Black Tuna: Out of the Can
Wed, Sep 23, 2009 5:59 pm
After serving 29 years as a nonviolent first-time offender, the most celebrated marijuana smuggler of the ’70s talks for the very first time about bringing in multi-ton shipments of Colombian weed, the joint DEA-FBI investigation that took him down, his decades as a celebrity prisoner, and how he’s putting his life back together by working with the marijuana-legalization movement.

...the way the DEA-FBI agents like to play lil' boy games, making up 'code words.' "Got yer Howdy Doody secret de-scrambler rings on ya boys, we're goin' in!"
...the distinction he points out, between grower/seller and smoker...hypocrisy within hypocrisy, all grown right here in America.
...the relationships he had with the people he dealt with, genuine, good, not the 'dark and spooky' image of the nightly news.
Good stuff. Keep it coming.
