now turned cannabis advocate,

At least she has principles and turned down a bribe from the DEA.

“[When they hired me] they forgot to get me to sign a confidentiality agreement—and boy did I know the dirt. They called me in and said ‘name your price, $10,000 a month? $20,000? What do you want Belita?’”

You think she's getting rich as a "cannabis advocate?

Simpleton!

... until one of them jumps on the pothead train.

She is a lobbyist….she will say whatever she is paid to say.

Never trust lobbyists who lie or peddle objectionable ideas and immoral actions.

Decktard likes to fear monger all cops are bad... until one of them jumps on the pothead train.

I'll give anyone credit when they stop being a sheep and start thinking for themselves.

Of course we all know that ain't happening anytime soon with you and the other submissive boot-licker Gatlin.

Authoritarian followers are highly submissive to established authority, aggressive in the name of that authority, and conventional to the point of insisting everyone should behave as their authorities decide.

“[When they hired me] they forgot to get me to sign a confidentiality agreement— and boy did I know the dirt. They called me in and said ‘name your price, $10,000 a month? $20,000? What do you want Belita?’”

Now that you have established what she is….all that needs to be established is how much she does it for.

She is a lobbyist….she will say whatever she is paid to say.

She is saying what she knows to be true - the DEA is a corrupt organization that lies as a rule.

I'll give anyone credit when they stop being a sheep and start thinking for themselves.

Now that you have established what she is….all that needs to be established is how much she does it for.

Yeah - I know what you insinuating asshole.

She is no longer a whore for the DEA. She is able to speak the truth now - and you don't like it when someone challenges your "Reefer Madness" dogma.

She is saying what she knows to be true

You don't know that ...

She is a PAID lobbyist!

She will say whatever she is paid to say ...

Authoritarian pricks don't understand that someone can do and say something because it's RIGHT!

... you don't like it when someone ...

I find it repulsive when someone tries to convince me to believe a PAID lobbyist!

We're done here troll.

.... you think she's in it for the money.

You bet your sweet ass, she is.

She is a PAID lobbyist.

What is it about the word "PAID" that you don't understand?

I find it repulsive when someone tries to convince me to believe a PAID lobbyist!

Yet you had no problem believing her when she was preaching the DEA "gospel".

WTF is up with that.

We're done here troll.

You were done before you even started....expecting anyone to believe a PAID lobsyist!

pothead train.

It is funny, never any complaints about alcohol consumption which kills people on the road, destroys families, etc.

Yet you had no problem believing her when she was preaching the DEA "gospel".

I never delieve anything a PAID lobbyist says....regardless for whom they work.

You should learn to do the same....and stop promoting lies!

I never delieve anything a PAID lobbyist says....regardless for whom they work.

She was PAID by the DEA to spread their lies and you believed her then. Now she's telling the truth, and you don't believe her.

stop promoting lies!

You mean like the DEA does?

I'm not promoting any lies - I am exposing them.

It is funny, never any complaints about alcohol consumption which kills people on the road, destroys families, etc.

Some of these folks here get their views on pot from "Reefer Madness".

Gatlin is old enough to have watched the film when it was first shown in theaters.

"She moved to Colorado and began advocating for medical cannabis."

She believes in the legalization of ALL drugs.

I'm not promoting any lies - I am exposing them.

The only thing you are exposing….is the idiot that you are.

But then, everyone already sees that …

Yes, Belita Nelson represented the DEA in the international media from 1998 to 2004 ... but as a third-party hired speaker of her own company, The Starfish Foundation. She never worked for the DEA, as the article implied.

Belita, con artist that she is, founded the Starfish Foundation in 1998 -- a drug awareness group. She raked in the donations by hiring former Dallas Cowboys players to help raise money. In 2004, it all came crashing down.

"But bank records obtained by News 8 reveal a troubling trend of expenditures—apparently not related to solving the drug crisis, but instead focused on Nelson's spending habits, which included ski trips, resort hotels, booze, and Dallas Cowboys season tickets."

The DEA cancelled her contract, donations stopped, and the Starfish Foundation went belly up.

But hey, not to worry. If you want to donate, she set up a new foundation -- The Gridiron Cannabis Foundation.

interweb blowhard

Pot - meet kettle.

You are a troll who offers absolutely NOTHING to every thread you spew your bilge on.

Crawl back in your bottle, and while you're at it - sod off you bloody tosser.

Former DEA “Chief Propagandist” Says Agency Knows Cannabis Is Safe

The former DEA “Chief Propagandist” was a propagandist then, and he's still a propagandist, but for a different group.

Two words: Starfish Foundation.

OMG, Deckard, all you can pick are LOSERS....and theh you try to defend them.

You are such an imbecile ...

Former DEA “Chief Propagandist” Says Agency Knows Cannabis Is Safe, Keeps It Illegal for Profit

Pot is another direction of attack upon rational Western culture.

You can live happily in a dung pile if you use enough pot. You can demand that other people live in the same dung pile if you use enough pot, or they use it to adjust to your habit.

