The weather is least likely to kill you but the fentanyl is most likely to kill you — and @chesaboudin says “If people want to kill themselves with drugs there’s nothing we can do about it.”https://twitter.com/kittystryker/status/1410288731769040905 …

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.

That would be great. But it’s not happening. When’s the last time you visited the TL?

Last Friday, actually! I was there for a party, a friend lives there. Shared a smoke with a homeless dude. Gave out some narcan. When was the last time you visited?

Chesa may be right about one thing: arresting and prosecuting people suffering from addiction is cruel and pointless, but simply refusing to pursue dealers who are profiting from tat misery is absolutely unjust. Law enforcement can have an effective role here.

I think it's really important to acknowledge that the way local organized crime runs drugs is giving packets to addicts to distribute on their behalf, so they keep their hands somewhat clean and are less likely to get nabbed.
