I've been watching the recent posts griping about our legal dilema/challenge,
and couldn't agree more with all of you. It is ridiculous that someone can tell
their physician that they want to be transexual, and receive injections of female hormones
to grow breasts, and go as far as having surgery to carve up and resculpt their
genetalia, but ask the same doc for Anavar or Deca and he'll look at you like
you've asked him to smuggle heroine and sell it to pre-schoolers. The media portrays
A.S. as if they are the deadliest substance known to man, and the government tightens
its grip every day via customs, DEA, and local law enforcement. Whats really sad is that
our way of fighting back, is we sit on our little clandestine board tucked away on the
Web, and trade advice and sources, hoping and praying that Big Brother isn't watching.
I'm not blasting the Board- It is by far surpasses any magazine or textbook on these
subjects that I have ever seen- but we are all Warriors. How is it that as serious
strength trainers- individuals who know what working through real physical and mental
pain means, individuals who know how to strive to overcome obstacles, that we allow
ourselves to be cornered and subjugated to this shit!!! If Joe Shmoe walked up to you
in the gym and took your bag (with your Deca and Dbol in it) and started extoling
the dangers of roids, you'd kick his ass, and take your gear back. So how do we do this
with Washington. Aids lobbyists fight for special legal loopholes to bypass FDA,
Tax protesters (although largely unsuccessful so far) have lobbys and groups that push
their agenda on government and offer legal defense to those who believe that an
income tax is unconsitutional and refuse to pay it. Why can't we form a similar group?
Are their any lawyers, paralegals, govt types, anyone involved in other govt protest or
lobby actions on this board with any ideas as to how we can do this. Maybe I'm niave,
but while I continue my clandestine efforts to enhance my physique and athletic capability
It would be great if we could all get together and fight back- even if its
as small an effort as coordinating a mass e-mailing to our representatives in congress.
Maybe if we choke their server with flame for a week, someone will notice.
I can drink till I quite literally poison myself, I can smoke ten packs a day, I
can take half a bottle of aspirin a day until I hemorrage, and I can even request
that my sexuality be reversed hormonally and surgically all without
government interference but If I want to take A.S. I've got the full weight of FDA,
CUSTOMS,DEA, DEPT of JUSTICE, and Local Law Enforcement against me. Their spending
your and my money to do this. HOW DO WE DO SOMETHING ABOUT IT? LETS SUBMIT SOME IDEAS
AS FOLLOW UP POSTS, PICK A FEW AND TRY THEM OUT. SORRY FOR THE LONG POST, BUT I JUST
CAN'T SIT STILL FOR IT ANYMORE!
