What if you ask if someone if there a cop???

[Budman37]

I was wondering about this....If someone emails you from this site and says they want to get together they live near and dont know any smokers there new to the area and you email back and ask them if there a cop do they have to tell you the truth. If they say no and turn out to be a cop can they bust you for anything??? I already told the guy I dont sell weed but might get some and would smoke a bowl with him if he stopped by...What could happen to me if this guy is a cop????

Budman, that's a real popular rumor about cops having to identify themselves as such if you ask them a straight-out question. But that's all it is--a rumor. LEOs can and do lie about their identity on occasion in order to make a bust or progress toward one. Watch the show "Cops" when they're doing prostitution stings and you'll see them lie in nearly every other scenario when they're asked outright.

If you worry that this person may be a cop, don't take any unnecessary risks. In theory, if he is a cop he could indeed arrest you if and when the weed came out. I rather doubt he is. For one thing, most serious cops wouldn't worry about someone with only enough weed to smoke, but still. You don't know.

Even things cops "can't" lie about they still do all the time, and get away with it. In court it's your word against his, and the judge will always believe the cop over the pot head.

I'm guessing that rumor started with the Movie 'Blow' when Pee Wee Herman asked Johnny Depp if he was a cop, and he had to tell him or it was entrapment. Just a guess-I remember taking note of it and wondering if it was true.

Cops don't setup meetings to just bust smokers. If he thought you were dealing he might. Just don't say you deal. If he busts you for smoking hers a faggot.

Let it be perfectly and totally clear, police can lie about whether they are LEO. There is only one lie a cop can't tel that I know ofl, and it deals with interfering with your right to counsel after you are arrested. Otherwise they can lie about anything and everything. Now, it is a little dicey if they consume illegal drugs, that is a much better test. But even that is not reliable, if they are in personal danger they will use drugs.
