1) Fentanyl being sold as other things have been causing a lot of deaths, so a program here flooded the streets with naloxone kits and

3) specifically designed to be unaffected by naloxone, which just... confuses me.

Vancouver area, only been a bit of the anti-Naloxone stuff found, but, it's both concerning and baffling.

1/2 The media turned on Webb because he was a terrible reporter who made concrete claims without concrete proof. He wasnt the only

Obviously he wasn't a bad reporter if he managed to find this all out. He had concrete proof, but it was classified files he could not relea

That's is 100% not at all how classification works, like... not even close. Reporters are under no obligation to respect classification.

True, but look at him! 2 kids, family, do you think he wanted to be sentenced life imprisonment like Snowden will for his true claims?

the media turns on whoever they are told to, they're gov't, almost like a 4th branch. or they wouldn't be allowed to exist by same.

I didnt say it was false, I said he claimed it was true before he had good evidence. Which breaks every rule real reporters have.

Is there evidence to prove that he was murdered because of it?

Can either happen because they missed the brain, missed vital parts of the brain, or involuntary muscle reflex caused the second shot

2/2 journalist looking into this, he was just the only one willing to make the claim without having hard evidence.

To be fair, Waterfgatte is just made up out of thin air.

9 years ago | Likes 2 Dislikes 0

Close but not quite. Specifically, he made claims without providing the sources, as those were from inside and did not want to be revealed.

Not according to the Washington Post.

9 years ago | Likes 1 Dislikes 0

That is not the same as having no concrete proof. He just didnt share all of what that proof was.

9 years ago | Likes 36 Dislikes 11

Having proof but not letting anyone see it is functionally identical to having no proof. He may have had good reasons, but still.

9 years ago | Likes 16 Dislikes 3

So like when the state makes any claim based on classified evidence?

9 years ago | Likes 6 Dislikes 0

You could literally make up anything and cite unnamed sources. At some point you need actual evidence to make such impactful claims.

Ah ok, let me narrow the focus of the idea. I didnt say it justified representing a notion. I said he didnt make his (unfounded from our

then why kill this guy to shut him up. The suicide claim is so stupid its like another argument he rlly had something incriminating to say.

That's even more evidence that he wasn't actually assassinated.

It was 8 years later - i find it hard to believe the CIA forgot about him for 8 years, not to mention his ex-wife thought he was suicidal.

It is entirely possible to try to kill yourself, but not have the first shot do it, or spasm and pull again, if the trigger is light. ->

Highly unlikely, of course, but possible. Still looks like he was suicided, though...

Not unlikely at all. Contrary to the shit you see in movies and video games, headshots aren't instakills.
