This is the man who was found shot in the head twice & it was ruled a suicide. There’s a movie called Kill the Messenger that’s about this story it’s worth watching for anybody wanting to know
In the 80s there's an organization called accuracy in media that messed up the integrity of journalism, because they were trying to protect the image of the Reagan administration
@@schnarfschnarf5886 And who did away with the Fairness Doctrine when we had better integrity? I'll answer that for you: Ronald Reagan and the Republican Party.
Mexico is no where near as dangerous ass the USA. .....and it's the USA that creates to violence in Mexico, USA wants MORENA out.... USA lost control of Mexico and USA will do anything to regain what it lost. NO more USA GMO corn in Mexico. NO more USA glyphosate in Mexico. NO more USA cheap and expensive gasoline in Mexico. NO more Obama/Blackrock privatization of Mexican energy. NO Mexican lithium for Elon. NO Mexican support for Ukraine. ..... and much much more... USA is going to increase the violence in Mexico .... google "Obama Genaro Luna"
The “war on drugs” is not a war on drugs… it’s a tool. To make money, to threaten, to give the public a sense of security, to control a part of the elite, those who order the war are customers themselves…. No drugs are ever “really stopped” only given to arrest for the numbers and statistics. I bet drugs have never been “out of stock”, ever.
Weapons were flown into Nicaragua in C137’s. Rather than flying a heavy lifting aircraft back home empty, they were filled with cocaine. While this was happening, Nancy Reagan delivered PSA’s to the American citizens telling them to “just say no” to drugs. These type of things happen all the time.
And her husband Ronny was handing out life sentences to inner city men and women for drug charges, mainly cocaine, that their contra buddies were supplying. But they saw it as 2 birds with 1 stone. They helped their war efforts and also got to abuse and terrorize the inner city and break up minority family homes etc. They were loving every minute of it
Let me clarify something, the Reagans were clueless about what the spooks were doing. Certain people in certain places do stuff that is mostly beyond knowledge of most people that go through the White House. If you see the connections in certain federal agencies and what they've done recently you'll see that many times doesn't matter who's in office. They'll even help remove or keep people from getting into office. Just look back to the 60's and follow the crumbs.
I interviewed Gary Webb on a radio program I facilitated. This man was marginalized and ruined. He is a true journalist. He had what money can't buy: Respect, dignity, and integrity.
In the show snowfall they use a Asian lady as the reporter. The CIA later kills her in the show. Funny how they change every aspect of the character but show they are the ones who did the killing.
There is a very good reason why people in the CIA won't come forward with illegal activities that they come across while doing their job. On my first day on the job, it was mostly briefings on how things work and how to deal with issues that you might think are inappropriate. We were told that, if we came across something questionable, to report it to superiors. One day, that's what happened, and I went to my Division Chief with my concerns. His response was to suggest that I meet with the Inspector General and explain what I knew, and that's what I did. They told me that there was no truth to what I was telling them and within a few days, it seemed that everyone knew that I was a snitch. That's when the hazing began and within a few months, I submitted my resignation. Within a matter of weeks, the story came-out in the press. What I had told them was true, but it ruined my career. I was even cast as a Soviet Agent and followed for years.
Hmm I kind of actually believe you because that seems like the way things may actually go. They officially TELL you to report things when you’re new but really the ones already there know to do this if you do.
It’s reserve psychology.. they tell you all that info to see what you’re going to do. And if you actually do it, then this happens. I won’t confirm nor deny. My balls aren’t as big as yours. Stay safe, they’re ALWAYS watching you, and will watch your kids. Be careful what you tell them
Well when I was going to join the CIA I understand there’s a fine line between what is American freedom and world freedom it’s a machine kinda like when the bodies own immune response fights against itself, but over all it’s trying to help You should know just what is done for the safety of the American infrastructure. Good or bad , But the problem is it’s human beings are simply never as smart as we wish to believe..... maybe more people should embrace the idea of don’t get mad get even .... if just the CIA does even if it seems bad .... is nothing any other country would do to us or others if they had a chance, Now through the years have we become the monsters we once opposed, maybe their minds was wrong but their hearts are right does that make a difference????? Maybe the souls of the forgotten can answer with the fall of empires that rust away with time from evil deeds .

