  http://www.leap.cc/cms/index.php?nam...article&sid=75   SEATTLE, WA -- A Mountlake Terrace police sergeant who was fired after publicly criticizing the "war on drugs" has reached an $812,500 settlement in a lawsuit he filed against the city and police department, among others. Under the settlement, Sergeant Jonathan Wender has been reinstated on the force and is eligible to receive back pay and full retirement benefits.  
I salute you, sir.

			ive found a lot of police officers have no issues with drugs and the dealers what they hate are the dealers who are violent either to the public or the users who buy from them

I salute you, sir. |  Question:  
Why do you salute this police sergeant and call him a hero for being honest on the whole cops vs dealers, yet call a kid who is honest about money he found a "dumb fuck"?  
Cheers.

			I wish more cops would come out in the open about this subject, instead of worrying about persacusion or the chance of losing their jobs.
 Well done Sir.

			You know if they ended the war on drugs what it would do for they MASSIVE deficit in the US... They would for sure put a nice dent in it... Anything that is called a "WAR on ______" always fails and costs 10's if not hundreds of billions hell even trillions of dollars in some cases...
