More From The Left-Coast

Not long ago, we posted here and here about Vancouver's Mayor, Sam Sullivan, wanting to give free drugs to addicts under the guise of a "harm reduction program". Well it now seems as though it's not only a long standing policy of his, it's one he's already acted on:
He also gives a brief account of his interactions with a young prostitute in the
late 1990s, to whom he gave $40 a day for three weeks for heroin, and a
41-year-old drug user for whom he bought crack one evening sometime in 2001 and
allowed the man to smoke it in his van.

Call me cynical but I have to wonder, what's the street cost for a blow-job? Right around $40.00? Anyone know? One really has to question whether or not the Mayor was trading the drug money for sex. In that vein, one also has to question whether or not the Mayor has a taste for men as well as women. Was the "crack pipe" the only "pipe" that got smoked in the Mayor's van? Do you think the Mayor smoked some "pipe" himself? Things that make you go hmmmm....

Back to the whole "free drugs for adicts" thingy: The good Mayor wants the program to go ahead. He thinks it'll be less harmful to society if the taxpayers supply the drugs. You see, the Mayor and his ilk think that once the druggies get free smack, they won't committ crimes anymore. Does the program help the druggies? They would tell you that it does.

Hey, I just had one hell of an idea. Lets give children, wards of the state of course, to the pedophiles in an even more progressive "harm reduction program"!!! Sure, that way, the pedophiles won't have to look at kiddie porn on the internet or risk themselves stalking our kids at schoolyards or playgrounds. Sounds like a great plan to me.
