It's funny though, cause your pinned tweet of the quote says something different- "As long as we have people who are addicted to drugs, who are willing to destroy their own bodies and their own lives, no amount of investment on the law enforcement is going to solve this problem."

Note how it says "no amount of investment *on the law enforcement*". That's an important distinction. There's lots of other things we can do about it. More robust mental health care. Alternatives to twelve step programs. Distribution of narcan and testing strips. Education.

Also interesting - the only place I see that quote is you, and the police union. Both of whom appear to have a bias. I don't see any reference to where or when or what context the DA said this, and that seems to be a manipulation by design to encourage hysteria.

As far as I'm aware, the police have saved less people with fentanyl as local mutual aid organizations like West Oakland Punks With Lunch https://www.punkswithlunch.org/ , or Fentcheck https://fentcheck.org/ So perhaps they should be getting the funding the police currently get.

You obviously are not "aware" as evidenced by this conversation. Fire and police administer more narcan than all the non-profits combined. If dealer arrests were prosecuted, there would be many more saved.

Anyway this it literally the work I do on a regular basis, and I'm imagining you are not out there doing street medic work for the unhoused, so I just don't trust your word based on no expertise except trusting law enforcement

What is the work you do? Who pays your salary? This is not an either/or situation - solutions will come from both/and. Do you have any friends or family in law enforcement or fire? Do you live in the Tenderloin or have friends or family there? Do you live in

Literally the work you do? Huh. Everyone I interviewed in the TL said they never saw anyone but EMTs and police and other addicts use Narcan. Residents and businesses said they never see “nonprofits” at all except to hand out drug paraphernalia.
