WTF?!? The Elites Really Don't Want Us to Have This! Why?

% of readers think this story is Fact. Add your two cents.


It’s banned in six states and three American cities but still legal — for now — as far as the feds are concerned.

Kratom is the controversial herbal supplement you might not know about.

Fans who take kratom in capsule form or drink it in tea say it can can alleviate a host of ills. Some say it is a natural cure for opioid withdrawal symptoms; federal health officials say that is not true.

Federal authorities cracked down this week on kratom sellers as talk arose again of making it illegal at the federal level.

The drug agency is “still waiting for analysis” before taking that step, special agent Melvin Patterson of the Drug Enforcement Administration told KIRO in Seattle this week.

The DEA has already considered designating kratom a Schedule 1 drug, which would effectively ban it.

Federal concerns about health risks and potential abuse of the supplement manifested in a public health advisory from the Food and Drug Administration last year that said the FDA was aware of reports of 36 deaths associated with the use of products containing kratom.

“There’s clear data on the increasing harms associated with kratom,” the advisory said. “Calls to U.S. poison control centers regarding kratom have increased 10-fold from 2010 to 2015, with hundreds of calls made each year.”

This week, the U.S. Food and Drug Administration sent letters to three kratom sellers, including one in Kansas City, warning about marketing “kratom products for, among other things, the treatment or cure of opioid addiction and withdrawal symptoms.”

      oddly i cannot locate ANY constitutional authority for the FDA, FBI, DEA etc etc etc to exist, nor can I locate their constitutionally authorized jurisdiction.. since there is less than zero constitutional authority or jurisdiction for these fraudulent entities to even exist, we know there is no constitutional authority for any of these FAKE AND FRAUDULENT ENTITIES THAT MASQUERADE AS LEGITIMATE GOVERNMENT AGENCIES TO SCHEDULE OR ENFORCE A DAMN THING!

        The so-called ‘elite and educated people like to pull one over you plebes. Yeah, for real. Seen it happen all the time in little things with anyone who thinks he is your “overlord”.

        Bullsh it you and all that. The same with these guys up there. Pharking LIARS.

        It’s a real problem. You just gotta develop fangs instead of molars. Then they back off, and even run away when your buddies show up.

        People just got to wake up, grow some fangs to get these monkeys off your back. The problem is a large majority of people want masters. Brown skins and Negroes are the worst.

        That’s why they want them here by the millions by the gadzillions. :roll:
