Well, it's not like we couldn't see this one coming...
Users of the facility provide their own illegal drugs and have access to medical personnel. But they are not arrested because the federal government provides an exemption saying the site is a pilot project for scientific and medical evaluation.

"The relief sought by the plaintiffs has implications well beyond this," said Hunter, the lawyer representing the federal government.

"It seeks to constitutionally protect the illegal use of drugs by drug addicts."
Apparently... much like 9 to 5, child-raisin', mortgage payin' Joe Lunchbucket... junkies are feeling life's pressures and stresses...
Shelly Tomic, one of the two addicts suing to keep the site open, said in her affidavit that she was one of the first dozen people to use the facility.

"It's much less stressful to inject there because you don't have to do it fast."
Call me crazy... but how about we put some money into saving people who actually care if they live or die?
