To Develop Killer Fungus That Might Be Used Against Hemp

[FONT=arial, helvetica]Libertarians blast Congress for spending $23 million to develop anti-drug killer fungus[/FONT]
[FONT=arial, helvetica]WASHINGTON, DC—The United States government is spending $23 million to develop a killer fungus to wipe out marijuana plants— a dangerous plan that could cause an environmental catastrophe, said the Libertarian Party today. [/FONT]
[FONT=arial, helvetica]"This project is the political equivalent of athlete’s foot fungus:[/FONT]
[FONT=arial, helvetica]It’s nasty, it’s dangerous, and it needs to be stopped before it spreads," said LP National Director Steve Dasbach. "The last thing we need is a bio-engineered killer fungus turned loose on the world." [/FONT]
[FONT=arial, helvetica]Late last year, Congress passed legislation that authorized $23 million for research into soil-borne fungi called "mycoherbicides," which will attack and kill marijuana plants, poppy plants, and coca plants. [/FONT]
[FONT=arial, helvetica]When developed, the fungus could be released in such South American countries as Colombia, Peru, and Bolivia, said U.S. officials. [/FONT]
[FONT=arial, helvetica]The legislation was guided through Congress by U.S. Representatives Bill McCollum (R-FL) and Mike DeWine (R-OH), who said the killer fungus was potentially a "silver bullet" in the War on Drugs. [/FONT]
[FONT=arial, helvetica]But Libertarians say the tax-subsidized fungus is a "biohazard" that could have a disastrous impact on the ecosystems of the target nations—and, potentially, the whole world. [/FONT]

[FONT=arial, helvetica]"In the government’s irresponsible search for a quick-fix in the War on Drugs, politicians could cause terrifying long-term ecological problems," warned Dasbach. According to scientists, the killer fungus could... [/FONT]
[FONT=arial, helvetica]Attack other plants, wiping out valuable cash crops. [/FONT]

[FONT=arial, helvetica]"For example, a chemical alkaloid similar to the one that produces cocaine is present in many legal plants—including tobacco and coffee beans," said Dasbach. "In an effort to wipe out drugs, this killer fungus could wipe out the livelihood of millions of farmers." [/FONT]
[FONT=arial, helvetica]Cause many plants to develop stronger chemical defenses against the fungus, which could then mutate and spread to other, harmful plants. [/FONT][FONT=arial, helvetica]"According to scientists, mutated plants could pass on these resistant genes and create herbicide-resistant weeds, which could have a ruinous effect on farm yields," he said. "With world hunger already a problem, why risk making it worse?" [/FONT]
[FONT=arial, helvetica]Wipe out industrial hemp plants, which are legal in every major industrialized country outside the United States. [/FONT][FONT=arial, helvetica]"No fungus is smart enough to tell the difference between legal hemp and illegal marijuana," noted Dasbach. "This fungus could be the biological warfare equivalent of carpet bombing—killing whatever is in its path." [/FONT]

[FONT=arial, helvetica]What should Americans do about this dangerous program? Tell their Congressional representatives to apply a strong dose of political fungicide to "cure" it, said Dasbach. [/FONT]
[FONT=arial, helvetica]"This tax-funded fungus should be treated like any dangerous mold or mildew—exposed to sunlight and wiped clean. Congress should just say no to biological warfare." [/FONT]
[FONT=arial, helvetica]Dasbach also said Libertarians have a better way to reduce the consumption of marijuana, with no environmental risks: Legalize it. [/FONT]
[FONT=arial, helvetica]In the Netherlands, he noted, where marijuana is decriminalized, drug use is half that of the United States. In fact, a new study revealed that while 32.9% of Americans have tried marijuana, only 15.6% of Dutch adults have done so. [/FONT]
[FONT=arial, helvetica]"Treating adults like adults—and letting them make decisions about how to live their lives—seems to have a stronger anti-drug effect than any killer fungus," said Dasbach. "Wouldn’t it be ironic if liberty was a more effective anti-drug program than deadly mycoherbicides?" [/FONT]

CONCORD, N.H. , July 11, 2007

var storeInfo = new Array (1); var cbsx = 1; storeInfo[1] = '



(AP) Presidential hopeful Rudy Giuliani said Tuesday that people who want to legalize marijuana for medical purposes really just want to make the drug available to all.

