all good and dandy but not really the way it works. About 12-15 years ago my friend and I were driving home from another friends house at about midnight. We had smoked some pot at the friends house we were at so im sure we had a hint of it on us.
Anyways, we got pulled over for a tail light being out. The cop came up to us and said he could smell pot on us, we told him we didnt have any. He then asked if he could search the car and my buddy driving said, no. The police officer then called a K-9 unit 5 cities away and said we couldnt leave until the dog came. He said if the dog barked it meant there were drugs in the vehicle. Well, they had to wake the dude with the dog up and 45 minutes later he finally showed up.
They let the dog in my buddys car, tore the shit out of the seats and the dog started barking. The officer told is that since the dog smelled drugs he had a right to search it. They made us stand outside the whole time. By then around 6 officers were there and they tore the car apart. They didn't even find 1 bean or stem. They left all the shit on the side of the road and told us we could go. This is winter in MN and im pretty sure it was 20 or less outside.. The next day there were scratches from the dog on the seat and dashboard.
We went and filed a complaint against the city and officer and nothing ever happened. He even went to go as far as to threaten to sue the city for the damage to his car but could not afford to retain a lawyer.
Point of the story being, saying no may look great on paper but in the real world police will fuck with you if question their authority.
