INJECTION OF LOGIC

While I applaud Mr Brogden's support for a continuation of the trial 
of the medically supervised injecting room in Kings Cross ("Brogden 
takes the longest walk, armed only with conviction", Herald, June 6), 
I cannot understand the logic behind his statement that he will not 
support a trial beyond Kings Cross.

If he is genuine in his view that he will support something that 
could save even one life, how many more lives might have been, and 
might yet be, saved if trials were conducted in, say, Cabramatta or 
Marrickville?