"I believe the effort to try and make marijuana available for medical uses is really a way to legalize it. There's no reason for it," the former New York mayor said during a town hall-style meeting at New Hampshire Technical Institute.

He also said there are better alternatives.

"You can accomplish everything you want to accomplish with things other than marijuana, probably better. There are pain medications much superior to marijuana," he said.

"We'd be much better off telling people the truth. Marijuana adds nothing to the array of legal medications and prescription medications that are available for pain relief."

After a speech at the first of several stops in the first-primary state, the early front-runner in the race for the Republican nomination fielded questions. None dealt with the unpopular war in Iraq.

Instead, voters wanted to know about the failed immigration bill and Giuliani's views on climate change and health care.

Giuliani said promises of universal health care are hollow and simply not manageable.

"If you try to do socialized medicine, a la Hillary Clinton, John Edwards, Barack Obama or Michael Moore, you're going to end up with a disaster," he said.

He urged voters to press other candidates for specifics and to move beyond highfaluting language.

"We tried that before. We tried that with the `War on Poverty' and we tried that with welfare. Look what happened. We tried a simplistic solution and look what happened. We locked people into poverty. It was a tragedy."

Later, while visiting a deli and store in Hooksett, he explained why he hadn't been in New Hampshire as frequently as some of his rivals.

"You've got to talk about other people about strategy of the campaign. I go where they tell me," he joked with reporters.

Giuliani last visited New Hampshire June 12; in contrast fellow Republican Mitt Romney and other lesser-known hopefuls have been stumping here more frequently.

"Ultimately, I think, by the time we get to the New Hampshire primary, we'll have spent as much time as any candidate here, probably more than a lot of them," he said, adding, "The order in which we did it, I guess it had to do with our fundraising, I guess it had to do with whatever our other priorities were."

Later on Tuesday, Giuliani spoke to a town hall-style meeting at a Nashua hotel. He warned against terrorism — a central argument for his candidacy. He said Democrats wouldn't keep the United States safe and that no matter what happens in Iraq, the larger war against terror would continue.

He rejected an audience member who asked whether Giuliani thought U.S. foreign policy was in part responsible for the Sept. 11 terrorist attacks.

"The September 11th attacks have nothing to do with American foreign policy," Giuliani said. "They have everything to do with ... Islamic terrorists."

The questioner said he based his question on his reading of the 9-11 Commission report. Giuliani said that he didn't agree the commission — on which he briefly served — came to that conclusion.

"It had nothing to do with our foreign policy. Our foreign policy could change tomorrow and they'd still want to attack us. ... They want to kill us and attack us because we represent the infidel, modern world."

Police arrest man, seize 1,100 marijuana plants


[SIZE=-1]09:46 PM CDT on Wednesday, July 11, 2007

[/SIZE]
[SIZE=-1]By MATTHEW HAAG / The Dallas Morning News
[email protected]
[/SIZE]

A 25-year-old man was jailed Wednesday after about 1,100 marijuana plants were seized from his home in a neatly manicured, middle-class Richardson neighborhood.
Richardson police Lt. Mike Scott described the growing operation at 1201 La Mesa Drive as unsophisticated but "one of the largest I've seen."
Brett Lachance was arrested on a charge of possession of marijuana, less than five pounds, a state jail felony. He was being held at the Richardson City Jail in lieu of $3,000 bail.
The investigation began unfolding late Tuesday morning, when police received a call from a neighbor about a suspicious person. Police saw an open window and a broken lock, so they entered the house. After smelling a strong odor of marijuana and seeing the plants, they obtained a search warrant, Lt. Scott said.
Police seized the plants and lighting equipment used to grow them in two upstairs bedrooms.
Mr. Lachance was arrested when he returned home later in the day. He was charged with possession of less than five pounds based on the leaves' weight, Lt. Scott said.
Neighbors said Mr. Lachance moved into the 2,300-square-foot home about three months ago. Lt. Scott said it appeared he did not live there regularly, and it was unclear whether other people were involved in the marijuana operation.
On Wednesday morning, men from a lawn service were mowing and edging the front yard.
Barbara Ball, who lives across the street, said the home's next-door neighbor told her that he saw an unfamiliar vehicle in the alley around 11 a.m. Tuesday. When he approached, the car fled, so he called police because he thought the home was being burglarized, she said.
"They really picked the wrong neighborhood to do this because we really watch out to what's going on," Ms. Ball said.
The neighborhood near Coit and Arapaho roads is inhabited mostly by older residents and a few younger families. Mr. Lachance's home is valued at $185,000 by the Dallas Central Appraisal District
Ms. Ball said she heard from police that the doors to the two bedrooms where the drugs were found had been padlocked and that the house had been "destroyed."
Ms. Ball said residents long had been suspicious: The home's occupants came and went only at late hours; they apparently never moved in furniture; and their upstairs window would glow at night from what looked like a heat lamp.
"The whole neighborhood was aware something was going on," she said. "They weren't the type of people to talk. They would wave, say hi, but that's it."
Still, the mother of two teens said, the discovery was shocking.
"It was awful. We had to tell our children that something illegal was going on," Ms. Ball said. "We had to tell them never to approach the me

