Box ‘O Needles

I was at the mall the other day. I had to rest. As I was washing the pee off my hands something caught my eye. I stared at this box for a bit and then looked around. I think I let out a “What the…?” Well it is what it is. It is indeed a trash box for used needles. Okay so the first thing that pops into my mind is a drug abuser shooting up in a stall then Motley Crue and last a diabetic. I’m not a diabetic nor a drug addict. So I’m wondering if this box get used for it’s purpose. I would think that someone who really needs to use some kind of needle would in a public restroom.  Would an addict go ahead and throw out their used needle? Well after watching countless hours of COPS I say no… those go back in their pockets. Would a diabetic give them self a shoot in a mall bathroom? I understand the idea behind this hanging on the wall but I’m betting that most people look at this and say to themselves…”ew”
