That's Not a Paradox, and I'm Not Speaking Right Now
Picture this:
Having admitted long ago that drug addiction exists, and that reducing the incidences of AIDS and hepatitis are good things, the government has decided that giving said addicts a stable and safe location to use the drugs is equal to handing out heroin for free.
No, I'm not kidding.
This is a very selective brand of stupid, one that runs in the same vein (if I may) as "Once an addict, always an addict" and "Lock up anyone I don't like".
People need stability before they can stand up, Mr. Clement. And not everyone has a good laugh looking at those who have fallen.
