Talk about big brother!!! Personal privacy is being invaded at a fast rate. Last year cops busted a few locals outside Collonades, our local shopping mall here in the southern suburbs of Adelaide. I'm all for keeping our streets safebut really....last thing you want to do when you're bent as is start shit. Us mullers are a peaceful race.

Its really quite stupid. The odds of being caught by one are low if your like me and rarely go out to large public events

 

Also I rarely carry pot around on me, so even knows I am a mega pothead, its unlikely for me to get busted by a dog.

 

It especially fucks me off though, the police searching and hassling people over any drugs, but even worst with Cannabis, which is highly safe.

what really pisses me off is the so called "pro active policing" on certain stations at certain times here in syd . sniffer dogs . jeeze its getting so you can't carry a j on public transport anymore . iv'e been searched twice , both times it was just residual smell , so i was clean ..no prob .but i find it hard to resist a verbal at times [cop told me to sit on the floor while he searched my backpack,"why" i asked "because this could take a while" he said', i said "it will take five minutes , i'm comfortable standing" . well there was a bit more than that but i was careful not to make it personal or hinder his search[he only threatened to arrest me once!]. shit its not my fault their on ticket duty.. they know that they are just creeping everyone out and serving no real purpose . don't spose they signed up for that.[but they've got to put on the face] . the ironic thing is now they have more power[stop search etc] the effort for them to pursue a simple possession is not there cos the magistrates don't wont to be bothered with such petty shit haha.

pigs don't like being put on train duty and stuff like that which is why they're such dicks about things. They're simply taking their frustration out on us and its our duty to provoke them into snapping. Judges have ruled that swearing at an officer is no longer a crime as its something they experience as part of their duties so feel free to call them nazi cunts that should fuck off back to their domestically abused partners, refuse to consent to being searched and recommend that if they want to take the matter further that they take you to the cop shop, etc. This will ofcourse result in them going mental and hating you for life, but if you have no drugs on you there is nothing they can do and by making them snap and take you to the cop shop you have more than likely helped another person escape detection. You will have also made them waste time and resources which makes them look useless to the public and generally results in lower funding for following years.

 

In short its works out for everyone if we screw with the police
