I sit here thinking about what other useless and do-nothing laws this state will enact. They solve nothing and at worst, make things worse.

Is it the liberal mentality or what? To enact a law that “notifies victims” when a felon tries to buy a gun is a prime example of this warm and fee-good legislature. It is already illegal for that felon to do so. Write the report, obtain the warrant required, and arrest the repeat offender. It’s on the books! Also, to provide “safe injection sites” is another unlawful piece of proposed legislation. It OKs the possession and use of controlled substances that are also are already against the law. And to say a Nurse will monitor that usage is insane. Will that nurse have a lab to make sure of the dosage. Will that nurse have a medical and usage history of that law breaker? NO! And any nurse who abets that usage is breaking all precepts of medical procedure and how knows how many oaths.

And instead of attacking the problem, the Legislature is trying to deny legitimate patients pain medications that they have been on for years. All under the guise that the medication is the problem, not the illegal, unintended usage, and profiteering by both pharmaceutical companies and the drug dealers. I am appalled that people will use illicit drugs. I have no sympathy nor will I aid and abet that usage by accepting the edict of a few in government who proffer this abuse.
