“Denver is quickly becoming the illicit drug capitol of the world,” Jeff Hunt, director of the Centennial Institute, a conservative think tank at Colorado Christian University. “High potency pot, proposed needle injection sites, and now an effort to decriminalize mushrooms. … As a state, we should be encouraging a healthy lifestyle with less drug use, not more.”

Why do people consider harm reduction to be incompatible with other strategies, like limiting access (via minimum age laws, high tax rates, etc) or active discouragement (scary TV ads or whatever)?
