Notorious Harm Reduction Advocate Garth Mullins Speaks up.

Published: Oct. 20, 2021, noon

“Us drug users are the only people that you can kill 20,000 of between elections and not even get a mention in the campaign race.”

Garth is nationally known for his advocacy and his Podcast "Crackdown".

As a member of The Drug Users Liberation Front (DULF), and the Vancouver Area Network of Drug Users (VANDU) He's done some wild shit.

Buy drugs on the darknet, test them with a mass spectrometer and give them away in front of the Vancouver Police Station?

Why not.

How did they not get arrested?

Sheer numbers.

Hundreds of people, including politicians, giving away drugs are kinda tough to deal with.

"Some of us want to get arrested so we can have our day in court with these ridiculous laws. But here we are."

Interesting.

Tune in this week and listen to Garth #takeofftheblinders around Harm Reduction advocacy in Canada.

We'll talk about what he thinks is wrong with our current models, what he thinks needs to change, and how we can change it.

"The most dangerous part about drugs is that they're illegal."

He might be right. Come have a listen and then you decide.

Oh yes, it's back to the fringe we go my friends. And we won't be pulling any punches this week as we dive into the argument of free drugs for all, right here, on Hard Knox Talks.

Buckle up!!
