I Hate to Say I told You So

Bert Tathum returned from Dubai today.As I predicted,He started Whining the moment the plane touched down."Why didn't they give me a break",cries Bert.Now remember,Berts a drug cop that got caught with .06 grammes of Hash in his pocket.I'd be very surprised if this guy ever gave any one a break in his life.What Bert calls,"my work",is destroying peoples lives for their choice of intoxicants.Bert would have us believe that .06 grammes of hashish were in his pocket as a leftover from his "work" in Afghanistan.I've worked on some pretty decent black afghani myself and I can tell you if I was caught,I'd do my time and shut my mouth.Not Bert.Bert doesn't get it.He thinks a drug cop should have immunity.The guy did 9 months total on a four year sentence.Instead of whining,he should be kissing the ground he stands on and be grateful he lives in a country with semi-reasonable drug laws.(comparatively speaking that is)

New LEAPEE?

Bert should now be joining up with LEAP. He's a definite candidate for LawEnforcementAgainstProhibition if I've seen one. Converts can get a break.

LEAPEE

sicntired@mac.com Vancouver,B.C. Canada The guys at leap have seen it done it and are sick of it.So sick they suffer ridicule and all kinds of crap from the "true believers".To come out from behind the blue wall and speak the truth takes guts.Mr Tathum is a gutless coward that wouldn't fit in well with LEAP.I've spent a good portion of my life in prison.All cops are not swine.
