Texas To Everyone Else: We’re Stupid
A Texas District Attorney has started prosecuting people working in a legal needle exchange program for possessing drug paraphernalia. The employees of the program swear that they’re only passing out the needles to attempt to prevent the spread of HIV/AIDS, but according to the District Attorney in this case, “These charitable motherfuckers can go fuck themselves because having needles is the same as doing heroin.”
Okay, she didn’t say exactly that, but it is clear that she believes it. How else can she possibly justify spending the people’s money pursuing prosecutions of individuals trying to prevent the spread of infectious disease? Needless to say, it is at times like this that Drug Warriors are at their most embarrassing.
“Folks, we’ve got to stop drug use, and if that means jailing people concerned with the spread of infectious disease, then we’re going to jail them. Because we’re literally desperate to prevent drug use, and if heroin users don’t have clean needles, they won’t use heroin,” said Susan Reid. She added, “I am a fucking moron.”
Again, none of that really happened. But it was pretty implicit in everything she has said, and everything she has done, up to now.
