Didnt agree with alot of this. Your brother was right. Nearly lost me after part two. I have seen too many of those types of crude “reports” on YouTube. Yet I get the message and goal of this experiment. Kudos for the upload and the effort.
@BenLinus76 I disagree, I don’t think the heroin experiment was crucial. Though doing those drugs did add to the informative nature of the movie there are plenty of other scenes and stories he could have captured. Staph infections, prostitution, gangs, police corruption, and so many more things could have been captured.
@curlingisgay Taxpayers need to stop and ask the tough questions. Are you content with your tax money being spent on Insite where non-users walk in off the streets and a government employee immediately helps them inject themselves with heroin, creating yet another addict? Why are the employees not trained to vet the individuals coming into that site and try to deter them from even beginning the process of destroying their lives with heroin? Addiction is good business. That’s why.
@JRCrowley Im not saying your wrong by any means at all and dont get mad at me for asking I definatly see your point and I agree with you but isnt that there job? like She’s not supposed to judge this guy or anything
This film really needed his Heroin experiment. He went totally to the dark side. He wasn’t just some West Van rich kid with a camera, he jumped into the cesspool of addiction and felt the pain of a comedown. With out this part of the film, it would have been voyeuristic.
His response to the dope saved him. Five more day’s of drug use might have dragged him into the abyss.
JRCroley: Our society isn’t sick? What magical fairyland utopia do you live in? We’re poisoning the only planet we have to live on, the pollution sickens us, the disputes over oil pull us into endless conflicts, our society is stratified so that a tiny fraction of the population get to live in obscene wealth, while people other people don’t have enough to live.
Dude, you’re a lost cause if you cannot see the fallacy and absolute irresponsibility in that Insite employee’s actions. She might even get tossed out for doing what she did.
As far as your “harm reduction” comment? What an absolutely giant, steaming pile of bullshit. Harm reduction as it pertains to the Insite project is supposed to be around giving ADDICTS a place to inject safely. ADDICTS…
How the fuck does helping a KNOWN non-addict inject himself fit into that paradigm?
@JRCrowley This way, he is in a sterile environment with little to no chance of infection. The spread of disease is negated. That sounds like harm reduction to me.
@JRCrowley Actually, at no point does the subject say he is not a heroin user. He says he is experimenting. As for counselling him not to do it, it wont work. The guy has already made a conscious decision to use. If this were your average guy off the street and someone started lecturing against drug use, hed flip her off, go out into the street, shoot up with a potentially tainted needle, and possibly become infected with AIDS, hep or some other blood borne disease, go on to infect others.
@revolt1915 The actor in this video clearly stated that he was NOT A HEROIN user.
The purpose of Insite is HARD REDUCTION, NOT enabling people to USE HEROIN for the first time. This is such a pitiful and ridiculous violation of common sense that it almost defies description.
A government employee giving heroin to someone who has never used it before, instead of perhaps counseling that individual to NOT BEGIN using heroin!
THAT’S NOT HARD REDUCTION. IT’S HARM CREATION – ON YOUR TAX DOLLAR!
@JRCrowley As opposed to saying no to this person who has obviously made up his mind about doing heroin, and then sending him off into the streets to go buy from a dealer and shoot up with a dirty needle, continuing the spread of AIDS and Hepetitis? If these guys wont seek treatment and wont avoid the drugs, then its better that they should do it with a clean needle, so they dont infect others.
Chemical Lobotomy
Yeah, nausea. Itchies. It happens. And you come down.

this guy has such a nice apartment…
I am laughing so hard that I hired someone to type this out for me while I get it together. ……I am sorry.

F*** you Hedy Fry. F*** you Larry Campbell!! Why is my tax dollars going to this bullshit? You have zero moral credibility!!

@shiloanne congrats. your comment made no sense. good luck with crack
Lol… I was homeless/drug addict for two years and my mom is a crack addict. Keep pushing, sweetheart.
@shiloanne wtf, are you an idiot? everyone and their mom knows that homeless people use heroin. no big discovery there, Einstein.
It only helped him come to the root of the entire issue at hand… Yeah, completely pointless.

good doc man, i judged u too soon but after watching deeper i can understand you. well done.
How do you feel? “Very good” how is it? “awesome” “not as intense as I thought”
I think I’m going to go try it now.
