 DRCNet
is pleased to offer as our latest membership gift the new DVD from
Law Enforcement Against Prohibition (LEAP). As Walter Cronkite wrote in a
testimonial for the video, "Anyone concerned about the failure
of our $69 billion-a-year War on Drugs should watch this
12-minute program. You
will meet front line, ranking police officers who give us a
devastating report on why it cannot work. It is a must-see for any
journalist or public official dealing with this
issue."
 Donate $16
or more to DRCNet, and we will send you a copy of the LEAP video
-- perfect for showing at a meeting, in a public viewing at your
nearest library, or at home for friends or family who don't yet
understand. Please visit
https://stopthedrugwar.org/donate/
to make your donation and order your LEAP DVD today -- consider
signing up to donate monthly!
If you
can't afford the $16, make us an offer, we'll get the video to
you if we can. But please
only ask this if you truly aren't able to donate that
amount. Our ability to
get the word out about important products like the LEAP DVD
depends on the health and reach of our network, and that depends
on your donations. Please
consider donating more than the minimum too -- $50, $100, $250
-- whatever you are able to spare to the cause. The cause is important -- as
former Seattle police chief Norm Stamper expressed it in the
video, "The Drug War has arguably been the single most
devastating, dysfunctional social policy since
slavery."
