A Twitter post by Kylie Cunningham @kyyylieeeee that reads “today at the airport one of the drug dogs set off a false alarm and officers rushed over to find out the dog had alerted them for a piece of pizza. the handler just patted his head and goes “it’s okay buddy i know pizza always confuses you” and gave him his treat anyways.”
ok, interesting trivia i wasn’t aware of, but it really doesn’t change much, the core of the problem still is:
Texas. Driving north from padre there’s a stop. They normally just wave you through. A friend came through it last year with 14 guns in the car. She told them and they waved her through- didn’t even open the trunk. Vapes, edibles, and weed are legally shipped to most states but that doesn’t mean police won’t fuck with you over it. They asked if he had any drugs, guns, explosives, or people in the car that they couldn’t see. He said he had a cbd vape. They didn’t care - just started searching the car where their dog alerted.
well if it is known point, that is even more reason not to tempt a fate. i am sorry you are in a situation your country is right now and i swear i am not trying to be an asshole, but it really is a no-brainer for me.
Not all of them are in fixed locations. Some of them are pop-ups, like a DUI checkpoint.
FWIW (and tangentially related), anyone traveling with weed is best served by keeping it in the trunk, rather than in the passenger compartment. Police have more freedom to go through the passenger compartment under the guise of concern over weapons that might be used against them, as opposed in the trunk, which can be viewed as a separate container and is less likely to be searched.
Ah, another ulterior motive for the rise of SUVs and crossovers.
I love how I live under such a fascist dictatorship that someone not from here can’t even begin to comprehend what life is like here…like it’s just baffling to normal people that our lived experience is even possible to exist haha.
…please send international aid.
