Arrested on LSD!

[oiseau777]

Here's a crazy story:
1989. I was hanging out in my pad in Venice, CA. smoking, drinking and taking LSD. I was with a bunch of hippies and this one friend from my hometown who was not a hippy.

Anyway, the LSD starts kicking in real strong and all the hippies are like, "Let's go frolic on the beach!" SO off they go. My friend is tripping but doesn't want to frolic with hippies so he suggests that we drive to this bar and see some band. Despite my objections I go with him. He's driving his car and it's like two days before New Years and those Cali Cops are on the lookout!

Well, unbeknownst to me, his car has a headlight out. So a cop sees us and pulls us over right in front of the club we wanted to go to (and it has an outdoor patio so everyone's watching).

Anway, the cop asks my friend to get out of the car. I'm thinking they will never arrest us, we're not drunk, but then the cop comes over to me and asks me to get out of the car (I was making origami with a gum wrapper). She shines a flashlight in my eyes and then throws on the handcuffs!

We are thrown in the holding cell where we hang out tripping our brains out for six hours! We meet loads of drunk drivers (pretty scary).
The cops make me take a pee test at which time I say to them, "You know, if you've never taken LSD I think you should. It would really lighten you up a bit." They didn't like that too much.

Anyway, my friend was all pissed off (even though it was his fault) and he hired a lawyer for $1500 and showed up at the court date only to find the charges were dropped.
I didn't do any of that and just left the state. I knew LSD didn't show up in urine and there would be no case against me.

All and all it may not have been frolicing on beach but it sure was more memorable!

I think he was charged with Driving Under the Influence. I was charged with Being Under The Influence.

I told the cop, "I didn't know taking LSD was a crime?"

When I got arrested for possession of marijuana, I asked the cop if he had ever gotten high...he didnt like that too much either.

when i got arrested high, the cop and i sat in his patrol car and talked about smoking and watching movies for like an hour... then i went to jail

I didnt know you could be arrested for being under the influence of drugs, just for driving on them, having them on you, selling, etc. But it must have been some crazy adventure.
