In the latest, most graphic example yet of depravity run amok in Democrat-run cities across America, New York City's controversial taxpayer-funded "safe" injection sites have hit a disgusting new low, with drug users — many of whom are jacked up on highly addictive fentanyl — openly engaging in sexual activity in broad daylight, often outside the homes of residents forced to witness the explicit scenes.
Yeah, Democrat politicians did that.
According to an exclusive report from the New York Post, the outlet "witnessed the madness firsthand near the East Harlem headquarters of OnPoint — which bills itself as "dedicated to improving the health, safety, and well-being of marginalized people who use drugs or engage in sex work" — on a recent Wednesday afternoon, "as a horndog pair were conjoined for fifteen long minutes — and kept going even as pedestrians awkwardly walked past."
The East Harlem Family Network — "Families from E 106 St to E 120 Street advocating for a safe Harlem for our children" has had enough of the depravity, almost taunting the Democrat-controlled city government with "Why wait for Trump to take the win?"
One disgusted eyewitness, who asked not to be identified, described what they saw:
The guy was just doing his thing, just looking around, wasn’t afraid of anything. I couldn’t believe it. I just could not believe it. The guy finished, and he just starts zipping his pants and walking away. And the woman was still bent over wondering what was going on. And then after he got maybe three yards away, she said ‘Hey, hey! That’s it?’ and he said, ‘Come on!’ and then she pulled up her pants and ran behind him.
I can't even. Actually, I can:
Not unlike spoiled children, there exists a segment of society that will do what they're allowed to do, including in public — and they will continue to push the envelope until they're stopped; whether in the commission of crime, public addiction and intoxication, or now, as we see: sexual acts in broad daylight.

“It’s disgusting,” added neighbor Shkigale Baker, who lives across the street from where the raunchy scene took place.
The government-backed shooting gallery down the block — where addicts are given clean needles and other paraphernalia to snort, smoke or inject their drug of choice on site — opened in 2021, along with a second location in Washington Heights.
Since then, nonprofit OnPoint has hauled in a total of $16.4 million in taxpayer funds from the city’s Department of Health, with more than half coming from the Big Apple’s share of the opioid settlement funds from the Sackler family, who developed OxyContin — the drug responsible for causing the opioid crisis.
The nonprofit’s annual budget has blown up from $2.6 million in 2021 to $17.4 million in 2024, according to tax filings.
Baker, 69, described the depravity to the outlet — placing the blame squarely on OnPoint:
There was a woman here, she laid her blanket out. I was sitting here thinking ‘What is she doing?’ Then she took off her pants, a guy came, and I’m sitting here thinking ‘What? I’m getting my own porno show – are you kidding me?
Unfortunately for Baker and other residents in the neighborhood, it's not a joke; it's what you get when you vote for Democrat politicians who pander to the worst elements of society. Harsh? Perhaps, but revoltingly true.
She continued:
They have sex in our yards, they defecate behind our cars. It’s a mess.
Incidentally, according to the Post, some 6,000 addicts have used fentanyl and other illegal drugs as many as 38,000 times at OnPoint’s two sanctioned sites over the past year — while the nonprofit shamelessly brags about having prevented 1,800 overdoses since its centers opened.
So what — is OnPoint to be congratulated?
Anyone with a modicum of knowledge about drug addiction knows that without help — help that must be sought by the addict — the end of the line is often prison, or death. The notion of "safe injection" sites is a fool's game that too many times only delays the inevitable.
