the doughnut comment is really clever. i thought you could have come up with something better.
while peeing on a motorcycle should not warrant your head getting slammed to the ground you agree that your actions warranted some punishment dont you?

Van-Go,
Take a deep breath and step away from the computer.
You and your bro are good peeps, but you must realize that you have entered a den of counter-culture.
Either play nice and holster your weapon or don't even bother to show up here.

i realize that. but his assertion basically all cops are fuckers is off base just like the assertion that all dope smokers are losers. i am not here MONITORING anyones activity. i am here to look at TR's and pics of things that i cant experience here in midwest. and occasionally get a good laugh.

I've found with cops its best to be really nice to them if they have nothing to blame you for. Otherwise, RUN! I can outrun most people, and certainly middle aged over weight cops.

I used to suck dick for coke. Now that's an addiction.
You ever suck some dick for marijuana? "

I don't hate cops at all... as a matter of fact only yesterday I went to the graduation of a long time friend from the academy in my hometown. But he is able to see the difference between criminal acts and spiritual facts. It is not the place of the government in a free society to command what people can and cannot put in their body. If you only "think" that this is "probably not as bad as other things," then you need a serious lesson in philosophy before you prance around tampering with other fellows' fates. There nothing bad or good at all about smoking a joint on a hilltop, it is the simple ingestion of the burnt form of an organic substance by a two legged creature... your terms of "bad" and "good" while I tend to try not to use these terms are in regards to people violating that freedom of others i.e. a cop taking plants that god gave man in the first place. Such infrigement of civil liberties that you so arrogantly condone is precisely why democracy is long dead in this fascist empire that you probably just finished saluting

I never understood why a dog can pee wherever the hell it wants but if a human does it deserves some sort of punishment.
Carry on.

The study of FBI data by a Washington-based think tank, the Sentencing Project, found that the proportion of heroin and cocaine cases plummeted from 55 percent of all drug arrests in 1992 to less than 30 percent 10 years later. During the same period, marijuana arrests rose from 28 percent of the total to 45 percent.

First, I agree that pot/shrooms/etc. being illegal is just plain silly. However...

Well, the San Jose police realized that if someone didn't speak much English they were unlikely to sue in court to get their money back.
This went on for years.
Also, during this time, the SJ police shot more people per capita than any other PD in the nation.
I would regularly get stopped while riding my bicycle to and from work. One officer even told me "There's nothing to do and we're bored, so we just stop people randomly and search them for drugs".
Then we get into the LAPD, in which some units regularly planted drugs on people while dealing drugs themselves...
This, friends and neighbors, is why there are limits to the power of the police and the courts -- because people are not perfect, and any power will be misused by some of those who have it. Yes, that means that some people get away with crimes -- but would we rather have that, or lots of innocent people doing time because they pissed off a politician or the police captain's cousin?

YOU can also take that power away by affecting change. without constant checks and balances in this system with out courts/appeals/public opinion/etc etc then we probably would live in a police state. or maybe chaos but i doubt it. cops step on someones rights the courts balance it and law is made. sometimes individuals like Busted get trampled. unfortunately its not perfect and people get run over from time to time.
tippster is absolutely right, cops should be held to the same standard and code of conduct as anyone else. we are not or should not be the ones out there to hand out the "punishment".

found a source that agrees with me from here:
http://my.marijuana.com/pipestudy.php3
"a ratio of about 1 part cannabinoids to 13 parts tar. This disturbingly poor ratio may be explained by the low potency of the NIDA-supplied marijuana used in the study, which was around 2.3%."
Anyway, I'm going skiing tomorrow. Hoping Abasin will be clear of the crowds with Breck&Keystone opening up. Looking forward to seeing what this storm brings
