I didn't say they were DEA statistics. But the DEA did put the "95%" statistic on its website, crediting the Tennessee DA's Association or whatever it is. They had a big banner on their page complete with a link to the Meth is Death website. The statistics may not be theirs, but obviously they don't have a problem parroting the statistics. If they didn't want people to believe the statistics were true, why did they blast one of them across one of their web page and link people to the page with the rest of the statistics? Looks to me like they are approving and adopting these claims.

Your complaint is that the DEA have a site with a banner ad linking to another site belonging to someone else who have a quote containing language you've already interpreted two different ways?

Pretty thin straw. And it gets even thinner.

The quote on the banner ad actually says:

95% of those who try Meth "just one time" get hooked for life.

Beam. Mote.
