More dangerous substances are entering the Denver drug supply, Harm Reduction Action Center warned in a newsletter this week. “The Iron Law of Prohibition posits that as law enforcement becomes more intense, the potency of prohibited substances increases,” HRAC Executive Director Lisa Raville wrote in the newsletter. That is exactly what is happening, she said.

Denver doesn’t look very “vibrant,” to use the mayor’s term, when bus stops are transformed into open-air drug dens. In fact, the people who smoke meth and fentanyl in homeless encampments, in front of businesses and walking down the street are tarnishing the reputation of Denver’s unhoused neighbors.

I recently had a reader leave a comment on one of my articles about his own experience with homelessness. Here is what he had to say:. “I am homeless. Here's (a) CliffsNotes version. I was an ASE-certified master automotive technician with three advanced level certifications. I did it for 37 years and was one of the top diagnosticians in the city, if not country. Due to some health issues I had to leave that industry and now work as a building maintenance tech at a high-end Denver hotel. My former roommate passed away and the … landlord basically kicked me out. In the interim … I have had two cars stolen in two years. So, I am now homeless, with no car…. I am a highly skilled and extremely intelligent individual who makes a whopping $21 an hour. I walk and ride the bus all over. I see more and more regular people, with pets, kids, and everything they own living in cars. These are not drug addicts or people with mental health issues.”
