Former Texas agent teaches how to hide, stash, and fool drug officers

Cooper, who said he favors the legalization of marijuana, made the video in part because he believes the nation’s fight against drugs is a waste of resources. Busting marijuana users fills up prisons with nonviolent offenders, he said.

“My main motivation in all of this is to teach Americans their civil liberties and what drives me in this is injustice and unfairness in our system,” Cooper told the newspaper.

…

News of the video has angered authorities, including Richard Sanders, an agent with the Tyler Drug Enforcement Agency. Sanders said he plans to investigate whether the video violates any laws.

“It outrages me personally as I’m sure it does any officer that has sworn an oath to uphold the laws of this state, and nation,” Sanders said. “It is clear that his whole deal is to make money and he has found some sort of scheme, but for him to go to the dark side and do this is infuriating.”

What is infuriating is that no one in the government questions STUPID FUCKING LAWS!  They continually try to box life with law after law after law, trying to build an artificial wall around reality to 'keep us safe'…from ourselves!  

Sworn oath to uphold the laws of blah blah blah YOU FUCKING COCKSUCKER.  Show me a cop that doesn't break traffic laws on a regular basis and I'll show you a cop that has EARNED HIS DOUGHNUT.  

Sorry if I'm a little irate, I've been the victim of illegal search and seizure as a teenager, and interrogated without access to council (also as a teenager)…cops will bend (and break) the law any time they can to 'enforce' the law, when it should be the absolute opposite:  the police should be the avatars of the law, the living embodiment of virtue, honesty and public service.  Instead…you get shit like this and this (ok, the second isn't really the cops fault, but you know they blindly enforce good laws and bad).

UPDATE: I guess I should note, in an effort to at least appear fair and balanced, that the three other times I had been pulled over by state and local cops who were the model of professionalism.  Once, for speeding on 220 (my one and only speeding ticket), once for having a 'discombobulated inspection sticker' (quickly cleared up), and once because I drove through a checkpoint and the cops were certain I had been drinking at a local party they were trying to bust (they quickly learned, at the back of my truck, with me surrounded by about six uniformed officers, that I was certainly NOT drunk…what they didn't learn (and for which I'll eternally be grateful for) was that I was as high as a kite, had a mini-bong in the door pocket of the truck (I think a larger one under the seat), and one pants pocket was bulged with empty candy wrappers, the other with a balled up empty baggie, contacts in, eyes must have been red like meatballs…I guess I was lucky they were looking so hard for one thing, when I stepped out of the truck with perfect balance, poise and had my shit together, I knocked THEM off guard…

But, one bad apple spoiled the whole damn bunch, for me…
