Not the Bee. Yes, this is real.

quote:

In a fresh move to enable addiction, city Health Commissioner Ashwin Vasan just unveiled a vending machine that dispenses free Narcan and drug-test strips — along with “safe-smoking” pipes, condoms, tampons, nicotine gum, first-aid kits and even lip balm.

Start the countdown to the day free syringes get added.

It's free. They don't think junkies will just clean it out and resell the shite?

Take free narcan, sell it, profit.

I have empathy for addicts but I think we have gone way, way too far in the other direction. The taxpayers are literally funding their lifestyle.

Do we have any idea if they gave out free drugs in Rome towards the end of that empire?

this will help nobody except the person whose family/friend got the contract for these supplies and marking them 1000% to “stock” the inventory in the machines

I’m sure the vending machine contract was nice, lucrative and filled with kickbacks as well

Imagine running to one of these machines because a friend OD’d and you need Narcan. You select it and the little loop things spin but the Narcan gets caught without falling. I’d be like “So unfair! The next junkie gets 2 for 1!”

If they brought back Seinfeld it would be about this instead of the Twix

Yeah no way this is a real person. It looks like he’s in a costume and his wife made him an NYC Health poster.

Maybe they can put them next to the anti-theft community support kiosks they are using instead of arresting people for shoplifting?

Eliminate the Narcan. Let choices determine natural consequences.

When destruction is their objective, it all makes sense.
