Noticed this today @News12CT seems very unprofessional for him to block me over a recording he actively suppressed associated with a meeting I recorded concerning that email. You have s biased editor who makes his bias well known, pretty sure blocking candidates won’t help tho https://t.co/ryFIWb5RT8

@richsignorelli @atrupar charge everyone accordingly despite the face they’ll only arrest low level distributors who themselves are SUD patients. Overdose prevention sites is what works, policy ideas like this are worse than repeating the Crack War and mass incarceration, they’ll be mass casualties now

@Beach7Jason @LaurenSemrau @elonmusk MAT as Canada is trying in many ways. Likewise I believe people would utilize overdose prevention sites. I want such services and facilities to avoid body body brokering, cartel involvement, and anyone with profit motives. Such motives undermine the services in harm reduction tbh

@votemerlen
@Beach7Jason @LaurenSemrau @elonmusk free safe supply anyway when they need the revenue from the drugs? Harm reduction volunteers don’t necessarily usually work for expensive treatment families making money, we only lose money because we exist to provide FREE services. No one can provide free services sustainably,

@votemerlen
@Beach7Jason @elonmusk Sackler family and Purdue Pharma were entitled to secretly run w safe supply program alongside the worst cartels in the country. Pain patients should not endorse Sackler behavior when their fake pain orgs caused your access problem directly in this scam. You were hurt by them too

@BryanFields24 @Peter_Grinspoon I know many people who use marijuana very effectively to avoid other substances, I think it had real merits. Would love to see more states make it part of their toolkits for those struggling from SUD. So often patients that prefer marijuana as MAT risk jail time unnecessarily too

@Lionyeti @ChrisMatteiCT @RudyGiuliani @USAttorneys when they start mentioning bankruptcy as a mechanism, they intend to weaponize such a mechanism to the furthest extents of the law like they did in other cases like I’m citing here. They have a track recording in that crew of hurting victims multiple times with such strategies
