We've All Been Here
(lemmy.world)
A few winters ago, my wife and I took edibles and then like a half hour noticed some weird movement on our porch.
It was a 13 year old who had run away from home and snuck onto our porch. She was attempting to stay warm by huddling under the dog blankets we keep out there.
After a short delay (figuring out what the hell was going on), we called the police. They arrived as the edibles were hitting and we had to keep our shit together while trying to talk to the cops about this kid that randomly appeared.
At least here, there's what I think are called "good Samaritan" laws that state no one may be charged if one is in an altered state of mind while calling about an overdose. Every example I've ever encountered has been specifically about an overdose, but I would think doing a good deed despite the risk would grant some leeway, from the court if not the cop.
Snitch
Doesn't want the brave public servants of his majesty's constabulary to contract her communicable conjunctivitis. Very thoughtful, really.
Yes genuinely is that what the post is about? I thought the post was about that, too
Edit: I am a đŸŸ¥
Please help understand. Am dumb; do not get
her eyes are red from smoking the marijuana, and hiding it from the cops behind her.
I'm so American I thought she'd been pepper sprayed and her eyes were still red while in custody
Is this not the UK where it's decriminalized?
It's effectively decriminalized everywhere but when marijuana junkies get all hopped up on the devil's lettuce they get paranoid and murdery.
Decriminalized doesn't mean legal.
And can a cop (legally) arrest you if you’re just high and aren’t actively doing the drug and not breaking any other laws?
In Sweden they can (and do). The police here take about 55 000 blood and urine samples per year for drug use convictions. It's awful.
In the US some states call that ‘internal possession’, it’s mostly used so that they have something to charge teenagers with when they catch them high. Dunno how the UK compares.
Once the substance is in your body it is denatured. Therefore no possession charge. Only of you are driving etc is it a problem
She's probably more worried about probable cause for a search
Edit :ianal but learned this at uni in some sub course
Idk
According to TinEye, this image was from at least 2019, and I don't think it was decriminalized back then? Wikipedia has some info from a few years earlier where they cite a survey saying a majority of all police recorded drug offences in the UK were for possession of cannabis.
The cop farted so hard, it made her eyes red.
She's high and doesn't want the cop to notice.
We kind of needed that reference. Didnt know that was supposed to be a cop. I'm from America so.
There's something "it's always sunny in Philadelphia" do right and is the make up when they're high or drunk on wine. A lot of series have scenes where the characters are high but never give them red eyes
Are the red eyes just from smoking? I take edibles all the time, but my eyes are never red from it
Is that the UK? I haven't been either
