Fox4KC: Metro man warning neighbors of abundance of dirty, used needles in KC public areas
Deets on the efforts at prevention of this problem:
The Kansas City Care Clinic said it's seeing an uptick in the number of client needle exchange encounters.
Kansas City has had a needle exchange program for more than two decades with tens of thousands of needles exchanged monthly.
People can walk in, and turn in their dirty needles from IV drug use. They’re given clean syringes for every one they bring in -- so if a client brings in 200 dirty needles, they give them 200 clean needles.
The clinic on Broadway distributes just under 600,000 needles a year.
The idea is that giving clients clean syringes reduces the likelihood they will get HIV or Hepatitis. They're also given other supplies, and it's all done confidentially.

KANSAS CITY HYDE PARK RESIDENTS REPORT INCREASED JUNKIE TRAFFIC IN THEIR NEIGHBORHOOD AS WELL!!!
And so, whilst the local development agenda hopes to sell Kansas City luxury life and living spaces, the reality is that residents are increasingly threatened by violence and drugs.

It's obvious that KC has written off Hyde Park.
ReplyDeleteThey should have a condom exchange program. For every used condom a faggot brings in, they give him a new one.
ReplyDelete^^^ Why 10:04? Are you and your boyfriend running low?
ReplyDeleteMandatory minimum sentence of 3 years in prison for leaving a dirty needle in public.
ReplyDeleteThe problem stops the next day.
Fuck The Police.
ReplyDeleteWe can blame sLIE for neutering the popo, this whole mess is his fault, jackass only cares about downtown and the airport. I can’t wait for the federal investigation to kick in
ReplyDeleteOkay, @ 2:03, if that's what you want to do, go ahead.
ReplyDeleteJust make sure they are wearing a condom, and try to pick a place where you won't get a used needle stuck in your ass while they'redoing it toyou.
KCPD is one giant clusterfuck.
ReplyDeleteSo we are paying for de3vices to facilitate illegal drug use, but we want a RX database and more money for Combat? How bout we just spay or neuter anyone who brings needles for exchange?
ReplyDeleteOkay 2:33 AM go fuck yourself.
ReplyDeleteBrilliant retort, @5:48 -wonderfully devastating!
ReplyDeleteDid you think that up all on your own, or are you just borrowing a line you hear a lot from most of the people you meet everyday?
Probably just all those crappy flu shots that don't work but make pharma and public health a shitload of money.
ReplyDeleteThis report was about Olde Hyde Park , though the Gillham Park's The Slabs is flavored spot for intravenous drug use and sales .
ReplyDeleteDrug users don't travel far from their drug source, and South Hyde Park has its share of supply , dedmand and a very popular neighborhood dealer
