Ex-Cop Sells Pot Tips on DVD
http://www.newsday.com/news/nationworld/wire/sns-ap-pot-cop,0,4840827.story?coll=sns-ap-nationworld-headlines
BIG SANDY, Texas -- Barry Cooper sells a DVD on how to stash pot in your car without getting caught. This fall he will release a second one on how to keep police from raiding your home for marijuana.

Now for the kicker: Cooper is a former narcotics officer once considered among the top cops in Texas, where more marijuana is seized each year than in any other state.

The formerly straight-laced lawman has become a shaggy-haired militant for the legalization of weed.

Six months ago he released "Never Get Busted Again," in which the former star of West Texas' Permian Basin Drug Task Force gives tips on hiding marijuana (dashboards are rife with nooks and crannies) and throwing off drug-sniffing dogs (coat your tires in fox urine).

"I'm not helping them to break the law. It's clear the law is already being broken," said Cooper, 38, who left law enforcement a decade ago. "I will do anything legal to frustrate law enforcement's efforts to place American citizens in jail for nonviolent drug offenses."

1. Good luck to him
I mean it in the best possible way - the cops will try to bust him.


He has a target on his front and back now. :(

5. Where does one get fox urine?
I wonder what else fox urine could be applied?
