yes it would save lives in SF today. no it would not solve the problem. yes it is the right thing to do today given 2/day are being killed. the balance of harm from jail changed with fentanyl - just look at the numbers!
I never said imprison addicts - I said dealers. Make fentanyl harder to get. The dealers are literally killing lots of people almost 4X #COVID19 in SF it is a huge number! So how many more killings until you support trying to reduce access? Everyday we wait two die

Yeah but again...we’ve been pouring drug dealers into prisons for the past 40 years with no success. What you’re describing has proven to simply not work. There’s always going to be someone to fill the market vacuum.
