Fact is, there is no society on earth where citizens are tolerant of people shooting up, passed out on public sidewalks, or staggering through the streets off their heads. None.

Vancouver pretty much has.
What you described is the daily norm and what I see out my kitchen window almost nightly.
People have reluctantly accepted this as our new norm and the staggering deaths that come with it sadly.
The ideological idiots running things are like gun lobbyists in the US. No matter how many people are dying, they're convinced more access and supply is the always the way to go.
