TV Nuz duz DEAz werk
In an attempt to bring heat on the medical marijuana community, local corporate t.v. news sinks to new lows in an effort to assist the DEA with their crackdown.
In an attempt to criminalize medical marijuana providers and patients, the Tin O'Schlock Nwez broadcast a story about how EASY it was to obtain a script for dope. Their efforts can only be seen as pandering to the DEA.
In a state where over 70% of the PEOPLE voted for compassionate use, why would local media run a hatchet-job story on Prop 215? Even police on the streets agree that marijuana users present very little problem in comparison to hardcore drug users such as herion junkies and crack addicts. Could it be an attempt to influence public opinion in advance of the anticipated DEA raids on medical marijuana facilities in the Yay area? Probably.
What does this tell us about local t.v. news' allegances? Why do they feel the need to do local law enforcements work? Who the fuck are they to attempt to override the will of the people of the great state of California? And why are they doing the DEA's dirty work? You tell me!