Something needs to be done I'm so over this corruption in this country. When I was employed at the CIA I was assigned a case involving some national security issues. When I found enough cause to get someone arrested my divisional Chief called me into his office and specifically told me to not proceed with anything because that person was to valuable to be in jail. Years later Libia happened
You didn't even spell "too" or Libya correctly and we're supposed to believe you? Just saying, find it hard to believe someone entrysted with national security secrets and a work requirement having a great grasp of countries abroad, especially one like Libya, would be working for them.
@@slowery43 It's laughable to mention that cretin Russell Brand in the same sentence as heroes like Snowden and Assange. Those two sacrificed everything to get the truth out, while Brand is nothing more than an insufferable narcissist posing as a comedian.
I think Mr Webb was most likely a very effective investigative journalist who was widely respected by his fellow professionals for his thoroughness. Their witnessing the ease at which t'he truth was 'nothing to write about' - was a clear message to all investigators.
The CIA has always been selling drugs. Reagan didn’t know about it but Bush Sr. Did as he was deeply involved with the CIA and also was family friends with the guy who tried to assassinate Reagan.
The war on drugs is a war on poor people. It's their communities that get flooded with drugs and it's their communities that get overpoliced. Criminalizing and destroying poor communities so they can't come together to try and change their circumstances.
This is such an under publicized thing. This guy was the biggest whistleblower ever. I've watched many docu's on this whole situation and he was right the whole time and tried to make it public but it never got the attention it deserved!! Great video. Really wish you would make content more often tho!!! I love your voice too. I don't wanna sound like a creep or a fruitcake but your voice is dreamy😉 please do more videos. You cover great stuff!!🤘
the biggest one is Julian Assange and to this day is wrongfully "imprisoned" for over 10 or 11 years! Nonetheless is Gary Webb a Hero of his own!! I admire his Courage and Condemn his Death as Murder!

THIS IS TRUE I WAS THERE. IT STARTED IN 1985 IN HONDURUS IT WAS A CRAZY TIMEI WORKED AS A CONTRACTOR FOR THE CIA .THE STORY GOES A LOT DEEPER BLOOD DEEP.
Love to hear your version of events from then, also it being 1st hand. So interesting the different perspectives and untold tails no one will ever hear otherwise..
The mafia , cia and george bush details Iran Contra and the links to the savings n loan crisis in the 80s there is an interview from C-SPAN in the early 90s by the author. It's mind-blowing how deep in our economy this went.
Yes the drugs were the Nazi pig bu$h's gig, along with whacking the Kennedy's then W did 911 with i$LIErael while jeb was the cocaine importer, Satanic Trash all!
Not easy to speak the truth even when confronted with huge, deadly obstacles. Gary, you are a true hero! A Man of integrity, honor and dignity. Rest In Paradise.❤
@@mrtriffid try world hero. Us in non-american countries are still benefiting from his work. Remember not everywhere is as well regulated as the US. And if even in the US this happened, you can only imagine how it went down in less developed countries.
This was not about the actual merchandise ( drugs), but more about taking simple cocaine and boosting it by turning it to crack and then reselling at much higher price. Then bust everyone caught with the stuff just sprinkled everywhere ( tons of coke EVERYWHERE) and then take all that money and neatly roll it back for the Contras. wow
It breaks my heart that my country Nicaragua went through so much exploitation just for the people to have hope of having their own country for themselves only to be pawns in a bigger chess game, thank you Gary Webb for doing what any person sane and honest enough to shed light to a dark situation, shame it goes unnoticed.
