Ehagen8008 Posted June 28, 2007 Share Posted June 28, 2007 it was ridiculous...there was like 10 that showed up...each at different times...each asking me the same old questions...how much did it cost? how does it work? yadda yadda yadda...we werent doing anything wrong besides that we were at a park at night (which i guess you arent allowed to do)...there was a kid under 18 with me and all they did was call his parents and have them come pick him up...other than that...a waste of about an hour and a half and a good smoking session...damn...

yashman19 Posted June 28, 2007 Share Posted June 28, 2007 Well most places all have the same laws, can't be at public parks 1 hour after sunset. I think it was a bit of overkill sending in over 10 cops at different times, but personally I would have just left after the first cop... No sense in trying to reason with them, since you are infact not supposed to be there after dark.Sorry for the crappy session though. Never fun to set it up all nice like, just to have a crappy session with unwanted visitors. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DrunkenWizard Posted June 28, 2007 Share Posted June 28, 2007 You can't hate on the cops, they were just doing their jobs. It really would have been messed up if they took your hookah because they thought you were smoking something else. Consider yourself lucky. Don't hate the player, hate the game!

Sonthert Posted June 28, 2007 Share Posted June 28, 2007 At least they're curious...there was a time, not that long ago, when cops would summarily fuck with you hardcore for smoking a hookah, because they were convinced it was a bong...at least if you were non-semitic they were convinced it was a bong.

glz88 Posted June 28, 2007 Share Posted June 28, 2007 Haha thats funny the same exact thing happened to us minus the underage kid. We were at the park and around 5 cops showed up at different times telling us we were not suppose to be there. One of em took a drag of the hookah cuz he didn't believe us and thought it was pot.

ahwahoo2006 Posted June 28, 2007 Share Posted June 28, 2007 Honestly, it sounds like the cops were pretty cool about everything, except maybe taking their jobs a little too seriously. If they really wanted to be dicks they could have cited your friend for possession of tobacco underage and cited all the rest of you for contributing to the delinquency of a minor. But, like you said, you live in a pretty safe area, so they are probably pretty bored most of the time. The closed at dark thing is a dumb rule, but I don't think I've ever gone to a park without seeing one of those little signs by the gate. Chalk it up to a lesson learned and smoke in your backyard or something. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

SmokeMojo Posted June 28, 2007 Share Posted June 28, 2007 Sounds like you live in an area a lot like the place I spent the last couple years of highschool. It was a small suburb "bedroom community" a lot of upper middle class and very little crime. The cops were always bored there and half the time they'd come down to taco bell and bullshit with us. They never gave us problems with the hookahs unless they got complaints. The cops at my University all smoke it if they see us in the quad. The first time they came up and they were like "Now that's not what I think it is, is it?" and after I explained it they all wanted to try it haha. It got to the point where I was going to class one day and one of the Campus Officers asked me if I would be out smoking that night so he could make sure he strolled through when he was on duty.

MechAnt Posted June 28, 2007 Share Posted June 28, 2007 I've encountered a very similar situation before too.Just like you, i live in a middle to upper middle class neighborhood with virtually no crime yet we still have a full blown CHP and sheriffs hub in our dinky little town. I guess that contributes to little crime. Anyway, we were smoking outside my friend's house cause it was a nice So Cal night and a pair of cops came by. There were four of us, one was underage and on probation. This means if he's caught one more time with a crime, its jail. They looked through everything and then left. Another pair of cops swung by but they were really cool. They asked what it is, how it work, and stuff like that. After they took a couple hits they started to show us the bells and whistles of their squad car. They has a M249 SAW in their car!!! It was actually a pretty awesome night. Bored cops in a safe town. nothing else better to do Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
tj154906 Posted June 28, 2007 Share Posted June 28, 2007 I'm actually looking forward to the day that the TCPD starts giving me shit about smoking. Someone needs to educate them, might as well be me. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
