I wouldn’t assume anything the “press” states is “true” EVER. All perceptions (important ones) are easily controlled now. People are easily bought off. When you have trillions of dollars, it is quite easy, especially since morality has been driven out of people by schools and media for decades. People today have very weak characters compared with 30 years ago.

Beck is the only one now that I take as “maybe” true since he controls “what” he says without answering to anyone. BUT, where does “his” information come from——it may be planted, like all important “news”. He even knows that. Beck is careful of his sources-—but even a “coroners” report could be myth.

Like Breitbart’s coroner——http://rt.com/usa/coroner-arsenic-death-breitbart-456/

The press releases/coroner reports/judges have been bought off or killed. This has been happening for 100 years-—all major publishing companies have been controlled since early 1900’s. They can plant any drugs on anyone—or whatever-—The NWO has put trillions in their Progressive movement and Hastings was on the verge of releasing “Truth”. Whoever dares put out the “Truth” will end up like Socrates.....it is the nature of “Truth” since the beginning of time.

As Machiavelli stated, truth will gain more hatred than lies. The NWO is close to accomplishing their plan of controlling every aspect of America and they will not let their plan be thwarted.

There is proof of a hundred years of controlled biased news to shape perceptions of the masses. Scientists have been killed to keep myths alive, as have Presidents/Captains and Kings and professors/Business men have been destroyed in the Alinsky-manner, if they dare go off the reservation.

If government/Stasi is after you-—you will be paranoid and frightened-—you would be dumb if you weren’t. All I know-—is that there was a very good reason to silence Hastings. I don’t believe in coincidences-—as FDR stated-—nothing happens by accident in politics.

“The guy had problems...”

Apparently... And Uncle Sugar knew all about those ‘problems’.

And seeing as the government now feels like they own every American. And they have access to all personal history, medical records, personal and professional correspondence, every phone call and text. It wouldn’t be hard to come up with something to either blackmail and threaten someone or use their past and/or present against them to its own advantage.

You really don’t need to take their word for it when his own family has admitted he was using again and they were trying to get him into rehab. Or do you think the family was “in on it” too?

Amphetamines can’t stay in your system for weeks though. So he used that drug recently, probably within hours before the crash. Most amphetamine users don’t go too long between doses either.

The coroners report stated ‘prior, but not recent usage’.

If you smoke pot the metabolites are stored in your fat. If you lose even a little weight you can have a positive test for smoking pot 6m after you’ve smoked any.

Just sayin.

‘prior but not recent’ doesn’t sound like an immediate problem.

pot takes the edge of the meth. As a very long recovering addict (26 years), addicts begin to live a life of balancing themselves out by substances as the highs and lows of intense drugs are so extreme and addicts are so unhealthy it is all about what substance will calm or give them e nervy. It is a vicious cycle.

Yep, that’s what this place is coming to. The mods might as well allow posting of Alex Jones material, because letting this kind of cuckoo conspiracy mongering proliferate in the comments section is no better.

But I read that the body was “unrecognizable” and badly charred.

He had a freaking “Medical Marijuana” prescription card, so I think it’s safe to say he was a regular user of marijuana. On top of that, amphetamines do not stay in your system for months, so you cannot claim that it was not recent usage of those drugs. His own family has admitted he relapsed and they were trying to get him into rehab. Give it up already.

Odd combination? I don’t know of many pot smokers who also do meth? Talk about your extreme opposites?

Are you kidding? Pot is common to all dopers, addicts and winos.

Give what up?

I’m just stating what the coroner’s report said:

‘prior, but not recent usage’

Where did you read about a medical marijuana card?

Cite please.

How convenient.

All you have to do is say "meth" and all suspicions he may have raised will go away...just like he did.

Maybe the report is legit, maybe it isn't, but is the government who writes that report and puts it in our national dialog legit?

What was journalist Michael Hastings scared of?

Its not the drug findings that are in question. The real question is why did officials cremate the body against the family’s wishes.

(Putting on tinfoil hat here)

Did the cremation forever destroy evidence that Hasting’s accident was no ‘accident’?

There are lots of FReerpers and others here who laugh at conspiracy theories and point out ‘facts’ relevant to the crash.

All I’m saying is that if you believe the official version of the “facts”, then I’ve got a bridge to sell you.

Ever hear of a “speedball”?

Is that the same as something called “8 Ball”?

***
Is it not entirely possible that this guy was imagining a lot of persecution or danger just because he was under the influence of drugs?

Not that I would put anything past the Soros Administration....

"Give what up?"

Trying to rationalize away this man's drug use?

"I’m just stating what the coroner’s report said:"

Well, not really. You're stating a snippet that paints a more favorable picture than the whole report. Here's more of what the coroner's report said:

"Social Hx including polysubstance use, with report decedent had been smoking marijuana the night prior. He was also believed as using DMT (Hallucinogenic). Family had just arrived from New York the day prior, attempting to get decedent to go to rehab."

"Upon inquiry, believed decedent was currently using DMT (hallucinogenic), confirming use of marijuana, as well - ID card found in decedent's wallet. The medical marijuana was believed as prescribed for PTSD, as decedent was a war journalist, having had assignments in Iraq, Afghanistan, and Baghdad a few years ago."

"There was also mention of a past traffic collision in which decedent collided into a pole several years ago, believed as under the influence at the time, with report decedent had been misusing Ritalin at about this time; at one point, he was believed to have been bi-polar; however, it was later learned his behavior was actually stemming from the Ritalin misuse."

Note the medical marijuana prescription ID that was found in his wallet is mentioned in the coroner's reports.

“Its not the drug findings that are in question. The real question is why did officials cremate the body against the family’s wishes.”

Of course that’s what you fall back on, once all the other kooky propositions are debunked. Who cares? If there is no conspiracy to begin with, then your evidence of a “cover-up” means nothing at all.

Was it a conspiracy the first time that Hastings got loaded and drove his car into a pole? Or did he manage to pull that one off himself?