It amazes me that we have TONS of information on the attacks on our communities, but we have those amongst us who fall for the okey doke by doing the work of facilitating the destruction of such. 🤷🏾♂️ I hear the blame on the govt, I hear the blame on their agents. where is the blame for the selfish traitors of our communities? 🤷🏾♂️ijs
Exactly, you can a horse to water but you can’t make them drink it. It’s always a sellout causing the downfall of the community and enablers who sit and do nothing
This is true yet why did the Government have some crap such as this & the FBI had Operation Prevent the Rise of a Black Messiah? Why is unrepentant America currently falling off. Or simply under the judgment of God after the (1619 to 2019) biblical Genesis 400 yrs mark? Long story short crap is much deeper than its surface lvl + gotta peep the biblical & spiritual aspect to all this
Journalism is fine now. The Journalism that is bad now is conservative FoxNews, Newsmax, America One, and Sinclair News Stations. Ignorant people like to refer to the rest of the News as liberal media. It's not the liberal media. It's the media. Conservatives who don't like what the media are reporting call it "the liberal media." Let's give a example. Donald Trump is the head conservative Republican. He is a lifelong molesterer of women, a lifelong pathological liar, a lifelong horrible businessman, a lifelong launderer if Russian Oligarchs/Mafia money through his hotels, a lifelong Prima Donna who never admits failure while consistantly failing, and nation wide Republucans love him. Republicans think Trump is a great businessman because they saw him on the Apprentice Reality TV Show. The first rule of Reality TV Shows is they have nothing to do with Reality. Show me a person who loves pro wrestling (which is all fake!) and I'll show you a Republican. Republicans support a lifelong pathological liar for President of the U.S. and watch a "NEWS" Channel (FoxNews) that just paid $787.5 million for knowingly lying to it's audience for over 2 years that the 2020 election was stolen.
Because any investigative journalist gets the same treatment today … other “journalists” put out hit pieces so people will question their credibility, government officials lie about any involvement, and then those same “journalists” put out more hit pieces basically saying “see, the government said they didn’t do it, nothing to see here” … and the sad part is too many people actually believe it
Are you suggesting that this one man, Gary Webb is somehow representative of “the good old days” of journalism? If so, you clearly know nothing about American history or world history.
This is AMAZING CONTENT!!! Please continue making great content like this. We need good content like this always… It speaks truth to power and continues to keep these stories relevant.. Kudos to you!
Fantastic Content! Very informative and no pauses or breaks from the original story. There is no commentary of how the narrator felt or ad drops or asking for likes and subscribes. Just hard hitting facts. Awesome work!
This is history that should be taught in are educational institutions in America. I also remember when Ronald Reagan took away the funding from the mental institutions and support which put thousands of sick people out on the streets running around homeless and hooked on drugs Like ,crack .
U don't think they r still doing the same thing if u don't usniffing smoking the shii they bringing over here and all the congress people that was complaining about the situation was all a act everyone got a bag to look the other way
Hell yeah they are. Chinese fentanyl my ass. That shit is CIA fentanyl. Wide open borders make it easier to bring in. 10 times more deadly than even crack . Horrible.
I been sayin that for years… unfortunately, the broken parts of black culture can only fix itself now… white people aren’t allowed to talk about it … this incidence is probably the only thing one can point to, but a few black people I’ve mentioned it to, were on drugs and didn’t care … few people care about any of these kind of crimes nor do they understand the crushing sociological implications … they just think they will always have access to the life we’ve become accustomed to over the last 80 years
califaces ? People need to know. if you didn't commit a crime. Your detain by law enforcement accused for a crime you didn't commit and taken to jail for 20 years is kidnapping. Never call it what law enforcement call it. Because in law, it's what you say. law enforcement would call it a arrest and if they find out years later your innocent, they call it a false arrest. Here's why is kidnapping a federal crime ? Section 1201 of Title 18 of the United States Code codifies the extremely serious federal crime of kidnapping. As stated, while most cases are most often prosecuted under the laws of the 50 states, it can also be a federal crime in certain circumstances, carrying a potential life sentence or even the death penalty.

