WHAT?!? 😕
You think police would turn a blind eye to a bust?
You must be smoking some very strong stuff!

[list=1]Only time I've heard the Police turn a blind eye is (sometimes) when

  • they think it was an honest and simple mistake
  • when the paperwork they'll have to do is worse than the offense
  • no government body is willing to pay for the person to be in jail
  • when that person is fairly politically connected[/list]

    4) there are children involved
    5) they simply want someone off the street
    There are so many people in this country using pot for medicinal purposes alone that the police don't have the time or inclination to chase all these people down to make an insignificant bust for simple possession.
    And then there are the millions of recreational users.
    Just numbers wise turning a blind eye is pretty much essential or law enforcement would be doing a good impression of a dog chasing his tail.
    Plus throw in the fact that most court systems don't want to be overloaded with simple possession cases.

    Too bad Sam isn't a safety. Imagine all the one high safety looks we could give opposing offenses.

    Heroin...It's natural so it's gotta be okay just like 7water Hemlock, which is also natural. Gets old reading how people who just wanna get high preach how it being natural makes it innocuous. No one was put on this earth to get drunk or high but it's amazing how many spend their short time here chasing just that.

    Get help Sam.

    The players are just going down to the next pain killer item... which is currently being promoted as healthier, safer, less addictive, less side effects, much cheaper and much more available (hell if I know if thone promotions are true or not, but that's what they are promoting).

    But if you get a group of people hooked and take away what they need to preform at their best, they're just going to go to the next item that they think they can get away with... which is weed. And some speculate that at least 75% to 80% of all players use weed...

    So either most NFL players don't have brains or there is something about it that is helpful or enjoyable enough to risk it for what ever reason...
