HITLER COMMENTS DRAW RESPONSE

RE: LTE "Hitler Was No Drug User"

Robert Eichmuller refers to crystal meth as "the poor man's heroin",
but heroin is a painkiller and meth is a stimulant. OxyContin is
called "hillbilly heroin", which just shows how much Robert Eichmuller knows.

Kennedy used to get "booster" shots on a regular basis. Like with
Hitler, these shots came from a doctor, so they were not considered
"drug abuse."

Witnesses said that Hitler was suffering deliriums in the last weeks
of his life, and his hands shook constantly because of these shots.

Amphetamine has been around for about 100 years, but this poison that
people are kids on the streets is just a home-made version of it -
like what moonshine is to real liquor.

Suggesting that my medical marijuana was "dusted" is insulting to
every medical user in this country.

What if I was to tell you that the pot I use was grown with your tax
dollars in Flin Flon, Mr. Eichmuller?

Would you still think it was "dusted"? Probably.

Besides that, how does insulting my choice of medicine help you, or
anyone, learn more about this issue? Would you say a diabetic "must
have got a bad batch of insulin" because he wrote a letter that you
didn't agree with or understand?

As for Hitler's crimes, he was nuts long before his drug abuse later
in life. His "crimes" were the crimes of a whole country gone nuts,
not just one man. The point of my mentioning Hitler and Kennedy was
to point out that Meth wasn't invented in the 1990s.

Robert Eichmuller should read more so he can learn how to throw fancy
words around, and make informed opinions, instead of simply dealing
in what he calls "common sense."
