The city needs to provide opioids to addicts in quality controlled, metered doses for safer use at sites or elsewhere.

We do incentivize violence, impurity, addiction and death with our system of prohibition. Since we obviously cannot eliminate access to drugs altogether, we should permit dealers that offer consistency medical responsibility, and neighborly behavior.

You're familiar with the supply chain for illegal narcotics, right? It is no big deal if the cannabis dispensary gets the THC % wrong. Not so for opioids with such a thin margin of error for deadly OD.
