Harm Reduction is more than Needle Exchange

Harm Reduction is much more than needle exchange.Harm Reduction is a Method in which drugs and the subsequent drug deals that happen are made less dangerous.

The best method for society to follow would be to look at the entire fiasco realistically.The drug use will happen and the way they are sold and used effects others. Street Education that can build a rapport when society is not being arrested for petty drug use.

The direct sales of anything other than cannabis will cause sides to be drawn even further and wider and risks will be taken.Otherwise the status quo will rule forever.Anyone that thinks that the drug war is winnable and popular is as ignorant as a stump.The prohibition of any substance always causes a subsequent black market and socioeconomic issues galore.
The Over the counter sales of cannabis and having a doctor available for other drug scripts if really warranted would take so much drug sales off the streets that it would be noticeable.
This would be something Positive that is noticed instead of the usual Negative consequences.There is entirely too many sales of PILLS in the Tenderloin and some on sixth street too.This can be changed with Pain clinic appointments and SCRIPTS to the generally older clients.The Narcotic Pill Nazis have created too many Junkies and a SHITLOAD OF STREET DEALS.

Some of These Drug Deals did not exist until the pharmacies were raided by the feds in 1962 in San Francisco, Harry Anslinger had his final victory.

I personally know that Pain pills can be managed.

The FOOLS who get the OCs from the VA and sell them will eventually get caught and cut off forever.
The Insanity around Pills can change with realistic approaches.

The Street Dealing as America knows it today was not an issue until about the mid 60s until present day.It seems as though every substance that was available was taken away.The Drug Nazis went after drugs as though they were going to rid society of something that they have done for millenniums.Drugs only become an issue when prohibition is introduced.

The Prisons are too full and the consequences of Parolees on society can be reduced.With realistic approaches.The DRUG WAR needs to end.

The Only winners are the Drug Cartels,Gangs and prison guard unions.

There has been opium smokers for millenniums and then some idiot had to further process the opium into heroin and then the real issues started.
From the Time the Dutch East Indian Trading Company made Opium Runs for China.

They Addicted China and then China Revolted.

The Junkies are an age Old Issue that need not be as HUGE.

Amsterdam has implemented Harm Reduction for Years now and crime did go down.


The Future will see Cannabis Clinics that Help Junkies.Cannabis replacing Methadone and Reducing the Bad Effects of HARD DRUGS.

It will be a great day when the workers on Stevenson quit Finding Old Syringes.Then stop finding Dealers.
Harm Reduction Takes realistic Approaches.
Yes Harm Reduction is much more than Needle Exchange.
Its a way of not letting the OBVIOUS EFFECTS of Drug Abuse get out of Hand and Start Effecting other citizens.It's keeping the Harm to the Abusers Own Self.

It's taking Cannabis sales away from Street Thugs and having a Funding source for MORE HARM REDUCTION.
The Policy needs to be 501C3 all the way!
No Greedy Moves in Harm Reduction!
WE Learned from prop 215 that the Greed Exists.
Disguised as a GOOD THING for the City.
HEY San Francisco!
Let's Implement Ethical Harm Reduction soon.
Then The Guardian Angels will feel they actually can be Part of One Huge Harm Reduction Effort.Not just someone walking around with no help in an Urban War zone that can't change until realistic harm reduction methods are implemented.
The Guardian Angels are Harm Reduction in Action!
They need a change in status quo.

Harm Reduction is having a GIANT get together for all residents to network and have Public Speakers from the neighborhood.
Having BBQs and Picnics that raise funds for Harm Reduction and Raise awareness to an Issue and a subject that can't be ignored.
Harm reduction is building trust.
Harm Reduction is an Ongoing Effort.
HARM REDUCTION HAS JUST BEGUN.
PEACE

The Sixth Street Corridor From Hell.

AMERICA WILL NEVER TACKLE THE DRUG SUPPLY AND DEMAND PROBLEM WITHOUT DRASTIC CHANGE IN HARM REDUCTION POLICY.THE CANNABIS SUPPLY NEEDS TO BE CUT OFF BY COMPETING WITH THE CARTELS.THEN THE SUBSTANCES BEING SMUGGLED WILL NOT INCLUDE CANNABIS.THE SUPPLY AND DEMAND CYCLE WILL BE INTERRUPTED FINALLY.

There was a Time When the Sixth Street Corridor in San Francisco was a Mom and Pop type Business zone with the Kind of Businesses that made America Great.This was before BART,The Crack epidemic,The Real Estate Bubble and The Wall Street Greed Epidemic.The Sixth Street Corridor Enjoyed the Foot Traffic from the Theater District.The area was a Vibrant Middle Class District.The SRO Hotels in those Days were Clean and Safe.

The Sixth Street Corridor has seen Too Much BLIGHT after the Crack and Amphetamines Epidemic took over.The Chair and Couch Building OWNED BY SOME CERTAIN PATELS is AN EYESORE and THEY CONTINUE to DISRESPECT San Francisco.

Multiple years of drug use has it's Obvious Effects.Some of these Citizens are walking Skeletons and Dependent on the System.There can be no Change without an Interruption in the supply.

The Tweaks are a scandalous Breed.The Cranksters and Crackheads make a Myriad of Drug Users that Sixth street has become.

There are However brave Urban Heroes on The Sixth Street Corridor.The Passion Cafe is a Full Service French Restaurant on Sixth Street.They Start as a Coffee Pit Stop in the Morning offering tasty Pastry.Then they Morph into a Full Service French Restaurant form Lunch to Closing.Imagine Beef Bourguingnon and Creme Brulee on Sixth Street.They are Paving the way for Other Brave Pioneers.Reclaiming Sixth Street a Little at a Time.

The Business as Usual Routine will be Broken.The BLATANT DRUG DEALS need to STOP.San Fransisco will never be able to Reclaim the streets without a Proactive approach.That is what Over the Counter Cannabis sales in a 501C3 Harm Reduction center is a Proactive approach that will take the Cannabis sales away from the Drug Thugs and Give Needed Revenue to Charity.Will the Drug Cartels do that? Hell No!

The Day will come when the street sales of substances will not include cannabis. California's Tax and Regulate Tax Act of 2010 will pave the way for Harm Reduction Centers.VOTE YES on Taxing Cannabis.Vote YES on Ending the Insanity of Jailing Cannabis Growers and Ending the Street sales of Cannabis.
