Jamming someone up for having drugs on them while otherwise not doing anything is bull####.

Arresting someone blitzed out of their mind on fentanyl at 10am on a Wednesday as they stand in front of a daycare playground on 11th Ave is not.

It should be standard operating procedure.

Heroin is a demon drug, and people can’t be made to get clean. They have to decide to do it for themselves, and Hitting rock bottom is important.

For many, getting arrested is that rock bottom.

But we just don’t do that anymore because… Why?

Leaving people to their own devices until they die is not compassion. It’s the opposite.

This haiku is terrible