Sometimes you have to play dirty and I understand amd accept that but it should not come at the expense of countless american lives no matter what ethnicity or community they're from. Its shameful and driven by the power hunger elite. Smh
I remember this story. I actually created a subtitle file for a film version of "Kill the Messenger" a few years ago. Such a terrible tragedy. Nowadays I find myself wondering in aw how it ever came to be that the general public can consent to operations involving such deceit at the highest levels of government to operate time after time after time. That United States war machine with the CIA and NATO alongside seem always to be stirring the pot somewhere and paying journalists to betray their ethics and misrepresent facts so as to create a bias with which further consent for further unethical operations might be manufactured. I first noticed it when I was nine or ten years old during the Gulf War, Desert Storm, all of that, and it's been happening over and over again ever since and from what I've read, has been happening time and time again for at least a century. When are we going to stop allowing ourselves to be manipulated by these groups of bad actors? When are we collectively going to regain our individual self-respect and study the information given to us with the same reverence for the truth that Gary Webb wrote with? Surely willful ignorance can't be the preference of the majority. If we want our kids and their kids to live in a brighter, safer world without restrictive borders and hateful prejudices, we have to stop allowing power to deceive and manipulate us. It's a no-brainer.
And still, this story isn't widely known at all. I mentioned this to someone a few days ago, and they didn't believe me. "The CIA wouldn't do that", "how was no one arrested?", "Why wasn't this reported on more?" All that good stuff.
The worse part of this is those in government just stood there and watch them destroy the people in the underprivileged area’s then comment on how there are no fathers in the homes how uneducated and lastly the lawlessness in those area’s the created every stinking problem I just named and then some
The War on Drugs - Lost The War on Poverty - Lost The War on Cancer - Lost The War on Terror - Draw The War on Hunger - ??? The War for Education - Lost The War on Child Trafficking - Lost
War on Terror = Lost. United States officials created the war on terror. If they're genuine at fighting it, then they first need to stop participating in it.
Back in the 90's there was a older couple that had a large piece of property above the Camarillo Plains (north of Los Angeles, CA) in the Santa Monica Mountains. The National Park Service offered to buy their land on numerous occasions, but the couple declined. Supposedly, the man had been seen on numerous occasions buying things in Malibu with $100 bills and the authorities used this specious "evidence" to get a search warrant for his property which was raided by multiple agencies early one morning. The man, hearing a commotion outside his home (it's dark outside) came to the door with a firearm and the officers shot and killed him. The search turned up nothing illegal... This is our government coveting the land (To add to Santa Monica National Recreation Area) the couple owned; wanting to seize it using the laws at the time and killed an innocent man in the process. Frightening to consider.
This is the man who was found shot in the head twice & it was ruled a suicide. There’s a movie called Kill the Messenger that’s about this story it’s worth watching for anybody wanting to know

When I found enough cause to get someone arrested my divisional Chief called me into his office and specifically told me to not proceed with anything because that person was to valuable to be in jail. Years later Libia happened
You better chill big homie they gon get you
Damn bro nice knowing you ✌🏾🕵🏿♀️
You didn't even spell "too" or Libya correctly and we're supposed to believe you?
Just saying, find it hard to believe someone entrysted with national security secrets and a work requirement having a great grasp of countries abroad, especially one like Libya, would be working for them.
@@givemesometime8405 dude just lying looking for likes lol
I have had this happen as well. I have witnessed someone get off being convicted of committing murder because he was a loyal employee.
Need more Gary webbs 🙏🏽
They are being constantly attacked & kidnapped.
We have them - Ed Snowden, Julian Assange, Matt Taibbi, Russell Brand, and several others that will never be discussed on MSM
Whitney Webb is one.
