DEA SHOWED ITS CONTEMPT FOR OUR LIBERTY

In your article on Ed Rosenthal (June 4), DEA spokesman, Richard Meyer 
says: "We feel Proposition 215 was a coup d'etat by the movement that wants 
to legalize not only marijuana, but all drugs. They deceived the public."

This reflects the DEA's contempt for liberty, elections, democracy, and the 
intelligence of American voters in many states over a period of years.

Jesus says it is not what enters a man that defiles him, but what comes out 
(Mark 7:15). This treasonous language spewing from the DEA while America 
fights for the freedom of others speaks much of the anti-American, 
anti-Christian, and anti-family values of those who only wish to preserve 
their well-abused privileges to impose suffering upon those who've harmed 
no one nor their property while living off other peoples' taxes.

Some say terrorists will take away our freedom. The DEA political ideology 
calls American elections "coups," and continues to terrorize those deemed 
"politically incorrect."

They appear to relish their opposition to American democracy. The DEA and 
the Justice Department owe the people of this and other states an apology 
for their arrogance and treasonous contempt against our elections, our 
democracy, our liberty and our intelligence.

Limit government, not liberty. It is still our patriotic duty.
