Addicted to wokery, no matter the cost: California Democrats pass bill to allow MORE open-air drug sites – despite disastrous first attempt in San Francisco that is now set to close
Addicted to wokery, no matter the cost: California Democrats pass bill to allow MORE open-air drug sites – despite disastrous first attempt in San Francisco that is now set to close
- California Democrats signed the bill, known as SB 57 yesterday – it is now with Gov. Gavin Newsom’s office
- The bill would allow for state-run, taxpayer-funded drug-taking sites to pop up in Oakland, L.A. and San Fran
- Addicts could bring their own drugs and use clean, state-provided needles and other paraphernalia
- California Republicans said it’s ‘crazy’ to ‘get people high as a kite and then turn them loose afterwards’
- ‘Fueling the drug epidemic with drug dens and needle supplies is like pouring gasoline on a forest fire,’ they said in a letter to Newsom’s office
- That site, the Tenderloin Linkage Center, is set to close later this year after a disastrous pilot year
- The site only reached 1 in every 1,000 addicts in the city and caused lines of people shooting up outside
