Lets here some details on this story, i wanna hear the whole scenario
You must be coming down from your high and in a lazy/sleepy state, cause that story is in need of much more detail. :jointsmile:
hahahah yeah i hear the people saying we need more. Sounds like a really crazy night.
Sorry for the short post let me explain to the best of my ability.
Me and my best friend were just doing the normal thing smoking as we usually do every 2 hours or so. We were sitting at a place we've been going to for years smoking and my friend and I are just hanging out, in the middle of doing waterfalls.. On the 5th hit, I look over and there is a sheriff car pulled up extremely close. My buddy runs because we've previously discussed what we'd do.. [ This is the 2nd time we have gotten caught and only 2 times in the PAST 4 months or so.. We've been smoking for 5+ years ]. My ankle is messed up and I didn't have anything on me, so I stayed put. The sheriff told me to get on the ground so I did obviously I wasen't trying to fight you know, and my buddy took off. The sheriff got on top of me like he really didn't have to but whatever I guess it made him feel safe lol... He said he could smell weed. Called for back up.. My friend meanwhile is running through a swampy area, hid the weed in a stump and threw his jacket off to throw off the dogs.. I told the cops I didn't know him and I came here to go for a walk.. Little did I know [ or even consider, stupidly ] the last officer who didn't press charges still made a note of it in the police database proving that I know him.. Somewhere in the midst of all this [ took 3 hours total] I got read my rights.. I told the cop I wasen't going to talk anymore because I realized I may of messed up [ as flawless as it seemed ].. I said take me to jail for the weekend but I'll be out Monday cause I didn't do anything.. They repedatly tried to get me to say whos car it was [ my friends car was parked out side ].. I refused to say I knew who it was, not sure why they kept insisting me say his name but I made sure not to.. Anyway his car got impounded, not sure if the K9 unit hit on his car or not but that would play a factor I believe.. :wtf:
5 cops came to his house looking for him , they are really trippin obviously have nothing to do.. It's a misdemeaner obscuring a police officer and they blew it WAY out of proportion.. After throughly searching me 3 times they let me go. My buddy ran through a whole hell of a lot of stuff and got pretty scratched up but they didn't find him.. He even said he thought that he was fucked the helicopter was right over him but he made it out.. We met back up, went back there through an alternate entrance and retrieved the weed a few hours ago with flash lights.. lol. It may be time for a break from smoking for awhile, for the first time since I we started..
Me and this dude hang out all day and smoke between 3/4 an ounce- an ounce every week... the past few years, only out of waterfalls.. [one of the most conservative ways we have found to smoke], and years before that we were doing what ever kid does and gets super stoned [wish i could reach that level again] and act stupid. Don't know what it's like to not be high but it definatly seems like it will be a good thing.. Gotten a little controlling I just hope we come back, but if we don't it will obviously be for the better..
If i got anything to say don't move to a town where the cops don't have shit to do, or they will put their effort into stupid shit like trying to catch a bunch of kids.. It's just funny with a helicopter and K9 units, they still didn't find him, against the odds he got SOMEWHAT of a break but it was more of a reality check for both of us.. I thought I already had my reality check last time we sitting in a car being pursued in a high speed chase as high schoolers doing all kinds of stupid stuff and getting put manuvered.. Lol, no matter if you feel like you've aged from being a dumb ass kid, you can still get fucked and feel like a little kid doing stupid shit you KNOW you shouldn't of done.. Peace out guys and gals, I am going to bed!
man what a story! i would have stopped smoking for a sweet couple of months in such a case!Quote:

But me being the ultra conservative and overprotective person I am in means of dealing with law and risks of smoking, I have learned my lessons very early on that just ditch public place smoking... aint worth the hassle, not even in this town with all of its lack of manpower in police
glad u guys made it out tho, but your friend's gotta lay low for a good while since they have every information on him as u mentioned, his car, his personal data, his house, etc and when someone runs from police they automatically assume the guy has some kind of more serious issue on his history or somethin along those lines
I ran from police once in my life and in a similar situation but this was a foot/bicycle patrol guy in an apt complex right by a vast area of woods, passed 2 in the morning... i ran and jumped a wooden wall and i just didnt look back or think if he is after me or not, i just ran as fast as i could dropping all the contraband along the way, usually u start hearing sirens / dog barks or in your case a helicopter within a few minutes if they are serious about bustin ya
stay safe and wish your buddy lots of luck!
where on earth do you live? Thats the most excessive police response I have ever heard of related to weed
Why could they take you to jail, it doesn't sound like they had anything to charge you for
sounds like your friend may have some serious stuff on his record. why would you run, chances are in most places they catch you, then you get a whole extra charge for it. luckily he got away, though chances are had they found him, you would have been fine cause he stashed the weed, but still, other than that smart move i would not have ran personally.
