LEAP volunteers are fighting the good fight and it is good to see that some in law enforcement understand the human tragedy and financial cost of the failed war on drugs.
These people will send a cop to your function to speak out against prohibition. Pretty cool!
I applaud these members of law enforcement who truly want to "protect and serve". :cop:
Way to go guys! :yay:
LEAP Vision & Mission Statement
Vision & Mission
Vision Statement
LEAP envisions a world in which drug policies work for the benefit of society and keep our communities safer. A system of legalization and regulation will end the violence, better protect human rights, safeguard our children, reduce crime and disease, treat drug abusers as patients, reduce addiction, use tax dollars more efficiently, and restore the publics respect and trust in law enforcement.
Mission Statement
The mission of LEAP is to reduce the multitude of harmful consequences resulting from fighting the war on drugs and to lessen the incidence of death, disease, crime, and addiction by ending drug prohibition.
LEAPs goals are: (1) To educate the public, the media and policy makers about the failure of current drug policy by presenting a true picture of the history, causes and effects of drug use and the elevated crime rates more properly related to drug prohibition than to drug pharmacology and (2) To restore the publics respect for police, which has been greatly diminished by law enforcements involvement in imposing drug prohibition.
LEAPs main strategy for accomplishing these goals is to create a constantly growing speakers bureau staffed with knowledgeable and articulate current and former drug-warriors who describe the impact of current drug policies on: police/community relations; the safety of law enforcement officers and suspects; police corruption and misconduct; and the excessive financial and human costs associated with current drug policies.