@@slowery43 It's laughable to mention that cretin Russell Brand in the same sentence as heroes like Snowden and Assange. Those two sacrificed everything to get the truth out, while Brand is nothing more than an insufferable narcissist posing as a comedian.
I think Mr Webb was most likely a very effective investigative journalist who was widely respected by his fellow professionals for his thoroughness. Their witnessing the ease at which t'he truth was 'nothing to write about' - was a clear message to all investigators.
It's ironic to think about how all this was going on during Reagan's presidency and the 'war on drugs'.
The CIA has always been selling drugs. Reagan didn’t know about it but Bush Sr. Did as he was deeply involved with the CIA and also was family friends with the guy who tried to assassinate Reagan.
The war on drugs is a war on poor people. It's their communities that get flooded with drugs and it's their communities that get overpoliced. Criminalizing and destroying poor communities so they can't come together to try and change their circumstances.
Reagan? The actor?
The war on drugs was advertising… learn about the law of attraction
I saw a movie on this once, Jimmy Carter couldn't bring the coke home, but Ronnie could.
This is such an under publicized thing. This guy was the biggest whistleblower ever. I've watched many docu's on this whole situation and he was right the whole time and tried to make it public but it never got the attention it deserved!! Great video. Really wish you would make content more often tho!!! I love your voice too. I don't wanna sound like a creep or a fruitcake but your voice is dreamy😉 please do more videos. You cover great stuff!!🤘
the biggest one is Julian Assange and to this day is wrongfully "imprisoned" for over 10 or 11 years! Nonetheless is Gary Webb a Hero of his own!! I admire his Courage and Condemn his Death as Murder!
CIA have a good look where it was founded, the United Kingdom, LONDON to be quite honest,that is why the F B I can not stand them.
I don’t think he was a whistleblower, he just exposed it.
@@GB-tg7ws he's right in my opinion
This is the man who was found shot in the head twice & it was ruled a suicide. There’s a movie called Kill the Messenger that’s about this story it’s worth watching for anybody wanting to know
I love when you drop it always brings us knowledge, especially about people that do not have a light on them.
Rest In Peace Gary Webb
THIS IS TRUE I WAS THERE. IT STARTED IN 1985 IN HONDURUS IT
WAS A CRAZY TIMEI WORKED AS A CONTRACTOR FOR THE CIA .THE STORY GOES A LOT DEEPER BLOOD DEEP.
Write a book about it.
Love to hear your version of events from then, also it being 1st hand. So interesting the different perspectives and untold tails no one will ever hear otherwise..
No, balls deep
The mafia , cia and george bush details Iran Contra and the links to the savings n loan crisis in the 80s there is an interview from C-SPAN in the early 90s by the author. It's mind-blowing how deep in our economy this went.
Yes the drugs were the Nazi pig bu$h's gig, along with whacking the Kennedy's then W did 911 with i$LIErael while jeb was the cocaine importer, Satanic Trash all!
Not easy to speak the truth even when confronted with huge, deadly obstacles. Gary, you are a true hero! A Man of integrity, honor and dignity. Rest In Paradise.❤
There aren’t many journalists alive today to match him, Whitney Webb comes to mind.
Gary Webb and Danny Cassolaro are American heroes who deserved to be remembered for their heroic truths. Replace cia with Mossad, joint effort.
Beautifully put together!
Man was legendary.
A REAL American Hero!!!!!!!!!!!!
@@mrtriffid try world hero. Us in non-american countries are still benefiting from his work. Remember not everywhere is as well regulated as the US. And if even in the US this happened, you can only imagine how it went down in less developed countries.
All drugs should be legal and available at the pharmacy! Now we can fix the problem.
It will be by 2030 I think or 5years later.
This was not about the actual merchandise ( drugs), but more about taking simple cocaine and boosting it by turning it to crack and then reselling at much higher price. Then bust everyone caught with the stuff just sprinkled everywhere ( tons of coke EVERYWHERE) and then take all that money and neatly roll it back for the Contras. wow
The powers that be use these laws to profit from the destabilization of communities.
