Hillary and heroin

Hillary Clinton says first responders and police officers should carry a heroin overdose antidote. Really?

That would be practicing medicine without a license. Leave law enforcement to law enforcement and medical decisions to doctors, firefighters are emergency responders. I think saving someone from a true, tragic accident is far more beneficial to the general population than saving a drug abuser.
