In the last two weeks, the Hamilton Fire Department has responded to 18 drug overdose calls and five heroin overdoses on Tuesday alone.
How do you know that this wasn't just an odd week where there were 18 drug overdose calls. On could argue that this isn't substantial proof that drug overdoses occur often. If there can be 18 drug overdose calls one week whose to say there can't be zero calls the next week?
"Eventually there's going to come a time when we're going to be tied up and we're not going to be able to make it to that person who thinks, ‘They're there every time so I'll be OK'," EMS worker Tony Houston told FOX19.
Perhaps with the legalization of illegal drugs, even more hard core drugs like heroin, more education around the topic can be generated. For example when, where, and how to appropriately use a specific drug and the possible consequences of using these drugs. Most of the problems that come from using drugs is not using them correctly or not understanding what could go wrong. Also, this problem could be prevented by having an age limit for those who wish to purchase drugs and regulations on how much a person can purchase during a set amount of time. However, the real point should be that drugs isn't the biggest threat to the human population. Out of the top 19 health concerns in the world having childhood where they're underweight is the highest and alcohol (some may argue a legal drug) is ranked 3rd. While illicit drugs are ranked 18th.

if you had seen its dogs sinking their teeth into unarmed, nonviolent Negroes. I doubt that you would so quickly commend the policemen if you were to observe their ugly and inhumane treatment of Negroes here in the city jail; if you were to watch them push and curse old Negro women and young Negro girls; if you were to see them slap and kick old Negro men and young boys; if you were to observe them, as they did on two occasions, refuse to give us food because we wanted to sing our grace together. I cannot join you in your praise of the Birmingham police department.
