  1. Recovering heroin addict. I know it's controversial and to people who do not know, it makes no sense, but harm reduction facilities save lives. I'd take it a step further and do for people what they're doing in Vancouver where they have injection sites where they observe you with Narcan to make sure your ass doesn't fall asleep and die. It's no joke. Beyond that, I live in a state where they only just recently started a basic needle exchange program. There were times I or people I knew couldn't get needles, and because of that we had to resort to reusing needles and in some cases (and I hate this) share them after bleaching them out. That is extremely dangerous. Not just for the user themselves, but in theory to everyone else too. That's how you get HIV/AIDS and Hepatitis C, MRSA, staph infections etc. Stuff that could affect other people. All because they won't take dirty needles out of circulation and provide fresh ones? The problem exists, people are going to use drugs with or without these resources, at this point it's a matter of damage control aka HARM REDUCTION.
