Hide that blunt before asking a cop for directions
Maurice Stuckey had the bad luck of approaching a former narcotics investigator who noticed the blunt tucked behind Stuckey's ear. (Here is the arrest report in PDF format.) (South Florida Sun-Sentinel)

There is an episode of COPS where an asshat did this. Was funny as hell cause the officer asked him he he smoked pot and he said no but yet behind he ear was a nicely rolled joint which the guy had forgot about.

Sounds like he'd already smoked a little. Pretty stupid.

I have been higher than a kite and I have still never been high enough to ask a cop for directions with a blunt behind my ear.

You just gotta be a special kind of stupid to ask a cop for directions with a blunt in plain sight.

Well, he was at least honest, when he was caught. How dumb can a person be?

First thought after reading the intro: Cheech and Chong
in a broken down smoke filled car see cops across the road, yells out the window, "Can any of you pigs give us a push?"

Thank God the cops are arresting mild mannered pot smokers instead of all the hardcore criminals that we have running around in Florida. Honestly, they couldn't let this go? My friends and I have smoked jays walking down the street in NYC and not been bothered by the cops.

In a country where the police can bust down your door with no warning what-so-ever with a no-knock warrant granted due to an 'anonymous tipster'...
Why would you ever take pot out in public?! Keep it indoors, away from the drug pigs and the brainwashed masses.
I know many successful computer professionals who smoke pot after work. I'm so tired of the nanny-state telling me what I can and can't do to myself just because a few scumbags can't handle themselves.
