Unfortunately, there is all too many of this garbage strewn carelessly throughout the city with no regard to children.
We have a free needle exchange that is supposed to limit the risk, but instead it just increases the risk for all the people who do not partake in this risky behaviour...children, city workers, and good hearted people who pick up the mess.
Lately there has been talk of a injection site where the users would get the free needle and inject their drugs in a public funded safe clean atmosphere with medical personal on hand...is this the answer?

I think it's related to my last post, isn't it?!