Between the drug use, the free sex, the out of wedlock kids, the abortions, the immigration of angry incompatables that no sane society would tolerate, and the sheer stupidity and inattentiveness to responsibility or consideration of consequences, this nation is fastly becoming one huge dung pile.

That was part of the original strategy designed to collapse this nation more than 80 years ago, and that strategy is working.

"You can live happily in a dung pile if you use enough pot.'

In Brave New World they used Soma. Same thing.

The DEA cancelled her contract,

Kinda hypocritical of the DEA, wouldn't you agree?

DEA agents attended drug cartel sex parties in Colombia, Justice Dept. probe claims

Drug Enforcement Administration agents partook in wild sex parties with hookers hired by Colombian drug cartels, a bombshell report released Thursday by the Justice Department claims.

The report, published by the department’s Office of the Inspector General, reveals a culture of widespread and extreme sexual misconduct across several federal agencies as well as persistent resistance to the investigations created to unearth it.

Among the most shocking of the report’s dozens of allegations is the incidence of “‘sex parties’ with prostitutes funded by the local drug cartels for DEA agents at their government-leased quarters, over a period of several years.”

Kinda hypocritical of the DEA, wouldn't you agree?

No.

The DEA refused to reschedule cannabis from a Schedule 1 drug last year when it had the opportunity....

The DEA does not have the legal authority to reschedule cannabis. The DEA is required, by law, to follow the medical and scientific determination of DHHS regarding scheduling.

In accordance with the CSA scheduling provisions, after gathering the necessary data, DEA requested a scientific and medical evaluation and scheduling recommendation from the Department of Health and Human Services (HHS). HHS concluded that marijuana has a high potential for abuse, has no accepted medical use in the United States, and lacks an acceptable level of safety for use even under medical supervision. Therefore, HHS recommended that marijuana remain in schedule I. The scientific and medical evaluation and scheduling recommendation that HHS submitted to DEA is attached hereto.

In short, your source is just propaganda.

In short,

The WOD is fabulous for drug cartel profits, so you love it.

The End.

Like satan you want gods children to be stoned and stupid. That way satan can deceive them and they can go to hell.

Why do you want gods children to do drugs and get stupid?

Are you a loser?

"You can live happily in a dung pile if you use enough pot.'

In Brave New World they used Soma. Same thing.

Brave New World was theoretical conjecture. Pot combined with propaganda presenting impulsive self destructive behavior as expression of a new freedom is a reality.

Why do you want gods children to do drugs and get stupid?

I don't want anyone to do drugs, but it's not my decision.

I recommend that they don't unless there's a medical need. Personally I don't drink, smoke, or use drugs except for some prescription heart pills.

I don't want to run other people's lives. And I'm not crazy enough to think that I'm qualified, or should try to tell them what to do.

Do you feel that Obama has kept you from becoming a heroin addict for the past 8 years. If so thank him.

No certainly not.

Do you think adults saying heroin should be legal has an influence on kids to do heroin?

Do you think adults saying heroin should be legal has an influence on kids to do heroin?

Yes the children will see the wisdom in Dr. Paul's position, and decline to buy the D&R party's heroin.

They'll have a piece of Moms Apple Pie instead. This is how you make America great again, by not dumping a load of WOD manure on the kids!

The WOD is fabulous for drug cartel profits, so you love it.

The End.

Your wingnut source criticized the DEA for not taking an action which would have been unlawful for them to take.

When the fact is pointed out, you whine and cry like Chuck Schumer.

Surely, you will squirt a few when President Trump has the drug laws enforced in all 50 states. Wahhh, wahhh, wahhh!

President Trump has the drug laws enforced in all 50 states

The WOD has been a loser since day one. They turned a molehill into a mountain of drug use, incarceration, wrecked families and communities.

And now they will build a wall and burn the crops. Don't do the crime if you can't do the time.

... burn the crops

bullshit. I am making more money than ever, here in the good old USA.

If they can find and destroy poppy fields in Afghanistan, they can find and destroy your pot farm as well.

I don't want anyone to do drugs, but it's not my decision.

I don't want anyone to drive drunk... and it's not my decision. Doesn't mean I espouse no drinking and driving laws or the lack of regulations.

Your anything goes hippie paultard idiologies... is pathetic. It would work well on an island full of PAULTARDs... away from the adults of the world.

Name one city that has lowered it's police budget after legalizing marijuana. Don't bother looking. You can't find one.

As for the others, ANY illegal activity always enriches certain groups. It's why they do it. Of course, they're risking their lives and freedom in exchange. If it wasn't drugs it would be something else. Did legalizing alcohol get rid of the gangs, the smuggling, the money and the killings?

I rest my case.

Did legalizing alcohol get rid of the gangs, the smuggling, the money and the killings?

Of course - that's why you don't see the Seagram's gang in a turf battle with Jack Daniels.

ANY illegal activity always enriches certain groups.

Including police and drug cartels.

"Of course - that's why you don't see the Seagram's gang in a turf battle with Jack Daniels."

So you're saying legalizing alcohol got rid of the gangs, the smuggling, the money and the killings?

The country is now at peace?
