  • "In Damage done : the drug war odyssey, we meet a group of maverick cops and former cops who have put in decades fighting the war on drugs. They may be Libertarians, republicians, socialists, or evanelical christians, but what they all have in common is a strong belief that drug prohibition is a terrible mistake. They believe that all illicit drugs should be in the hands of government, not under the control of criminals. John Gayder, a currently employed constable of nearly twenty years is our guide to the world of pro-legalization cops. Among this group is the legendary Frank Serpico - the man who blew the whistle on corruption in the New York Police Department, and who was shot in the face for his efforts. Then there's retired police captain Peter Christ; he spent twenty years enforcing drug laws before co-founding the group "LEAP : Law Enforcement Against Prohibition". There's Howard Wooldridge, who rode his horse Misty across America in a cowboy hat and a t-shirt that says "Cops say Legalize Drugs. Ask me why". These are only a few of the men who twell us their incredible stories."@en
