Talk:Freeway Ricky Ross

message: I removed that section on Iran-Contra etc. because, not only was it not substantiated, the text itself stated that that section contained highly speculative and unsubstantiated facts.  Any section starting with "Many people believe..." is going to be troublesome per WP:Verify.  —The preceding unsigned comment was added by Deville (talk • contribs) .
Yes, it is unsubstantiated but that is because it is a theory. Are you going to try to remove all conspiracy theories from wikipedia? The fact that this theory is a popular one means that it has a place in the article. Wousifou7 18:40, 12 March 2006 (UTC)

message: There's certainly no shortage of evidence to substantiate the claims made in the section.  If anything, I think that one would contend that it holds back too much given the Commission report & the CIA internal investigation report.  I've labelled it as needing citation, however, which I feel is appropriate.
Yes, it's somewhat shocking for those who aren't familiar with the history (the concept that the Reagan Administration would use drug money to fund an illegal terrorist war See Nicaragua v. United States'), but it happens to be backed by overwhelming documentary evidence.  So, let's be cautious about deleting content -- even if it's one's natural kneejerk reaction -- without first doing the necessary research.
