So the cops ALMOST wrecked my new years. (holy shit!!)

so my new years could have been completely fucking wrecked. i'm high and if you wanna read, (its a lot) heres the story...

me and 4 other friends are crammed into my car rollin around town like usual smoking bowls. we're driving thru a low key neighborhood, and a truck has been following us for awhile. i didn't think much of it, until we turned a corner and we all realized it was a pig in our towns cop pickup.

we immediately stash everything laying around: space case, bags, burning bowl, lighters, and a bottle of rum. as soon as we're done sorting our shit out, the cherries come on. most of us throw on the belts and two of my buddies light up cigarettes to cover the smell.

the cop strolls up to my window and immediately accuses me of needing help because he 'just can't figure out where i'm going, and thinks i'm lost' or something. it was the biggest bullshit reason to pull a person over ever!! he thinks that just because we were driving aimlessly we needed to be pulled over.

he takes my license and reg back to the car and we're doing alright. we figure he can't smell anything cuz of the cigs and we start to chillax a tad. then we see the sherriff roll up with his poochie in the back seat. now we start to get a lil more nervous. a second town pig rolls up and then comes and asks me to get out. i comply and step out and set up to him. he immediately says to me 'wow, i can smell you already. you smell like marijuana son. have you been smoking anything tonight?' 'no officer, i haven't'

we go back and forth for a few minutes. 'you have anything on you?' 'no, sir' 'have you been drinking?' 'no, sir.' blah blah etc. then he starts to frisk me and feels my pants down. he feels my lighter and asks me to take it out of my pocket. i pull it out and show it to him, he asks my age, i tell him i'm 18. i put it back in my pocket as he feels up my coat. he feels my cell phone and cooly says 'why dont you take your dugout out of your pocket?' i pull out my phone and say 'its my phone, sir.' then he asks if i have any inside pockets on my coat. now i get worried cuz thats where my quarter of bud is chillin. at this point i asks him if its legal for him to be frisking/searching me like this. he says that he can according to blah blah whatever, but he stops searching me at least (whew!).

then he says he is going to put the cuffs on me to detain me while he runs the k-9 unit around my car. i let him cuff me and while he is doing this he says, 'who are your friends in the car?' 'my friends.' 'i want names.' i stay silent until he is done cuffing me. he spins me around and asks again. me: 'you can check their id's if you want their names.' he takes me over to the cop pickup and puts me in there. asks me if he can search my car, and i tell him no. i mention to the officer in the pickup that my parents have told me not to let you officers search my car.

so the sheriff takes the poochie and starts wandering around my car, makes a complete circle with nothing. makes another complete circle without making a yelp. the officers, frustrated meet behind the police pickup and then the other townie officer comes up and i ask him if i'm being let out. he says yeah and i step out. he takes off my cuffs and then proceeds to verbally bitch-slap me for doing so and so, blah blah cop talk blah blah. the original officer hands me a written warning for my 2 underage friends not wearing seat belts.

i tell them thank you & good night and proceed to walk to my car and speed da fuck out of there with my friends just blowing up with excitement.





one of the greatest feelings, getting away from the fucking k-9 unit and 3 pigs. wow. mark one up for the stoners!!!

Yippeee........

Good goin man

Congrats man....really lucky. Great move for not letting them search the car. But let me ask you this.....why are you riding around in the same neighborhood in circles smoking bowls and drinking rum on New Year's Eve? That's pretty dumb man. You're just asking to go to jail. Be smart.

^never heard of a burn route man?

Good job man...I would have been scared pissless if that was me.

Unless i was driving i wouldve ran and got my mates to say i was a hitchhiker theyd picked up and they didnt know me.

you're very right. in hindsight it was not a very smart move. we weren't really driving circles though, just made a huge loop thru a nice neighborhood. you dont really think about that stuff until the cops are on your ass. :eek:


small towns=teh suxors :(

Precisely why I didnt go anywere after 10:00 last night. I also live in a (very) small town and knew I would be asking for trouble if I went anywhere.

Good job keeping your cool tho man, would have been tough for me (especially if I was stoned).

Never let the cops search anything. Even if there's nothing in the car just be an ass. Use your rights people. They take advantage of their power all the time. Screw the pigs.

That was the most furyiest stories I've heard today. Sweet.

after thinking about it all day, the cops pulled so many bullshit moves.

-the original officer that pulled me over never even talked to me again after he took my license. the other fucks just took over immediately accusing me of 'smoking dope.'

-the k-9 was there almost immediately!! the original officer hadn't even suggested we were high. i think we just have a rep in our small town and they thought 'hey, we have those dopers pulled over! get the k-9 here a.s.a.p.!!'

-i really want to know if it is alright for an officer to search through my pants/coat pockets for drugs based on his sense of smell. b/c after i asked him, he completely gave up looking on me. (esp after he assumed my phone was a dugout, fucking tard)



====but, there were other things they probably could have done that would've fuct us====


-my lighter had resin all over the bottom from pushing down bowls, luckily he didn't see it

-he didn't feel my quarter through my bulky coat

-he didn't breathalyze me or any of my friends (all of whom *had* been drinking. give it up for DDs!!) i even asked him if he was going to: "do i get to take a breathalyzer or anything? i've never gotten to." lol

-one of the pigs threatened me with a 'field sobriety test' to see if i was high. i'm thinking to myself: 'go a-fucking-head! you pulled us over before i could even think about getting high enough to lose motor control'

-the bottle of rum was just laying on the floor below my friend's feet in the back seat *along* with his mixer. had the original cop been a little more handy with his flashlight he could've spotted them i spose.


==========

in the end, it was the goddamn marlboros that saved our ass. my friends lit up the cigarettes right away and didn't stop until we were home free. it was the only thing that kept that low-quality drug dog off our backs. :thumbsup:

An "overpowering odor of marijuana" (as it is defined by my local law enforcement, good to know these things) gives them probable cause to search you, yes. It doesn't sound like they had that though or they would have been able to search the car without asking you.

It sounds like you got away by the skin of your teeth. Probably because it sounds like you really kept your cool well. I'm impressed. So many things could have happened!

Be that as it may, but on new years eve it's rather dumb. It's when cops are more active and prone to flex their badge. Also smart move for not letting them in the car, they can't legally search the car without your concent/warent.

it's somewhat common knowledge around here that the drug dog they always bring isn't the brightest. i've heard from many people around here that it can't sniff for shit.

one of my friends was once hiding in a building, and he said the dog came within 2 feet of him, and they just passed on by!!

our town supposedly gets the burnt/coke'd out dogs from the bigger cities.

god, i still feel unbelievably lucky.... :stoned:

nice one, shit like that, a cop abusing his bag to TRY to find someone breaking the law, pisses me off, that shit happens to me often. after a while you start to relize that they cant do shit, they just act like then can, otherwise they would just arrest you, so they stand around waiting for you to mess up and give the something! damn i love hearing stories like that, fuck the popo!