The War on Crime was about making money in many different ways.
They saw the market of the drug world and They seized it and controlled it for themselves to continue their colonialism
Ok injun lol
Racist much
Just like prohibition for alcohol and desert storm and war in Iraq for oil
It breaks my heart that my country Nicaragua went through so much exploitation just for the people to have hope of having their own country for themselves only to be pawns in a bigger chess game, thank you Gary Webb for doing what any person sane and honest enough to shed light to a dark situation, shame it goes unnoticed.
Same brother… I left the U.S. recently and am glad I did…
Not pawns blood is on yalls hands as well
It amazes me that we have TONS of information on the attacks on our communities, but we have those amongst us who fall for the okey doke by doing the work of facilitating the destruction of such. 🤷🏾♂️ I hear the blame on the govt, I hear the blame on their agents. where is the blame for the selfish traitors of our communities? 🤷🏾♂️ijs
We need to get rid of the traitors
Exactly, you can a horse to water but you can’t make them drink it. It’s always a sellout causing the downfall of the community and enablers who sit and do nothing
Money talks. Look at the informants! It’s literally a full time job being an informant. I know that’s apples and oranges but you get my point
This is true yet why did the Government have some crap such as this & the FBI had Operation Prevent the Rise of a Black Messiah? Why is unrepentant America currently falling off. Or simply under the judgment of God after the (1619 to 2019) biblical Genesis 400 yrs mark? Long story short crap is much deeper than its surface lvl + gotta peep the biblical & spiritual aspect to all this
Poverty is the cause
This is the clearest I have ever head this explained. Nice work.
Crazy to think how journalists used to be and how they are now
Journalism is fine now. The Journalism that is bad now is conservative FoxNews, Newsmax, America One, and Sinclair News Stations. Ignorant people like to refer to the rest of the News as liberal media. It's not the liberal media. It's the media. Conservatives who don't like what the media are reporting call it "the liberal media." Let's give a example. Donald Trump is the head conservative Republican. He is a lifelong molesterer of women, a lifelong pathological liar, a lifelong horrible businessman, a lifelong launderer if Russian Oligarchs/Mafia money through his hotels, a lifelong Prima Donna who never admits failure while consistantly failing, and nation wide Republucans love him. Republicans think Trump is a great businessman because they saw him on the Apprentice Reality TV Show. The first rule of Reality TV Shows is they have nothing to do with Reality. Show me a person who loves pro wrestling (which is all fake!) and I'll show you a Republican.
Republicans support a lifelong pathological liar for President of the U.S. and watch a "NEWS" Channel (FoxNews) that just paid $787.5 million for knowingly lying to it's audience for over 2 years that the 2020 election was stolen.
Because any investigative journalist gets the same treatment today … other “journalists” put out hit pieces so people will question their credibility, government officials lie about any involvement, and then those same “journalists” put out more hit pieces basically saying “see, the government said they didn’t do it, nothing to see here” … and the sad part is too many people actually believe it
Are you suggesting that this one man, Gary Webb is somehow representative of “the good old days” of journalism? If so, you clearly know nothing about American history or world history.
This is AMAZING CONTENT!!! Please continue making great content like this. We need good content like this always… It speaks truth to power and continues to keep these stories relevant.. Kudos to you!
RIP, Mr. Webb may your sacrifice never be forgotten.
Fantastic Content! Very informative and no pauses or breaks from the original story. There is no commentary of how the narrator felt or ad drops or asking for likes and subscribes. Just hard hitting facts. Awesome work!
What a gripping tale that I literally grew up watching. This whole affair set my heart and soul against our authoritative overlords, permanently.
beautiful exposing 🙌
Well done. Subbed and look forward to more of your work 👊
We need part 2 and more videos like this 🍿
“Snowfall” is based on Gary Webb’s investigation, and incorporates Freeway Rick’s account.
