When i was younger I used to get stopped nearly daily, not always searched though. Thats the trouble with a group of 15 year olds walking up grove park kebab at 3 in the morning

only once, and to be fair i was walking round with my hood up wearing a backpack at 2am in an area that had bare burglaries at the time.

cops, much like the rest of society are going to have nice folks and arseholes. unfortunately as with the rest of society there are probably going to be more arseholes than nice folks. what's the solution, abolish the police force?

to be honest the cops here are probably the most chilled and hassle free out of any countries i've been to, we should consider ourselves lucky.

been arrested twice. once justifiable & once not; i was pulled for literally looking at a cop in traffic, me & my friends had a lil herb when we were searched so we were jailed. Have crazy/funny memories of that night, cause the jail was full of crackheads & pushers, cause they raided some trap spots in Atlanta. & the biggest dude named Debo wanted to be my friend. ha.

Reading thru this thread tho seems most of yall are in the UK (Im in the states). Ya think cops are worse there or here?.....i guess anyone who wants to be an asshole will be, badge or not...

3 knocks on the window and i look to my left out the hazy window and realized sometimes life just fucking sucks.

The cops weren't dicks they didn't manipulate anything but what is sad is that those two cops actually believed they were doing the right thing.

to everyone who quoted me:

why do people assume i was an idiot about it??

well whatever but i didnt drive anywhere. and it was MY parking lot (private property of the house i was living at) and it was a tiny piece not a freakin bong.

I to this day deny that i was doing anything wrong. It was my choice and i didnt endanger anyone and thats really what the post was all about...

shoulda made all that clearer

never on my own, but i've been searched at the french/swiss border when i've been either with my bf or my brother. i think they dont like piercings, caps or tshirts generally.

once was totally rude. my dad was driving me and the bf back home. he's got a nice audi car. about 6 flying border patrol pull us over on this deserted french country road at like 10 pm on weekday night. they look in the car at me and my dad (who had quite a few to drink btw), ask my bf to get out (and it's about -1 out), ask for his papers, practically strip search him on the side of the road for like 10 minutes, dont even bother asking to look in the car or even ask me and my dads papers. it was jokes.

he always gets shit at the border though. he's been strip searched once when we was still underage and i've heard enuff nasty stories about other mates as well. its wrong but you cant do shit about it. i fucking hate border police.

Stopped and Searched at Oxford Circus under "Prevention of Terrorism Act" after being followed off a train from Bristol to Paddington by a plain clothes BTP officer, followed onto the Bakerloo Line and then pointed out to two uniformed officers at Oxford Circus.

First of all they gave me shit for having a child's ticket (the policewoman was reading my ticket wrong!), next they dumped all my shit out of my weekend bag onto the floor. They kept me with them for about 15-20 minutes all in all, didn't find anything... I had some knives in there as I was restocking my girlfriend's kitchen after an ex-housemate had run off with all their shit... luckily I had a couple of saucepans too, otherwise it might've been difficult to explain those away.

They failed to spot the 1/8 in the end pocket of my bag.

Still.... I look like a terrorist apparently, which is always nice to be told.

Last time I was stopped it was a close call. I was coming back from Manchester after a rave and was haggard as fuck. Unfortunately for me there was a football game on in my home town and so they were doing checks for knives and things. I went through the check point and stumbled over to a police dog and started stroking it not having a clue. I informed them that I might have something on me but I couldnt be sure. As Iwas being searched my good friends were laughing their heads off and shouting "tell them the stash is up your bum." This wasn't true and I'm glad they didn't hear it otherwise this story would be far more grim than it is.

I got home and found some weed and pill dust in my pocket. They must have seen it but not been bothered. Very lucky indeed.

I got a funny one. I was driving home with some mates, pal was at the wheel, and a meat wagon careened in front of us doing a hand brake turn to block the road. Armed police jumped out and told my pal to get out of the car slowly.

After I dropped a turd, and the car went silent as the grave, I say 'has anyone got any pills on them?'. Turns out an armed robbery had been committed in a near by area and the suspects were four men in a dark coloured escort, which happended to match our description. Fair to say people weren't laughing at my joke when we didn't know what the fuck was going on but we did get the hell out of there when they were gone.

first time i was 19 & had neon blue spiked hair...undercover knocked on my window & asked if i had any "ex-sta-cy" he could buy. I told him i dont do that shit & to fuck off. He walked away & i quickly stuffed everything i had on me. 3 seconds later 4 cops have guns drawn telling me to get out of the car on the ground. I did & they found about 3grams of chronic and a fake ID saying i was 21. Not at all what they were looking for but i still spent 4 days in Miami-Dade County with people strung out on meth & had a 80 year old guy throw a wheelchair at me & watched the guy i got arrested with get the fuck beat out of him by guards cus he was asking to use the phone too much. Note to self: do not get arrested in Dade County again.

Next time i got stopped on the street at like 3pm & charged with "possession of paraphenalia without residue" for a brand new pipe i just purchased with the pricetag & receipt still on it. I'm a skinny white guy so the only reason i can think of for stopping me was the Technics shirt i was wearing.

Last time i was driving & smoking a blunt on the interstate with some friends. Got pulled by a K9 unit & the first thing the cop says is "I pulled you over with intent to search your vehicle"...so he handcuffs us all first(!)...gets the K9 out, throws a doggie biscuit in my window & (surprise!) the dog find my car very interesting all the sudden. So the officer says really loudly "I smell mari-juan-a!"...which is bullshit cus there was a still warm blunt in the ashtray HE NEVER FOUND(and we smoked immediatly afterwards)...so i get charged with possession of the tiniest amount of green you have ever seen. I mean it wasnt big enough for my one-hitter & thats why it was still there! So like .1 grams of weed. seriously. This after tearing my car apart & actually making me OPEN my dj mixer and remove the platter from my turntables so he could see inside them.

Ive had police force their way into my house just because they got a noise complaint(at 2 in the fucking afternoon) and "suspect there are substances" in the household(cus i have a bob marley poster in the living room perhaps?) surprise...didnt find a damn thing but certainly never apologized.

I've been parked in front of a club unloading gear & had cops stop by to check why i was in the middle of a road with flashers on(perfectly legal, not blocking traffic) and then they wound up having to search my car suddenly when they find out im a musician.

yay. fun times. funny that if it were legal to possess a mere 3 grams of cannabis here in Florida I would have a completely clean record & no run-ins with the law whatsoever. Or i could just quit playing music me thinks

i got stopped coming back from mexico one day by two state troopers in a camaro (i drive a shitty kia).

i guess i shouldn't have told them we went to mexico the night before because they started harassing me like "did you go see the medicine man, you got any pills." i tell em no and for some stupid reason gave them consent to search me and my car.

they proceeded to search my person two times, and my car for about 45 mins. eventually they found two seeds, gave me a ticket for paraphernalia and told me "i've taken people to jail for less"

less? one seed?

i could have had 100s of pills stuffed in the cd player pocket in my backpack cause they didn't even see it. managed to tear my car up pretty good in the process though.
