 <title>False information from the DEA regarding marijuana consumption </title>
 <link>http://www.freetalklive.com/content/false_information_dea_regarding_marijuana_consumption</link>
 <description>&lt;p&gt;As marijuana “pot” smokers gather beneath Seattle’s Space Needle to celebrate the fact that the drug was legalized in the state of Washington, the DEA continues to warn youth that legalization doesn’t make something “right” or good for you. According to the DEA, when marijuana is smoked the drug THC moves into the user’s lungs and then into their bloodstream, where it is then moved into all the organs in the body, including the brain.&lt;/p&gt;

 <title>DEA stealing the use of a truck and getting their informant killed</title>
 <link>http://www.freetalklive.com/content/dea_stealing_use_truck_and_getting_their_informant_killed</link>
 <description>&lt;p&gt;The DEA employed an informant, the driver, and the truck of his employer to pose as a marijuana trafficker to catch other traffickers. The employer, who owns the truck, didn&#039;t know. Driver gets killed, truck shot up. Out of control DEA. Seriously. For pot.&lt;/p&gt;

 <title>Govt-sponsored study destroys DEA&#039;s classification of marijuana</title>
 <link>http://www.freetalklive.com/content/govt_sponsored_study_destroys_deas_classification_marijuana</link>
 <description>&lt;p&gt;In a recent Open Neurology Journal article, four University of California at San Diego researchers review the evidence concerning marijuana&#039;s medical utility and conclude that its continued classification as a Schedule I drug is &quot;not tenable.&quot; But the DEA&#039;s classification of marijuana has been destroyed many times in the past. Twenty-four years ago, an administrative law judge, responding to a legal challenge initiated in 1972, recommended that marijuana be taken off Schedule I, calling it &quot;one of the safest therapeutically active substances known to man.&quot;&lt;/p&gt;

 <title>Weed won&#039;t kill you, but the DEA might</title>
 <link>http://www.freetalklive.com/content/weed_wont_kill_you_dea_might</link>
 <description>&lt;p&gt;California Man’s ‘Drug Holiday’ Becomes Four-Day Nightmare in Holding Cell&lt;br /&gt;
But for Mr. Chong, the celebration ended in a Kafkaesque nightmare inside a San Diego Drug Enforcement Administration holding cell, where he said he was forgotten for four days, without food or water.&lt;br /&gt;
To survive, Mr. Chong said he drank his own urine, hallucinated and, at one point, considered how to take his own life. By the time agents found him on the fifth day and called paramedics, he said he thought he could be dead within five minutes.&lt;/p&gt;

 <description>&lt;p&gt;&quot;I&#039;ve been on the fence for years about the legalization of drugs ... and now I&#039;m a victim of this crazy war on drugs,&quot; says Freshman, who pledged to sue until &quot;I see [the agents&#039;] houses sold at auction and their kids&#039; college tuitions taken away from them. There will not be a better litigated case this century.&quot;&lt;/p&gt;