Yep
Every body who was ever arrested for drugs should be freed this is entrapment on a mass scale
PHUK THAT!! They knew they were breaking the law.
Free all axe murders!
Thank you Gary Web. You deserved to live on and continue your good work.
This is history that should be taught in are educational institutions in America. I also remember when Ronald Reagan took away the funding from the mental institutions and support which put thousands of sick people out on the streets running around homeless and hooked on drugs Like ,crack .
RAYGUNZZZZZZ‼️
Overpopulation Controls Abound..
Thomas Wayne
If u go far enough up the drug chain u run into governments most of the time
And if you run through the banks, where they wash their drug money... you'll find Yakmuka bankers. The alpha and omega of the whole thing.
I wish all "reporters" today were as Gary Web.
U don't think they r still doing the same thing if u don't usniffing smoking the shii they bringing over here and all the congress people that was complaining about the situation was all a act everyone got a bag to look the other way
@ that time, even CLINTON had Little Rock a hub
Hell yeah they are. Chinese fentanyl my ass. That shit is CIA fentanyl. Wide open borders make it easier to bring in. 10 times more deadly than even crack . Horrible.
Great video CaliFaces
expose police cartels in the usa and stop blaiming black poeple
Thank you!!!
I been sayin that for years… unfortunately, the broken parts of black culture can only fix itself now… white people aren’t allowed to talk about it … this incidence is probably the only thing one can point to, but a few black people I’ve mentioned it to, were on drugs and didn’t care … few people care about any of these kind of crimes nor do they understand the crushing sociological implications … they just think they will always have access to the life we’ve become accustomed to over the last 80 years
some bad cops and a lot of good ones.
Great story… keep them coming
I've heard the theory but never how it came about , thank you for this
Califaces, you doin' solid work here on your channel. Well written, well spoken, well researched, well presented. You're a real G
R.I.P. Gary Webb. Thank you for your service.
When the main stream media comes out en mass to dispute a reporter's work on government nefarious affairs, it's probably true.
califaces ? People need to know. if you didn't commit a crime. Your detain by law enforcement accused for a crime you didn't commit and taken to jail for 20 years is kidnapping. Never call it what law enforcement call it. Because in law, it's what you say. law enforcement would call it a arrest and if they find out years later your innocent, they call it a false arrest. Here's why
is kidnapping a federal crime ?
Section 1201 of Title 18 of the United States Code codifies the extremely serious federal crime of kidnapping. As stated, while most cases are most often prosecuted under the laws of the 50 states, it can also be a federal crime in certain circumstances, carrying a potential life sentence or even the death penalty.
Freeway the real Rick Ross 💯🙏
The real Rick Ross is the rapper
@@GOOCHIElicker no it’s not goof ball
@@GOOCHIElicker L
@@GOOCHIElicker how can someone who came up with a fake persona 20 some odd years after the real person, Freeway Rick, came to prominence, be the ‘real Rick Ross’ lol😂
@@GOOCHIElicker no tf he's not that's who he stole his name from goofy
Sometimes you have to play dirty and I understand amd accept that but it should not come at the expense of countless american lives no matter what ethnicity or community they're from. Its shameful and driven by the power hunger elite. Smh
I remember this story. I actually created a subtitle file for a film version of "Kill the Messenger" a few years ago. Such a terrible tragedy. Nowadays I find myself wondering in aw how it ever came to be that the general public can consent to operations involving such deceit at the highest levels of government to operate time after time after time. That United States war machine with the CIA and NATO alongside seem always to be stirring the pot somewhere and paying journalists to betray their ethics and misrepresent facts so as to create a bias with which further consent for further unethical operations might be manufactured. I first noticed it when I was nine or ten years old during the Gulf War, Desert Storm, all of that, and it's been happening over and over again ever since and from what I've read, has been happening time and time again for at least a century. When are we going to stop allowing ourselves to be manipulated by these groups of bad actors? When are we collectively going to regain our individual self-respect and study the information given to us with the same reverence for the truth that Gary Webb wrote with? Surely willful ignorance can't be the preference of the majority. If we want our kids and their kids to live in a brighter, safer world without restrictive borders and hateful prejudices, we have to stop allowing power to deceive and manipulate us. It's a no-brainer.
