  • Ron Paul agrees with you. Vote Ron Paul 2012.

  • It's about the truth too. Marijuana is medicine and we continue to be lied to about that for the financial benefit of companies that are supposed to be helping patients not blocking good medicine because they can't patent it!!

    big pharma is evil indeed, fuck em

  • @thefakeyeti Remember I'm a member of LEAP since 2003(I remember talking to Jack Cole at his home phone before they had a website). My point is/was choose your career path based on your principals, not because it comes with a retiring age of 45 y.o. with 100% taxpayer funded pension and the rest of the benefit package(which, I guarantee you, is more then what 95% of private sector citizens can expect). LEAP is great-but the paradigm NEEDS to expand to stop new drug warrior recruits.

  • MALUM PROHIBITUM.

  • @markarich159

    Do you really expect that kid've selflessness from ANYONE?

    "Screw my pension" or "screw my job" equates to, to hell with my spouse, to hell with securing a future for my children...

    Retired is good enough, if anyone that is optimal because they got all the experience, instead of cutting it short

  • Or, even better, how about; knowing what at least 60+% of your arrests are going to be(I.e. nonviolent drug arrests); choose a different career path.

  • I am a member of LEAP & have been since the early days. The ONE gripe I have is that it all seems a bit too little, FAR too late. Where we're you guys before your fully taxpayer funded pensions were secured. We need CURRENT LE Officers with the integrity to say, "screw my pension, this is wrong

  • Ron Paul

  • The 'War on Drugs' is an industry like the "War on Terror". Both are tools to divert funds and tools to bring us into full martial law. Daily, our civil liberties are taken away in the name of protection. Soon we will have no rights unless we wake up now.

  • You stupid Law Enforcement agents trying to arrest people for natural medicine. The government is the reason why people turn to drugs, then they blame the people.

  • My sentiments exactly...
