>>>I don't know what their intent is - but all the people I know who use needles in public are diabetics and they appreciate a a safe needle disposal container.>>>
I don't know what kind of diabetics you know, but the ones I know wouldn't have them clogging up the drains, on the floor and in sanitary napkin bins. Somehow I don't see this as a diabetic issue.
Not all diabetics are responsible, mentally healthy people. A lot are drifters, mentally ill homeless people, etc., and lots of dumb court decisions have prevented public libraries from keeping these people out when they're obviously not there to use the library. No doubt many hang out in libraries full time, especially in harsh winter weather.
Me too. Anyone with common sense knows this isn't about diabetics. Of course, that at FR who wish to constantly defend this type of behavior would have us believe otherwise.
