San Fran also has tax payer funded places where you can go to clean needles and they will help you to shoot up your drugs. The idea is to stop the transmission of disease. They also hand out Narcan. I say we should let the weak kill themselves off and stop paying to coddle their poor lifestyle. Stop all of these services and tell them all tough shite.
