtticEscapee 1 Drug addiction is a disease and not only attributed to a bad choice which is a common misconception and simplification people like you love to make
