Spree: VANCOUVER, British Columbia — Canada will open North America's first legal safe-injection site (search) for drug addicts later this year, a decision that drew swift criticism from White House drug czar John Walters. The so-called "shooting gallery" will be federally funded, a 12-seat facility where addicts will be given the equipment they need to inject safely under the supervision of nurses, said Viviana Zanocco, spokeswoman for the Vancouver Coastal Health Authority, which will run the program.

I understand the humanity of not wanting people to share needles in dark alleys. But in the long run (or short run) isn't the heroin going to kill them anyway? Or is this a means for counseling people while you're giving them the clean needle - that maybe you should try this methodone instead?