Drug Czar Gives Warning
Federal official calls marijuana growers dangerous terrorists
07-13-07|Redding.com|By Dylan Darling

The news: The nation’s drug czar says pot garden growers in the north state are terrorists.

What’s next: Anti-drug agencies plan to continue the blitz on gardens next week.

The nation's top anti-drug official said people need to overcome their "reefer blindness" and see that illicit marijuana gardens are a terrorist threat to the public's health and safety, as well as to the environment.

John P. Walters, President Bush's drug czar, said the people who plant and tend the gardens are terrorists who wouldn't hesitate to help other terrorists get into the country with the aim of causing mass casualties. Walters made the comments at a Thursday press conference that provided an update on the "Operation Alesia" marijuana-eradication effort.

"Don't buy drugs. They fund violence and terror," he said.

After touring gardens raided this week in Shasta County, Walters said the officers who are destroying the gardens are performing hard, dangerous work in rough terrain. He said growers have been known to have weapons, including assault rifles.

"These people are armed; they're dangerous," he said. He called them "violent criminal terrorists."

Walters, whose official title is director of the White House Office of National Drug Control Policy, said too many people write off marijuana as harmless. "We have kind of a reefer blindness,' " he said.

No arrests have been made so far in the four days of raids, the opening leg of what Shasta County Sheriff Tom Bosenko has promised will be at least two straight weeks of daily raids.

He said suspects have been hard to find because their familiarity with their terrain makes it easy for them to flee quickly.

Although crews doing the raids are using Black Hawk and other helicopters to drop in on some of the gardens, Bosenko said they don't want to give the growers any warning of a raid.

"We try to move in under stealth," he said.

As of Thursday morning, Operation Alesia raids had resulted in the yanking of 68,237 young marijuana plants from public lands in Shasta County. Raids already have been conducted in Whiskeytown National Recreation Area, as well as on land managed by the U.S. Forest Service north of Lake Shasta and other public land near Manton.

The operation is being led by the sheriff's office and has involved 17 agencies, including the California National Guard and the U.S. Drug Enforcement Administration. It's believed to be the largest campaign of its kind in the state, Bosenko said.

The operation is named after the last major battle between the Roman Empire and the Gauls in 52 B.C. That battle was won by the Romans.

With the blitz of marijuana gardens around Shasta County, Bosenko said officials hope to not only get rid of the pot, but also win back the land for the public that owns it.

"These organizations are destroying our lands and wildlife," he said.

Bernie Weingardt, regional forester for the Forest Service's Pacific Southwest Region, said the 28,000 acres believed to house illegal marijuana grows on national forest land throughout the state would cost more than $300 million to

revive.

"These lands must be cleaned and restored," he said.

His estimate is based on a National Park Service study that found it costs $11,000 per acre to pull the plants, clear irrigation systems, reshape any terracing and replant native vegetation, said Mike Odle, Forest Service spokesman.

While Walters didn't give specific goals for Operation Alesia, he said anti-drug agencies aim to cripple the organized crime groups that he said are behind the marijuana cultivation.

"This business we intend to put into recession, depression and put its leaders into jail," Walters said.
