Initially, it was only given by injection, but now it's common in the nasal spray. That's what's great about the nasal route, it's unintimidating and you can't fuck it up. ...I guess unless you squirt it in their ear or something. lol

And betray their pro-life stance, once again. As George Carlin said:
"They're all in favor of the unborn. They will do anything for the unborn. But once you're born, you're on your own. Pro-life conservatives are obsessed with the fetus from conception to nine months. After that, they don't want to know about you. They don't want to hear from you. No nothing. No neonatal care, no day care, no head start, no school lunch, no food stamps, no welfare, no nothing. If you're preborn, you're fine; if you're preschool, you're fucked."
Irony of ironies – in the first pic, he's wearing a shirt that says "be the lion, not the sheep", emblazoned with an oh-so-majestic lion's visage, which he oh-so-erroneously envisioned himself as. That is just too rich.
Right on. And the same tactic had been going on even earlier. Starting back in the late 1800s with the opium laws in San Francisco. Too many Asians moving in, hence the beginning of the gross "yellow peril" propaganda. The laws were specifically created to target Asians. Then in the 1930s, Reefer Madness-type propaganda was heavily targeted against Mexicans. Blacks and heroin, then crack. Jazz musicians, beatniks, hippies, on and on... always another group to "Other" because of their race or their eschewing of social mores, so pave a legal framework to come down on them from. Much of drug law history was born out of a desire to eliminate an undesireable group.
Awesome! Great info. I never doubted you guys would have a better program then we do in the states. Cheers.
I agree. Rubbed me so wrong that a genie just shot out of a bottle next to me.
This is a good step forward for accessibility, but unfortunately, the $50 price tag will still put it out of the hands of many who need it. It should be handed out, for free, to anybody who wants it. There's zero downsides. It cannot be misused, diverted, or abused. It has no other uses. It has no effect on someone not ODing. It cannot benefit anyone in any possible way... unless they are actually dying right now. If we were serious about saving lives, we would be gladly giving it out. Hell, put it in free vending machines on the street. It would be the ultimate pro-life move. But, of course, in a capitalist hellscape, profit motive is of utmost importance. How about drug cos. making billions off opiods foot the bill? Thankfully, there are many great harm reduction organizations that do hand it out free, but the easier to get, the less people die. I recommend anyone pick up some, if you can find it for free, even if you don't think you'd need it. Home/work/car, you never know what might happen in your vicinity. It's like the modern Heimlich Maneuver. Ok... that's my PSA for the day.
