Democrats promised a solution to Maine’s fentanyl crisis, but what they delivered was a steaming pile of… well, you know…
Their bright idea was to open a place where addicts could shoot up safely. Already, that so-called solution was on shaky ground, right? They even had the gall to name the building the “Church of Safe Injection,” managing to mock Christianity in the process.

So how did this genius idea work out? About as well as you’d expect. Instead of solving the fentanyl problem, addicts turned the place into a taxpayer-funded outhouse, littered with used needles and human waste. It got so bad that the building has now been condemned.
Look:
Another Democrat plan straight down the ol’ poop chute.

When city officials walked into the Lewiston site, it was a full-blown biohazard nightmare.
One of the state’s first harm reduction community centers has abruptly closed, leaving extreme filth so severe that the building is condemned.
Fecal matter, thousands of used needles and people sleeping in the basement were all found inside a commercial building now locked up and slapped with a condemned notice.
Photos show what Lewiston city officials were met with when they responded to 195 Main Street. “One of the doors had been broken into and from there, you have access through the rest of the building,” Lewiston City Building Inspector Travis Tardiff said. “Several other doors had been unlocked to allow other people in.”
So much for a “community center.” Instead of helping people, this building became a 24/7 open-air drug den where chaos and filth circled the toilet bowl. But wait, it gets worse.
Turns out, the so-called church didn’t just fail; they abandoned the place entirely, leaving neighbors to deal with the fallout, smell, and probably disease as well.
The WGME piece goes on:
Most of the building is empty, but the Church of Safe Injection used to give out clean needles and offer other services. The city believes they abandoned the space, leaving a mess behind. Mail is overflowing in the mailbox, and a calendar is frozen in time, still reading “June.” “I wouldn’t expect fecal matter,” Mancini’s Owner Evan Mancini said. “I would expect that maybe there is some amount of used needles, maybe not left in that capacity.”
Mancini owns the restaurant next door. “I am happy that it seems to be that we are relocating these types of businesses out of the downtown business area,” Mancini said. The Maine Center for Disease Control and Prevention says what happened there violates state health and safety regulations. “It felt like the CDC actually didn’t care what was going on,” previous tenant Jermey Hiltz said. Hiltz used to rent out the space above the Church of Safe Injection.
He says he complained to the city and the CDC for two years, but nothing was done. “There were needles everywhere, people all over the streets, people defecated on my doorstep when I would come to work over and over,” Hiltz said.
Imagine being a small business owner next door, dealing with addicts pooping on your doorstep, begging the city and the CDC for help, and getting nothing but crickets. That’s Dems leadership for you: plenty of emotional talk and zero results.
Even the people who believe in this harebrained harm reduction nonsense are calling this a disaster that hurt more people than it helped.
The WGME piece concludes:
Hiltz had to move and says the Church of Safe Injection was doing more harm than good.
“I’m a 100 percent believer in harm reduction, but what has happened here is harm induction,” Hiltz said.
This wasn’t “harm reduction”; it was more like a full-blown harm production. But that doesn’t matter, because Dems will still pat themselves on the back for this flaming failure.
But honestly, this is what Democrat solutions look like: filth, chaos, and decay.
They don’t want to solve problems, because problems are the foundation of their power. Addiction, crime, disease, and despair keep people dependent on their broken systems, and that’s exactly how they like it.

In the end, the only thing the “Church of Safe Injection” reduced was common sense. And now, Lewiston is left cleaning up a giant, taxpayer-funded pile of political poop.
