Well, I have mondays off and with noone home and the house to myself all day long I enjoy a nice day of highness. Chill out or whatever. But this one Monday it happened to be so nice and warm outside I couldnt wait to sit out in the sun and spark up a bong. Generally I smoke in my car which is in the car port because there is no wind or anything like that. So I packed my first bowl and started tokin down, finished that packed another and finished that too. Packed my third one and im getting close to halfway through smoking and I think to mysel 'man this was pretty packed' and as I was looking at it I notice someone out the side of my vision. Turn my head and theres a fucking cop right there. He proceeds to ask me what my name is and asks for id. Being as wasted as I was I comply without any fuss. He then tells me he was checking up on some convict or something and he got given the wrong address. He didn't even say much about the pot even though he blatently knew what I was doing he just told me it was a nice day to relax and he went on with his buisness. WTF?!??!!?!?!?!?!?!?!?!?!!? This was quite sometime ago and whenever I tell people they never believe me. I didnt have much on me like about 2grams at most. But still!!!! Weed is still illegal where I live and you can still be charged and convicted with possession. But you gotta have shit luck to be convicted of it. Still scares the shit out of me everytime I sit on my step suckin back that bong.
cool man a lot of cops are actually chill as fuck its just all the bullshit they deal with makes em uneasy but still fuck daaa po-lice
a cop that isnt on a power trip. he understood that you werent harming anyone, just enjoying your own relaxing day.
too much paperwork involved with busting a single stoner compared to looking for a convict i guess... at least he has his priorities in order
There are police out there who wont bother you if you're not bothering anyone else Enjoyed the story.
Something similar happened to me, went to blaze with a couple other buddies but word got out so we ended up at this spot with like 8 heads. We had maybe 2 pipes and a bong going around when a cop pulls up on us. We were all pretty paranoid at this point, but the cop explained that there were reports of car theives using this spot to meet up at. He pretended to sound like a total asshole but in the end he let us go without confiscating anything so it was all good ^^ Most people generalize or assume too much about cops even though everyone, regardless of what they do, is just another human being. Some are chill, some are dicks that's how it goes.
Alot of cops are just glad your doin it at home Its almost like they got their way by keepin you from doin it on the streets. When i got caught in local park parking lot the cop gave me my friends bong back and told me to smoke on my back porch from now on. Never searched a single thing just asked questions which i answered truthfully after he heard me throw and shatter a pipe as he was pulling up lol prolly figured that was damage enough
My story's not really with cops, but people who could've done shit. Me and 2 homies go over to his house to toke after school on Friday. Right as we pull up to his driveway, his parents lawn guys show up. My one friend is freaking out about how they're going to bust us, I'm telling him to relax as I get out of the car with my huge as steamroller, and my other friend is just ignoring it. So we go out to his back padio and pack a couple bowls. My friend is still freaking out, and my other friend isn't saying shit (but I think he was nervous they would tell his mom). ANYWAY I was in the middle of a hit when the main guy came around and laughed and said "Don't mind us we're just the grass guys". And then as I exhaled smoke into his face, I said "HAHA So are we!" I wish we had some more weed, but we had just ran out, otherwise we would have offered a bowl....
I don't think cops are out looking for stoned people all day. They know that weed is harmless and they would rather deal with real criminals than a few young people smoking a bowl. Maybe I'm jaded since I live in Cali.
Just as everyone else prior to me has said, some cops are very cool when it comes to weed. But then again, if you had run into officer a-hole, who just happened to be having a bad day up to that point, could have just as easily written you a ticket or spruced up the charge and hauled you in right there on the spot. Who's to say you didn't have a ball of hash that you chucked over the fence that he was unable to retrieve? It's his word against yours. Unlikely, maybe. But, we all know it happens. Bottom line, yes there are cool cops who don't give a crap about weed and we need more cops like that dude out there. Maybe then ALL cops would treat marijuana like medicine and not like crack. Nice story, none the less.
damn dude, you got lucky. One of the few cops that dont abuse their power. Honestly if you ask me though one of your neighbors probably saw you and he got called in on it, saw that your werent doing anything bad just smoking bowls so he let you off. not all the police are bad, just the ones that abuse their power cause everybody to stereotype cops.
that cop was doing a good job. He saw that you wern't hurting anyone and knew that he had something more important to do that involved the actual saftey of other people. To all cops, get the bad guys, not harmless pot smokers.
Not doubting your story but how did you know he was a cop? Was he dressed as one or did he ID himself?
he was in full uniform, the cops on my country have to do other things aswell, following up an investigation and what not detectives tend to stick with homocides and what not but even still i have heard of constables following up that sorta shit.