Thank you..
Gary webb..
One of my heroes
And still, this story isn't widely known at all. I mentioned this to someone a few days ago, and they didn't believe me. "The CIA wouldn't do that", "how was no one arrested?", "Why wasn't this reported on more?" All that good stuff.
And that's the issue, ignorance and trust in our system and government. .
They were just play'n dumb. That's a WS tactic
I was in MCC San Diego in December of 1995 on the 9th Floor when Gary Webb went to visit Freeway Rick...I myself went out to visit that day!
I knew about him back in the day... the ridiculed the fck out that boy... the world was so different before the internet
Absolutely nothing has changed. It's worse
The History of This County is Sick........
This beat goes unnecessarily HARD
Gary Webb Rest-In-Paradise…🙌
Interesting aspects of information collected throughout history!
Big ups 💪🏾 👍🏾Gary Webb you are a true hero!
Great documentary! Very well researched and great presentation!
Tragedy for the death of Mr Webb. Thank you for this interesting subject.
The worse part of this is those in government just stood there and watch them destroy the people in the underprivileged area’s then comment on how there are no fathers in the homes how uneducated and lastly the lawlessness in those area’s the created every stinking problem I just named and then some
Nowadays practically every DA runs protected drug rackets.
No one wants to talk about the traitors living in the black neighborhoods amongst us who sold us out and caused thousands of deaths of our loved ones
That's right they played a major role the destruction of black neighborhoods so sad 😢
It pales in comparison with Africans enslavement of their own people.... LONG before Europeans came along.
Great story. Loved
Using the testimony from drug dealers and not having names is always going to be something that will be criricized.
And yet Blandone did 2 years and then kept as a snitch! Justice, where??
Gary Webb and Danny Casselero amazing what those 2 had in common
Danny casselero was something great!! Not saying Gary Webb wasn’t but not a lot of people know about Danny
You can hardly find much about casselero on UA-cam
Great upload
Finally a new vid 🤙🏼
I Love your voice I subscribed 😊
I saw a movie and documentary on him. They were both informing and sad.
Brave man he died for the truth
R.I.P Gary Webb
thank You for your work!....
Gary Webb is a LEGEND!
Yes he is
Great video, o look forward to more
The War on Drugs - Lost
The War on Poverty - Lost
The War on Cancer - Lost
The War on Terror - Draw
The War on Hunger - ???
The War for Education - Lost
The War on Child Trafficking - Lost
The war on terrorism will always be a loss...but those other "wars" could easily be won
War on Terror = Lost. United States officials created the war on terror. If they're genuine at fighting it, then they first need to stop participating in it.
That was the best explanation of this I ever heard.
Yay you are back. Thanks for another great video
This is great docu journalism. I like your style
They made a movie about him it's called kill a messenger
Free all whistleblowers and truthers ✊ Jail the war criminals ✊
We need more Journalist like this.
If Gary Webb had the benefit of todays internet this would have been the story of the century.
Back in the 90's there was a older couple that had a large piece of property above the Camarillo Plains (north of Los Angeles, CA) in the Santa Monica Mountains. The National Park Service offered to buy their land on numerous occasions, but the couple declined.
Supposedly, the man had been seen on numerous occasions buying things in Malibu with $100 bills and the authorities used this specious "evidence" to get a search warrant for his property which was raided by multiple agencies early one morning.
The man, hearing a commotion outside his home (it's dark outside) came to the door with a firearm and the officers shot and killed him. The search turned up nothing illegal...
This is our government coveting the land (To add to Santa Monica National Recreation Area) the couple owned; wanting to seize it using the laws at the time and killed an innocent man in the process. Frightening to consider.
