Biden Admin To Fund Crack Pipe Distribution To Advance ‘Racial Equity’

Any of you still paying taxes need your heads examined.

This is why I stopped.

I don't need government "services" and I sure as hell will not (and never will) fund drug abuse paraphernalia.

I won't pay to kill my fellow citizens. Funny how there are still some who will still doubt the government's involvement in the introduction of certain drugs in specific communities. This makes it crystal clear.

The deMocrat party voted 100% ‘AGAINST’ abolishing slavery - fact
The KKK was a dEmocrat party creation and the confederate army were democrats -fact

Joe biDen campaigned STRONGLY against allowing black people to go to schools with whites - fact

He also was a close dear friend of dEmocrat senator and KKK leader Senator Byrd

ALL of this is common knowledge and was certainly known by EVERY leftist on earth before the last election

If the democrat party wasn’t introducing racist policies and promoting division, their supporters would stop voting for them

Hillary Clinton cited Robert Byrd as her mentor. Which explains a lot.

I've seen different sources report Byrd's klan title as "Exalted Cyclops" and "Grand Kleagle", but nobody denies he was one of their leaders.

I understand your point, although I do not fully agree with you. The first question I would have is whether you know if the person are describing had some therapy? A lot of addicts have severe mental health issues, either caused by addition or issues, which caused them to become addicts. Without addressing these issues, it is very hard for the addict to quit, especially when considering that they are constantly under the influence/withdrawal and are unable to think clearly. Just giving them money does not fix the issue, therapy and proper medications would increse the odds significantly, Of course there are bad apples, people, who simply do not want to quit, but believe me, most of the addicts want to quit, but are simply unable without external help.

I do not fully agree with you also on the view that addiction is forever. It all depends on the person, their neurochemistry as well as genetical factors. For some people, abstinence is the only way out, for others, not so much. Personally, I used to be a very heavy smoker (around 3 packs a day). When I decided to try quitting, I signed up for a programme. The addiction program is free of charge around here, covered by goverment. Initially we made a plan to slowly wane off my need for nicotine with nicotine patches. In around 6 months into the programme with a few visits/calls every week I finally managed to quit. I still smoke every once in a while though (maybe once, twice a month), when in a party or other social setting, but I have not had cravings anymore.

It is not uncommon in many countries in Europe to invest signifant amounts into helping people with addictions overcome their issues. It is much cheaper long term to help the addict overcome their addiction than having the person committing crimes and spreading diseases. In the end, such programs net gain produces more value to the economy than the investment itself.

Your world view on addiction seems to be very black and white. There is lots of gray area there though. Try to put yourself into addicts shoes, try to imagine how it would feel like to have extreme cravings, not being able to think clearly or do anything without your hit. Desperately wanting to quit, fighting with yourself, but still unable to. No hope, no will. These people need help, professional help.

PS. Please do not nitpick (I am talking about the points regarding curing addiction and spreading diseases you brought out. I might have not explained myself perfectly, but the general point was clear.

$30 million for crack pipes and not a nickel for Ivermectin or Hydroxychloroquine.
If this doesn't shake out the last few sane liberals from the pack then nothing will. Democrats are mentally ill.

I agree with most of your points. But treating addiction in individuals is NOT the same as buying them crack pipes and other drug abuse instruments

Someone wants help they should get help. But this isn't help, it is enabling them

And I won't give the federal government another dime of my money until I'm totally convinced it won't go toward killing Americans with crack coc aine and other illicit drugs

I will be officially calling the DNC/Democrats Need Crack (to win) aka Democrack Regime.

Seeing as they have made their focus well known.

Idiocracy is starting to look like a good future, in comparison to what could be, if we stay on this road.

It should be said, we all need to stop asking how stupid can they get, because is evident they are taking it as a challenge. We got to stop asking...

Can we bring back common sense please?

I'm betting you could coax crackheads and heroin addicts into learning Calculus pretty damn quickly if you supplied them with a daily supply.

Half hour lecture and a half hour of working the math per day.

You'd be surprised what an addict's mind is capable of. It's a shame we can't harness their connivery in an ethical way.

The communist party using this to destroy the moral/ethical values of our society.

Just another example of the Progressive's insanity. Do we really need to dump 30 million on crack pipes? I think there are plenty of other programs that are much more deserving like maybe food banks?

My question, why are they not just funding the drugs directly and handing them out?

$30 million program will provide 'smoking kits' to vulnerable communities

The Biden administration is set to fund the distribution of crack pipes to drug addicts as part of its plan to advance "racial equity."

The $30 million grant program, which closed applications Monday and will begin in May, will provide funds to nonprofits and local governments to help make drug use safer for addicts. Included in the grant, which is overseen by the Department of Health and Human Services, are funds for "smoking kits/supplies." A spokesman for the agency told the Washington Free Beacon that these kits will provide pipes for users to smoke crack coc aine, crystal methamphetamine, and "any illicit substance."

This is insanity. The war on drugs turned into the Support for drugs under democrats.

30 million? These pipes cost nothing. Are they buying 5 billion of these ? and then for racial equity ? All these people coming up with these things and the ones supporting this should be put down. This country's needs to fast-forward to 2024 and elect Trump back in. He will kill this program day one.

So stupid..

Guess the worker shortages are over with eh 😃

Congressional Report: Opioid Overdoses Cost U.S. $1 Trillion Annually❇️

A report from the U.S. Commission on Combating Synthetic Opioid Trafficking concludes that not only are the deaths of Americans from opioid overdose at a record high but the cost to the country is $1 trillion annually.

“Whether measured in lives or in dollars, the United States’ drug overdose epidemic should shock everyone,” the report states. “It is unacceptable.”

Commission Chairs Rep. David Trone (D-MD) and Sen. Tom Cotton (R-AR), along with Senator Edward J. Markey (D-MA) and Congressman Fred Upton (R-MI), released the final bipartisan report on Tuesday.

The democrats are not stopping there with the crack kits pipes, they are going to open safe clinics soo drug addicts can go and get their fix free at the expenses of the taxpayer, in mostly democrat crack infected and substances abuse states.

I guess criminals now will have more rights than citizens and do not have to work a day in their lives.

The new minority will be the hard-working class.

Can not wait to hear when the democrats will mandate that working citizens and taxpayer will adopt a crack addict.

Whenever I see something ridiculous as this I immediately think it must be a money heist. You got to look at this from a criminal viewpoint. What do they have to gain and what are they wanting to achieve? It's all about money. This is a money heist in the works. Throw out some ridiculous number like 30 million for crack pipes and give them out to everyone on crack. Then you can sit back and say LOOK at all these crackheads with our pipes! We now need to spend 30 billion to get them off crack. So then they spend another 30 million of that 30 billion and the rest of the Big B money vanishes into the Biden's offshore account and you never hear of this story ever gain. Only a crooked father of a crackhead son would come up with this BS.

Since when does the government care of your injuries (cuts) that you sustain while smoking a deadly addicting drug?? ROFL

Do this and watch the profit prisons populations go up once the people use those government supplied crack kits.

I remember when Obama-Biden supplied needles to heroin addicts. Overdoses went through the roof, since it was then easier than ever to inject the drugs. (Maybe that was a plan for thinning the herd of hard drug users?)
