According to this test, then, I was in possession of Hashish! I guess Amazing Grass really is amazing, huh? It can morph from chocolate to illegal drugs in an instant! (My apologies to Amazing Grass for this demo. Their product contains absolutely no illicit drugs, and in fact, I love their product. Visit them at www.AmazingGrass.com to enjoy their delicious superfood products.)

If this test had been conducted at the border, I could have been arrested, handcuffed to a chair in a jail cell, and subjected to ten hours of interrogation.

That's all it takes, folks: Just one person shaking this plastic test kit and believing he sees a "purple" or "bluish" color. And this is the test the border police are using to arrest raw foodies and charge them with felony crimes! Anything they don't recognize gets put to the NIK test, and just about everything I've found produces a similar result.

Here's another important point: Color is a SUBJECTIVE thing. One person might say it's dark blue, another could say it's brown, and a third could say it's purple. All it takes is one crack-smoking idiot with a badge to utter the word, "purple" and suddenly you're arrested at gunpoint, thrown into a jail cell and interrogated for ten hours. Welcome to the USA!

It is the belief of NaturalNews that the NIK Narcotics Identification products produce false positives or, at the very least, misleading results that are frequently misinterpreted by law enforcement authorities as positives. NaturalNews has learned that NIK drug tests show positive results for THC for all the following natural substances:

- Organic tea tree oil
- Frankincense oil
- CoQ10
- Raw chocolate

It is important to note that NIK tests carry zero weight in a court of law. But they have the power to arrest, and law enforcement authorities are now openly abusing that power, using these "false positive" to arrest and detain anyone they wish to target (such as raw foodies).


$22,000 in legal bills and growing

After being charged with felony crimes, accused of trafficking illegal drugs, interrogated, isolated from his family and denied the right to travel as a free citizen, Ron Obadia is now facing over $22,000 in legal bills.

Even after the real drug test conclusively proved there were NO drugs in the raw chocolate, there was no apology from Canadian law enforcement officials. No offer to reimburse Ron and Nadine for their legal expenses. They were simply let go and told to go home. Charges are still pending from the American side (they were about to board an international flight), and it may require another $10,000 in legal bills just to clear their names in America.

As a result, Ron and Nadine are virtual prisoners in their own country. Accused of crimes they did not commit, these raw foodies only committed the "crime" of daring to carry real food that wasn't packaged in a brand-name wrapper. At one point, one of the police officers screamed at Ron, saying, "If you wanted chocolate, why didn't you just buy a Snickers bar!" The proper answer to that question, of course, is so far beyond the intellect of typical law enforcement personnel that I won't even bother explaining it here. To these cops, Burger King is fine cuisine, candy bars are superfoods and hashish is anything that looks brown and unusual.

Ran and Nadine were never able to attend the Raw Spirit Festival. They spent the day being interrogated for crimes they did not commit.

Ron and Nadine desperately need your support to not just pay off their legal bills, but to sue Canadian law enforcement officials for false arrest.

Why the War on Drugs is out of control

What Ron and Nadine experienced here is just one symptom of a War on Drugs that's utterly out of control. While completely ignoring the real drug dealers (Big Pharma and psychiatrists who put kids on amphetamines), tyrannical law enforcement personnel target innocent natural health advocates who refuse to eat Snickers bars and Big Macs.

Carrying "unusual" food with you at the airport is now a crime that can get you thrown in jail and cost you $20,000 or more in legal bills. And that's when you're innocent!

The War on Drugs has done virtually nothing to stem the tide of illegal street drugs, but it's sure given lots of money and power to another group: The DEA and other drug enforcement tyrants whose careers (and paychecks) depend on continuing their politically-motivated crusade against innocents.

Marijuana arrests are out of control, with nearly 8 million Americans having been arrested for pot possession over the last decade (http://www.projectcensored.org/top-s...t-new-record/). Meanwhile, the U.S. spends between $10 and $12 billion a year enforcing those laws, and that doesn't count the exploding prison population, where now an astonishing 11 percent of all black men between the ages of 30 and 34 are in prison. (http://www.hrw.org/english/docs/2008...usdom19035.htm)

A startling 2.3 million Americans are sitting in prison cells right now, and many are there for victimless crimes such as smoking marijuana. And yet, amazingly, powerful institutions in society directly promote highly addictive drugs to virtually everyone:

- Daily caffeine through coffee and energy drinks for teens
- "Speed" amphetamines for children diagnosed with ADHD
- Highly addictive painkillers like Oxycotin, which are now openly abused by teens
- Over-the-counter cold medicines, now widely used to manufacture meth (crank, ice, etc.)

The real point to all of this, of course, is not to stop Americans from using drugs; it's to force Americans to use patented drugs that earn profits for powerful corporations. The job of the DEA is primarily to eliminate Big Pharma's competition by criminalizing non-patented drugs while protecting patented ones.

In order to concentrate power into their own hands, they must create fear and terrorize the population, which is why the DEA keeps raiding California medical marijuana clinics, by the way... even though they are legal in the State of California!
