under the influence in public
    #2052779 - 10/29/03 01:59 AM (20 years, 6 months ago)

ok, so my friend and i were kinda debating on something, and neither of us really know what we are talking about, so i thought someone on here could help clear things up for us.


so im walkin around downtown (or some other random public place) under the influence of shrooms. im not really making a scene or anything, but try to talk to me and you will knows somethings up...
so im just wandering around (not sure of the reason, this is all theoretical...i dont trip in public) and officer scrotum comes walkin up giving me shit about how im walkin down the wrong side of the street of some bullshit, and right away knows im on something...so i get detained, searched and nothing comes out of the search, can i still get arrested? i know being drunk in public is an offence, but my friend swears that this law does not apply to other drugs....im pretty sure id get arrested, but then again, i dont really know all the laws....

Short answer, yes.

The long answer depends upon where you live. Even if they cannot get you for being drunk in public, they can still get you for disturbing the peace, trespassing, resisting, or any other bullshit charge they think of.

Remember, if you are in public and a cop comes up to you, try to minimize the time of the contact. Be polite and ask if you are being detained. If you are not, then politely inform the cop that you need to be somewhere else, and leave.

Thats a terrible way to handle an officer of the law while on mushrooms. The correct response would be to throw your hands up in the air, hop up and down from foot to foot, and scream AHHHHHHGOOOBBAAAGBOOOBAAAAGAAAAAAAAAHHHHH!.....and then run, fast.

How about this situation, i always get into it with a friend about this one too.

Assume I'm driving, havnt had a sip to drink, while the three friends im driving around are drunk as shit and get pulled over for, lets say, speeding (think ~5mph), not coming to a complete stop, not using a signal when turning, or something small that you see all the time, for a clearly sober driver. . One of my friends swears that the three would be taken away for public intox. while I have to disagree, they arent really "in public" and how would they expect people to get home after going out to the bar, they still might take a taxi, bus, or find another way to get home that dosnt include stumbling down the sidewalk.

Were also assuming the drunks werent hoppin around or anything, arent talking shit when they get pulled over, or anything retarded like that.

Referring to the 2nd situation, If you're underage I can tell you for sure that the cops will try their hardest to get you for MIP (minor in possesion) if they're in the mood. The whole thing that so many kids don't realize, or forget when I cop is being intimidating, is that they have to have some actual proof before they write you a ticket.

They will try and trick you into saying that "yeah I had a beer earlier" BAM! MIP for you. "What? You haven't been drinking? I'd like you to take a breathilyzer now." No fucking way! Unless you're behind the wheel the cops can't make you take a breathilyzer. Don't do field sobriety tests or anything else they try and get you to do in order to build a case against you.

As far as the first situation, #1 don't talk to cops unless you absolutely have to when you're tripping. When I trip in public I'm with friends also tripping. We just try to avoid eye contact with people, and try not act too fucking weird  :laugh:

Luckily the situation has never gone further than that for me, but for my friends it's been different. One of buddies was out of his skull at a ski resort over the summer. The cops approached him, he couldn't tell them his name and ended up in handcuffs. Luckily a couple of his friends weren't tripping quite as hard and got him out of it by saying the altitude had been making him sick all day, and that they'd take him to a doctor or something to that effect. Bottom line, never admit anything, and if you have to pull a fear and loathing "My friend's sick, but don't worry, I'll take him home and take care of him." (Since most of us probably couldn't pass for doctors)  :wink:

hmmm....thats a tough one...i was always under the impression that while in your car you are not technically "in public"...but then again, parked on the side of the road having sex will land you at least a ticket im sure....i dont know, our laws are so sketchy i always get confused trying to figure them out...but i have a hard time with that one, its like you said, our drunk asses need to get home from the bar somehow...maybe if they were like mooning the officer or something...i guess these kind of laws are really up to the cop to decide if its worth taking you to jail huh? doesnt that suck... :smirk:

No minors are involved, were assuming that the only laws broken are simple moving violations incurred by a sober driver.

