    The problem is, and I’m sure you don’t need to hear this from me, is that if you give them a place to do drugs they will congregate there and without correct support and supervision (and that is never provided because money) the addicts and community end up at odds with each other.

      Then the problem is not having people to supervise nothing bad happens.

            When people are told what they can or they can’t do. They are gonna complain about it. Abd they’ll go somewhere else where they don’t tell them what to do

      Got it; Unsupervised Homeless + Safe Space = Thunderdome.

      This is a problem?

        Well no. These would be centers where people can go do drugs. They would be supervised. There would be staff monitoring them.

        Look. You have someone addicted to meth or heroin they can’t just stop… They need to keep using or they can die in the case of h and meth is extremely hard to stop cold turkey.

        Centers that allow people to use can address many issues these people have.
