Exclusive | Ex-Navy SEAL Robert O'Neill - who killed Osama bin Laden - set to peddle pot in NYC: 'Helps get rid of the noise'
Briefly

Robert O'Neill, known for killing Osama bin Laden, is now entering the cannabis market as the owner of Operator Canna Co. He aims to assist veterans suffering from PTSD through marijuana. O'Neill intends to donate a percentage of his revenue to support disabled veterans. While he initially avoided drugs in the military due to strict policies, he now advocates for cannabis's role in promoting better societal discourse and peace. His business debut in New York City symbolizes a significant personal and professional transformation after a decorated military career.
"I wanted to get into the cannabis business through my experience in the military and watching vets suffer from things like post-traumatic stress disorder," O'Neill stated.
"If we take cannabis, we can have better conversations. We have the potential for world peace right here," he remarked, highlighting his belief in cannabis's potential social benefits.
"One of the general rules in the military is 'zero tolerance,'" O'Neill acknowledged, reflecting on the strict conditions regarding drug use during his service.
"I thought that would be my last day on Earth: We're going to kill him, and he's going to kill us," O'Neill recalled, expressing the gravity of the mission.
