Dear Sirs & Madams; It is telling, how some use their powerful positions of community responsibility. The local media black-outs of the CIA-Drugs Symposium are defining decisions. The standard dishonest litany of excuses, began with, "We just don't have enough staff." Not enough to "just" stop-by an event open 14 hrs? I have been told, "I have a political agenda." According to some "I just want to legalize drugs." I do not. I am anti-prohibition. Prohibition "just" doesn't work. I would much rather see drugs regulated. Drugs are currently unregulated and completely out of control. No one bothered to ask . . . and this symposium wasn't about that. The US Intelligence agencies are intimately involved with the international narcotics trade. This gigantic trade has totally corrupted our governmental and financial systems. Non-coverage by local media, de-legitimizes an event, the caliber of presenters and their messages and de-values paid advertisements. Why was this deliberately done? Local newsrooms were given several advance press notices. A well-published retired professor from UC Berkeley; a 12-year DEA veteran; an ex-LAPD officer; an ex-Black Panther; a former FAA investigator; an executive TV producer for shows aired internationally by NBC and a former Asst. Secretary of HUD came to Eugene. Hundreds of citizens heard and asked questions for themselves about how and why cheap heroin is flooding our streets . . . and the local media ignores the event. Reporters from NY, SF, Seattle and Portland "stopped-by" the event. Where does one go for honest dialogue . . . here?