I have been here. The cop thanked me for being responsible for my friends and driving them around sober instead of drinking with them and let me go on my way. We were all of drinking age. I don't know what would have happened if we were underage.

Not the same situation..........but

Just recently an underage(19yo) friend of mine was at the bar with an over 21 freind of mine........they both got really fucking lit up......the 21yo says he is way to fucked up to drive so the 19yo drives back home.........they get pulled over(in front of my house actually...hehe...so close :tongue: )........well of course they arrest the 19yo.......they then detain the 21yo and give him a minute to find a ride......the minute is really 30 seconds.......the cops walk over snatch his phone and say 'your coming with us on public intox charges'.........WTF??

isnt that kinda like pulling a drunk out of a taxi or something for public intox? Arent cars private property?

Cops probably can, but if they do detain you, they are dicks. Most cops will search you, if you dont have shit on you, then oh well. They might call your parents if they wanna be dicks if you are under 18, or thye might make someone take you home who is sober (wich is hard to prove!) so becareful, but i dont think too much bad can happen if you play it cool. ive had friend run through walmart naked trippin nuts harrassing people get caught and the cop forced us to take a cab home(i was sober, but 2 friends were obviously on drugs, so he coldnt "prove" it,..and i was pretty cool with that, as he coulda been in alot more trouble)

:shrug: depends on if they have anything better to do. If they ask you where you got them, dont say anything too bad. Dont tell em you grew em, or a friend gave them to you, etc. Maybe like "my brother was home from college last weekend and left them" or something...i dunno. dont wanna make it sound like you bought them or they will see some kind of bust in thier eyes, leading them up the chain of command. make it seem as innocent as possible.

peace

No reason to admit you ate mushrooms at all man. Cops love it when you admit things, it makes it real easy for them to write you a ticket, prosecute you etc. If you're gonna be in public trippin balls think of some semi-plausible thing to say to a cop or whoever ahead of time if you have a nasty encounter. Just make sure whatever you say ends with something you can do or somewhere you can go, so the cop doesn't take it upon himself to try and detain you until you "feel better" or whatever.

As far as the drinking thing, cops can do lots of things if they're motivated to be dicks. For instance, there's a law now in a state that I know of that you can be written up for public intoxication WHILE IN A BAR! In addition the establishment will get a fine for letting you get drunk. Cops have actually been known to enter bars looking for drunk people. In the end there are a million bullshit ways to get in a trouble, it all depends what shape you're karma's in, or whatever. That being said, there's almost no chance three of age intoxicated people being driven home by a sober driver are going to get into any kind of trouble if they're pulled over, at least if you handle the situation with a little more finesse than a gorilla.

One time me and 2 friends where tripping on mushrooms in this college carpark (pretty dumb thing to do I know) at night. Out the corner of my eye I saw this car coming round the corner, as it got a little closer I realised it was a cop car.

My friends wanted to run but I persuaded them to stay, when the cops pulled up they started asking what we were doing, I took the lead and told them we were walking to my house and it was a shortcut. Then I started trying to explain where my house was and generally talking to this cop like she was an old friend (shrooms make me do funny things). Anyway after a couple of mins of me blabbing to this cop about my house, the shortcut to my house and pointing out where we were going the other cop said we were free to leave (he didn't seem too happy though). We then left in the opposite direction I told the cop we were going :laugh:

The funny thing is that I had a bag of weed in my pocket at the time and if I hadn't been tripping I would probably have shit my self and run.

In conclusion, did the cops know we were on some kind of drug, definatly. Did they do anything, no. This was in the UK though and our cops are not quite as callous as their US counterparts.

I really dont think you can. I have been caught being stoned in public, got searched and cop found nothing. He informed me that this was a warning and some other bullshit that went in one ear and out the other. Really though i knew he wanted to get something on me and arrest me. I could see it in his eyes. So if he could acually do something about me being high in public he would have. Im assuming the same applies to mushrooms.


--------------------
Penalties against drug use should not be more damaging to an individual than the use of the drug itself. Nowhere is this more clear than in the laws against the possession of marijuana and mushrooms in private for personal use.