Don't ya love when police go off like you're a terrorist with a bomb strapped to your chest for some bs charges.. Few weeks ago I was chillen in nyc. Not thinking about the area I am in (lots of undercover) I kinda flashed some herb while trying to find somehting in my pocket. Well I guess I had been in view of a dt because next thing I know some dumpy looking chick grabs my arm. So I'm like the fuck you touching me for? Next thing I know I am being thrown onto the cement sidewalk by two undercover officers who are yelling shit like "don't you fucking move or I'll break your neck" "get up against the car" get on the ground" get against the wall" (they had no idea what they wanted I guess lol.. They even tore my hate off to show my dreads and threw it on the ground. Only costed me a hour of my time, but still pissed me off pretty good.
So anyways, moral of my story is, in nyc possesion is a civil offense, basically a speeding ticket is going to screw you over harder and cost you more. SO for this civil offense I got my body all fucked upp by being slammed onto the concrete... Was great there was like old men in buisness suits and just normal people gathering around going off on the officers for as one bystander put it "molesting people int he middle of the street" and the cops are just telling the surrounding taxpayers shit like "fuck you" yeah fuck you buddy" fuck off"
Give your friend a joint!!!!:thumbsup:...that's some impressive shit how he just took off running like that....anyway don't you guys just lust for the day when stoners won't have to run from the police for just smoking some pot.
ya definatly, we make a hike now up a large hill and just walk there from our houses now.. it's got a good view of the road from about 100 meters away so it should prove to be chiller. difficult with a messed up ankle but i think it's worth it.. still have a quarter or so left so have until then do decide what's going down.. i love weed way too much it's hard to imagine quitting honestly.. lol.Quote:

Yeah I didn't figure I could be charged with anything seeing as he was just bullshitting with me the whole time trying to scare me.. Eventually I figured I had to be let go but it would've sucked to go to jail for the weekend and have the judge sort out that I wasen't doing anything wrong.. I don't think they had the power to do that in this case with nothing on me and just the smell of weed in the air.
dude are you fuckign kidding me, i fucking hate the way the fucking "justice" system or whatever the fuck you want to call it works here, think of all the fucking money it cost for all those officers and fucking helicopters all casue they wanna catch one stoner. its soooo fucked up serisously.
I have a similar story about cops with nothign better to do, I bought a pack of cigs and im literaly in the fucking parking lot of the gas station when a cop comes running up form no where and starts harrasing me, askign me to show my fucking id and my friend who was with me who was not 18, im in fuckign disbeleif that this is happening and i give them shit like asking if he doesnt have anything better to do(i guess not was his reply), well my friend lied about his age and got a obstruction charge and they searched and found weed on him among other things, so hes fucked. Anyways so completely after my friend is arrested and everything fucking 5 more cop cars show up, with like 8 officers just to stand around and suck each others dicks. So they chargee me with underage drinkign even tho i blew a .00 just cause they got me into admitting i had a drink a while before it happened and obstruction of justice(WTF? apparently questioning there fucked up antics which are obvioulsy fueled by nothing better to do, there outright lying, and the complete waste of money it was for 9 officers to come to the scene after the fact is "obstructing") .
So ya then at court they obviously lied on their report so its pointless for me to fight the bullshit charge so im forced to plead no contest to the obstruction and it wasnt even worth it to fight it even if i would have had a chance cause it woulda meant more court which iwant to have as little as possible to do witht that shit anyways.
Sorry for the rant but i think about this shit a lot lately and it gets me so fucking pissed im literally almost at the point of violence because obviously theres no other way to change this fucked up shit otherwise it would be done by now(not that fuckign shit up would probably accomplish anything either but it would make me feel a hell of a lot better). But anyways it sounds like you have it even worse where you are i feel bad for you(fucking helicopters are you fuckign serious). all I want is to smoke my fucking weed in peace fuck
Seattlesmoke.... You got hasseled because you forgot the most basic of rules.
NEVER put yourself in a position where somebody has to *DO* something about it in the first place..... with the other crimes in your area and the cops are already looking close for thieves, and you and your friend wanna go smoke in your neighborhood??? Get real.
What you do in the privacy or *YOUR* own home is your business, what you do in public is subject to scruteny (and police harrassment).
You and your friend put yourselves at risk, and the consequences could have been a lot worse. A little common sense goes a long way.
