Because the police told us! And I'm also pretty sure my friend was told the same when he was at the hospital.

I should have left the part about the paramedics out because it's not really central to what I feel is important about that story -- that our laws exist in a way that makes drug users afraid to seek medical attention. I don't mean to malign the paramedics, and perhaps my perception of their behaviour was off since it was a really traumatic night for me.

You're free to believe me or not. With regard to the Naloxone thing, I told it that way because that's just how I thought Naloxone had to be administered... I guess I've seen too many stupid movies (Pulp Fiction in this case, perhaps). If you knew the full context of what happened it might make more sense. My friends had never done heroin before and I've never around people who do it either, so I don't know anybody who carries around Naloxone.
