I was just reading The Press of Atlantic City, when I came across this... Have a gander... :rolleyes:

From The Press of AC, sunday edition, 5/15/05:

Quote:
 
    Atlantic City and Camden have recieved approval from the state to begin pilot needle-exchange programs aimed at lowering the spread of HIV and hepatitis C.
    Atlantic City Health and Human Services Director Ron Cash said the city expects to begin its program by the first weekend of July. The state Health Department sent out approval letters Friday.
    Atlantic City and Camden were the only two municipalities to apply for the program, created under an executive order signed by the Gov. James E. Mcgreevey in October 2004.


I don't know about the rest of you, but I think that this is just plain stupid! :angry: Agree? Disagree? Commentary appreciated.

Eh, I dunno enough about needle exchange programs to have an opinion. It doesn't seem like an awful idea, though. Having junkies is better than AIDS patients.

It seems like a good idea to me. I would comment further, but I really should be sleeping...

Why would anyone be as stupid as to exchange needles in the first place?

"Exchange needles" in this context means to exchange your dirty needle for a clean, sterile one, so druggies don't share their needles and their nasty diseases. Not "hey, why don't we use each other's needles".

I think it's a very good idea. Like Krech said - better to have drug addicts than drug addict AIDS patients.

Wow. This has got to be the most obvious conspiracy I've seen in my life.

Druggie: I'd like to exchange this needle, with remnants of heroin on it, for a clean one.

Packilvania initiated something like this a while back for its non-linked newly conquered territories. It failed rather fast as the druggies realized there was only an IN door, and the large pile of decaying bodies with bullet wounds to the head began to smell rather bad.
