The DEA and steroids (rant)

Unfortunately we all know how the last few years has gone for bodybuilding. I remember writing a post on the subject a couple years ago. The post was called "discrimination among bodybuilders" a colleague of mine laughed as I wrote it. He felt that it was "just in my head." I pointed out how I was aware that some very qualified bodybuilders were turned down for positions that they were highly qualified for based on their "look." I also spoke about how if a bodybuilder walks into a room 8 out of 10 males will make their jealous comments such as..."steroid boy", "walking pharmacy", "no dick", etc. The most disturbing comment I have seen is when someone who drinks beer and smokes everyday, ie: "congress?, house? senate?", or even worse the outlaw partiers, ie: "pot heads, coke heads, dwi alcoholics" , will actually give the point of view that steroids will kill you and take years off your life? I ask these people than.... where is the death epidemic? The athletes of the seventies should all be dead. Very few are, and there is nothing to show that steroids were the cause. The other 98% of users are perfectly healthy and are outliving the finger pointers.
Is this what the United States has become? A group of jealous politicians, and citizens, which many of whom drink and smoke, having the right to make decisions for athletes. Furthermore, at the same time we are in war! These jealous, disgruntled old men, have placed athletic hormones in catagories that are controlled substances? I have never herd a teenager say he picked up a bottle of testosterone and wanted to go out and party. The lack of education in the house and senate is very disturbing to me, and we can almost all agree that when the announcement was made to go after the "andro" bolics, and the bill actually passed through the house, it shows exactly what Rick Collins has stated in the past. "This is a witch hunt" It falls right into the corruption of having a "WAR ON DRUGS" and a "WAR ON TERRORISM" at the same time? It is very illogical and immoral to have these wars continuing on and on. This is very irresponsible politics. I truely believe that no matter what you do here, the law is dictating. We are only free to do what the government says we can do. I am not feeling freedom here anymore. If the DEA has the right to do whatever they want in the USA, "and they do" , is'nt that a form of communism? I am ready to move to Canada, and I thought I would never say that.
 
Bro easily put what is there more of?

Yes, they all want to look and feel great, but the fact is they go on diets and try and it never works for most. So they bash Anabolic Androgenic Steroids (AAS) and anyone else whoo looks too good and they think they use drugs and hence there dedication, training, and nutrition aspects.

Most congress, politicians, punks, smokers, etc. are more of these type of thinking people then bodybuilders are. Weed, coke, heroin, LSD, meth, ciggs are all worse then gear of course, but more people use them and more politicians and congress stay in there jobs longer and have somthing to talk about if there werent any of these drugs.

I beleive that U.S even makes some money on all these drug seizures which include vast amounts of money and drugs. Also, why not ban some of these suicide/depression meds and dieting drugs that fuck some people up. My friend its all politics....know one actually knows whats what so they make up the next big threat for America "Steroids" it is the stupidist thing I have heard. The gaem will never stop just like rec drugs wont.
 
Back in the Musclezine days I wrote "The Gearhead's Manifesto," I dont know that I have it saved anywhere.
 
I 2nd that!

You know, the damn goverment should stop worrying so much about gear and put their focus more on things that matter.


Why don't they take all the money they are using to bust ppl for the gear and put it torwards the war in iraq. That would be too easy i guess....

actually, who cares where the money goes. THey need to just give it up.
 
Thanks

Glad you liked the post bro. I had a very bad unamerican experience with the DEA last July. I'll put a post up about it later. A lot of people need to know the way these "god almighty" jerks are. I'm not one bit afraid of standing up for the issues of bodybuilders, I have a world title from 01 with the Musclemania organizationan, and I'm not going to stop unitil things are made right. I have spoken to a very known lawyer for the bodybuilding community, and I'm right..... he has assured me... More to come, I PROMISE! Guilty before innocent is not going to work. Can't be afraid of bullies.

Yeah, I especially hate it when those guys enforce the laws that were democratically voted (via congress) into effect by the American majority. I know that's what we're paying to do and all, but I just have a pet peave for people that actually work at their jobs.
 
How about this???

Anyone seen the SWAN?? How about that Surgery 90210 show..... if thats not proof, I don't knowwhat is. God forbid we take a pill to look better, or at least try to look better... when a woman wants tits she buys them, when a woman wants a butt (hehehe), she buys it?? This country needs to stop being so dam hypocrtical. Nothing else to say here.
 
My take on thw hole thing is this:...I see these politicians on TV talking about assault weapons that should be unbanned...wich is going to hapen in a few days and all the other issues that put our people in danger on a daily basis but yet they are on TV ranting and raving about steroids and the deadly effects. This latest thing with the gun ban is unbelievable that ANY person would argue to put these types of weapons on the stret and then sit and discuss gear being in the same category as other scheduled substances....Goes to show that the political clout and almighty dollar can get you anything in this country
