Yesterday while waiting for my flight at the wonderful Oakland airport I bummed a newport off some thug looking dude in the smoking section. I was hitting my vape (omg so gay you vape!) and had just swapped the tank for the 90% THC bhang stick.
About this time i notice the thug is smoking a blunt. I of course took a hit, tasty. We talk for a few and I start smoking the newport. Another few minutes pass and I see shadows of people with radios on their shoulders and sticks on their side come up behind me.
I'm thinking .. "well this day just got a lot worse" ...
I shit you not, the officer's opening line " Hey man (talking to the thug not me) I know it is basically legal now but someone complained to us about the smell. Could you please put that out?"
The cops (3 total) are all smiles on their face, not even remotely aggressive, very friendly in fact. They have a few more words with thug guy and then they bail out.
I look at thug guy and he looks terrified. He looks at me and we're both kind of like ... wtf just happened. Turns out thug guy is on his way to LA for his final court hearing on a GTA which will be his second strike .
Was a completely unexpected encounter but left me feeling a tiny bit better about the world ... then I remembered I was position B51 on an absolutely full southwest flight. May as well be down with the bags ...