actually we need more people to go out and smoke in public, well unless you like be in constant fear that is. when more people see respectable citizens being arrested and the huge waste of money they are spending to try to bust small time pot heads, especially if they have problems with real crime like he mentioned, then maybe something will be done. It sucks cause every one is scared to get caught what we actually need is people who arent scared to sacrifice themselves for the cause otherwise nothign will be done. fuck the police
Until weed is legal, the basic tenant still applies.... Don't put yourself in a position where somebody has to *DO* something about it. If you want to put yourself at risk, and put your future at risk, you can do what you want. just don't come whining about police are pigs and fuck the police. They are only there to do a job. Yes there are some real assholes in law enforcement, just the same as there are in *ANY* vocation. When your grown and have some of lifes experiences behind you, you will have figured this out. Until then, weed is still illegal, and your gonna have to deal with it.Quote:

so obviosuly we ran i got away but my m8 got caught luckyly he managed to stash the blunt so we didnt loose out on our last bit of weed
but the police knew that he was wiith me trying to make him mess up so they could take him to the station but in the end the cops gave up and came to my house to see if i was in but i wasnt and i ent heard nothing from them since:D:D
Mississippi Steve, I would definatly be smoking in private if I owned my own place.. Some of us stoners are younger, and I will admit I probally would have a private place if I didn't smoke so much weed.. My messed up priorities [ or lack there of ] are the reason I am pretty much forced to smoke in 'public'. Shit I could smoke at my parents house, they probally wouldn't give a damn.. I just don't want to have my younger siblings accidentally exposed.
As aforementioned we have been going to a different spot at the top of a hill in a pretty deeply wooded area.. Nobody can hear or see us, and if for some reason the cops came I would know 10 minutes before hand.. This is working out nicely.
Basically my point isn't don't smoke in public places, because sometimes people have to.. My point is select the most discreet far off pain in the ass smoking spot you can because in the end it's worth it.. Shit we spend like an hour walking up, smoking, and back down from our smoke, and an hour later we go back up there.. Spending half of our day smoking ''safely''.. Still better than getting caught up by the police.
i wouldnt stop smoking i would just pick another spot to burn at.
i just dunt reely get how 5 cops went to his house but he didnt get caught?
u gunna tell me his mom said no hes not here and they just left?
lol maybe i missunderstood lol
great story tho. just try not to make ur spots hot. u gotta rotate spots, dats what i always do.
Yeah everything is chill now, going back to the normal routine. We have a few chill places to go now to avoid trouble.. Always the chance of getting caught somehow, best just not to carry what you're not willing to go down for.. As for running for such small amounts not sure if it's the best idea seeing as it can get blown out of proportion.
LOL, I feel sorry for our neighbours down south. It sounds like toking up is a dangerous game to play. The trouble people go through just to smoke a little weed.
Unfortunately, when you are young it is difficult to find a safe and private home to smoke in. My advice for public smoking with a buddy is to keep moving. Strolling along a trail or park path is good. No one can sneak up on you that way.
I hate smokin outside unless i'm in a car, i just feel too sketched out. Atleast when you're in a car and you're about to get pulled over you can pitch the joint or blunt. I would always enjoy taking my all wheel drive turbo car out into the twisties, through the forest, whilst smoking a fatty. 400awhp by itself will keep you a good distance from any LEO, even if their driving a new charger with a 6.1 hemi =P
I don't agree with this. How is that going to bring about change? Alcohol is legal and we have open container laws...Tobacco is legal and there's barely anywhere left to smoke in public. Not that those laws are necessarily fair or just, but i don't see how anyone blazing in public is going to change minds.Quote:

skeet.
Years of man-power, gasoline, and, electricity have gone to arresting pot-smokers. A few weeks ago, police had a helicopter fly around that area (near Washington state), for five days, to get (something like) five plants.
America is the land of the free, yet, I can't live my life as the balanced individual, I used to be, without being thrown down to the dirt, as a low-life. I gave my life to try and be as they want me to be. Then, they cut me off, and, when I go through withdrawals from their "experimental" medication, after a quick "9-1-1" call, and, then immediate hang-up, the cops give me a choice of going to jail or to the psychiatrict clinic.
I am not meant for either of those places. I know that I never should've called "9-1-1". I should've called every person responsible, and, you know what they would've said? "Chris, I don't give a crap," or, something along those lines, but, when the doctors said, "There's nothing more that I can do for you," and, then the cops come to my house, the whole world is telling me that they don't give a crap.
It's funny, though.
We bought an rv this past summer,was at the lake,had a great day & that night was in our rv & relaxing with a good one,a bitter alcoholic in the lot next to us was angry because we would not give him any more money for his beer & called the police about 15 minutes after we went in on bs claims of harrassment.
Long story short he actually told the police we were smoking pot & they did try & come in our rv but I stepped outside & was polite but refused to give permission to come in just to check things out. This bitter,ugly man was proud of the fact of what he did. We pulled out the next day & I realized then how different the world really is..he was smiling when we left & just so proud he ran us off.
I truly hope he has run across the "right one" to pull that on when he doesn't get his way again. He was also angry because he was rejec ted by one of the women with us..she didn't want a smelly,pissy aggressive drunk around her..we did everything to ignore him but he just had to call the police.
Later on I did find out he had been living there for 4 yrs. & the church covered for him doing all kind of illegal crap because his father was a member of their church & placed him out there in a camper because he couldn't handle him at home. He was the one harrassing anyone that came thru for money & when refused he constantly called the police & told them "they do drugs". Anyway..very happy you made it out.
