Don't smoke in public (stupid) ... My first Cop experience

Now before I begin to tell my story, I'd like to say I've always thought smoking in public is extremely sketchy and not cool. An easy and stupid way to get caught. The way things turned out last night was extremely lucky. And the cop couldn't have told me enough, I could have been in jail last night. I'm only 16 and never caused much trouble at all.

So I had my best friend over from out of town and we decided we wanted to go to a movie and smoke behind the theater. I have never done that before....but I was just like whatever. So we got there....we both had our pipes......and quite a bit of dank. We walked to the back of the theater looking for places to smoke....We decided to go all the way to the back of the lot and smoke. Dumb. Security guy comes out as were were packing and tells us we need to go in the movie or leave. We told him we were gonna go into the movie.

Instead we walk over a few parking lots in another plaza and start packing again. We see a civilian SUV pull up about 100 feet away. We just thought it was a family or something going somewhere. But a conservative looking dude gets out and walks toward us. I tell my friend and he just walks away. I honestly thought it was the security guy again. But it was a different guy.

He asked

"You guys smoking some pot out here"

I say "Maybe"

"So if I search you I could find some incriminating stuff"

"yes, sir"

"Well guess what", he pulls out something....Scariest moment of my life....I thought it was handcuffs. But he says "I'm a sheriff and If I wanted I could take you to jail, do you want to go to jail tonight?"

"ofcourse not, I better call my dad", thinking I'd be arrested there and then.

But the next moments were some of the biggest moments of relief I have ever experienced.

"Well I could take you to jail, but I want you guys to leave"

"Can we go to our movie?"

"No, just get out of here before I change my mind"

I shake his hand and say thank you.

I got extremely lucky........

But I want to know what you guys think....did I handle it well for my first time having a run in with a cop? Is it stupid to smoke in public at all?

I now, will never smoke in public again, never!

I'd also like to note that after this I have decided to stay sober for at least 3 weeks.

huh... did he have a badge or anything to prove he was a sheriff?
I'm just curious.

Yeah he pulled out his badge and he definitely was a sheriff.

i always smoke wereever i want, i smoke spliffs like ciggys. I'll light them up were i want when i want in front of who i want ive never been arrested for anything related to drugs and i hardly ever get stopped by swines who smell what im smoking and when i do i just keep toking till its gone. If you look dodgy and think of it as being serious u have a bigger chance of getting cought, if i look worried when they catch you they'd feed u full of shit.

i walk down less busy streets blazing all the time, i usually am wearing a hoody and using a bowl, if any car drives by i just put my thumb over my bowl and my hands in my hoody, and it doesnt look suspicious at all.

Haha. I smoke during third period everyday at school. I have PE and all we do is walk the track.

thats tight man, i wish i could do that.

first of all dont quit for 3 weeks cuz getting caught gave u a reality check on life or w/e. ur minding ur buisness in a secluded area smoking marijuana not harming anyone. there was nothing wrong with what u were doing. ye its illegal, but how r we going to make it legal by sittin on our fat american asses and obeying every little thing police tell us like a bunch of sheep. keep smoking. peace and pot.

amen brotha! he, yea, when i toke up, i dont feel like im doing somthing wrong, im not doing anything to anyone, and marijuana has had a positive impact on my life. so fuck the police.
