Clips: The Pot Brownie Cop

This “cop on pot brownies” 911 call blew up on the internet this weekend, but this news report gives you a taste—and also frustrates me tremendously for two reasons. First, the cop was dismissed but no charges were filed, despite the fact that he stole evidence (the marijuana) from a locker?

Secondly, the newscasters crack up after hearing the cop freak out on the call, just like everyone else did when they heard it. Because we all know marijuana is totally harmless. That’s the fucking punchline of this whole thing, yet while we’re giggling about one dumb asshole of a cop’s misfortune, thousands of people are in jail for marijuana-related crimes. Ha ha ha!
