Can cops get high?

Can undercover cops get away with using illegal drugs so that they don't blow their cover? Or will they try to talk their way out of it/not inhale?

I have read on marijuana.com's Cheaptalk forum from a post by K9Copper, an actual cop, that you cannot. One of the other cops on that site has also explain that cops cannot do so. That forum used to be great, very helpful, with those two cops just helping people understand the law and what cops can and will do, even if the law is unjust. It's trying to be more "professional"/medical oriented now, though.

incorrect... regardless of the source... it's like the rumor that asking a cop if he's a cop and him having to answer honestly... I know cops that get high on a fairly regular basis
Cops can and will sample product in order to make a bust, in court they will articulate that they had reasonable suspicion that they were in danger or any number of other things in order to cement a conviction... Cops lie, its what they are paid to do

i have a friend who is going in to the cop program in lethbridge was telling me that they get drug tested regularly in the program and if they are even seen in the on-campus bar they can be removed from the program.
I have no knowledge of cops that are active.

In a small town near mine, there are only 3 cops in the whole town. My friend's dad is the chief of police, and he chiefs and so does another one. We found pipes in his bedroom drawer and smoked out of em. I'm not sure about the 3rd guy though. One of them has been known to take some of your stash and let you go.

Chinacat talked about cops taking LSD (and Vicoden) at Dead shows - check out the Thumbprint thread in the pub or the LSD Crystal to blotter thread in ODD. Sorry, too lazy to link right now.

I used to party with a good friend who was a state trooper. Sometimes, he'd bring in some nice stashes from a hard day's work. I know it was risky shit - having a cop in the "rotation", but he had more at risk than we did, so it was all good.

In my dads young days as a cop in the seventies he toked up fairly often. He is still working for the same department as a trainer/d.a.r.e. officer. Ironic isnt it?

I don't know about the undercover cops, but I had a friend back where I used to live who was married to one. And we got high all the damb time. It was funny as hell to see local cops getting high. Though, they didn't do it often.

The secret to being funny is to say smart things stupidly, or is it stupid things smartly? Whatever..it's not rocket surgery...or something like that.

You be surprised how many cops burn! In my area the amount of pot confiscated is always more than the cops report... Its not like the person being busted is gonna say to the judge "Hey I had an Ounce of pot not an Eight!". So the cops keep it for themselves, wouldnt you?

I don't know if it's legal,but cops do get high to make busts.
When the DEA is trying to infiltrate LSD distrobution families,they'll drop acid and take large doses of benzodiazepines nullify it.
The FBI admitted in documents that are now public because of The Freedom Of Information Act that they taught their agents to learn how to properly handle marijuana when they were trying to break up the SDS (Students For A Democratic Society) in the 60's. (See the book Acid Dreams .)
