pot sniffing dog has nasal breakdown............

why would anyone spend money and time in training a dog for pot? Cocaine I can totally see it, but pot?

i used to get a kick out of the legion of handlers in miami international airport. the minute the medellin flight arrives, a dozen or so handlers show up and pester everyone. while they're tryin to enterdict dope in airport customs.....an oz or so....tons come in by cargo containers, boats, private planes...you figure.

when the 'wiffin-poofs' assemble

years ago, early ninetys, it used to be a game for me, when i'd come back from medallo to conference with my business partner in the los angeles store...he lived in tucson at the time...i'd prove to myself that i could sneak some treats back for my partner. this went on for years, always bringing back a couple of ozs or more.

well, on one landing, carrying/concealing about three oz's of toot, i, as i usually did, just sat on my bags and waited for all the chaos to clear and passangers finish in the queues, then i would go up and go through. well, on this occassion, as i said, carring a good treat for my partner, i was sitting on my bags and up comes this young handler with his dog. he tells me to stand up, has his dog sniff my legs, then tells me to bend over--for what, so the dog can sniff my ass??? any way, perturbed at this young prick, when his dog starts out on my bag, i say, "...find the dope, doggie, find the dope...." at this the young handler freaks and tells me he's gonna arrest me for fuckin with his investigation ???? i told him to give it a break, if i were in possession of drugs, would i fuck around with him? finally, with no score, he walks away, i walk through customs and my partner enjoys getting high. end of story.

What's really scary is if the innocent passenger who owned the bag got on another plane going to say...China and the customs there discover the weed.

Now this innocent passenger is in a Chinese prison trying to explain that he/she doesn't know how the pot got in his luggage and nobody will listen and is now just plain screwed (err... no pun intended).

Dwmte7. Your story reminds me of an experience former football player Thomas 'Hollywood' Henderson had years ago traveling into The Bahamas with two ounces of blow. He was so high that he put the blow on the top of his clothes in his luggage so the customs agent just opened up one bag and there it was. The customs guy looked at 'Hollywood' and said "most people come to the Bahamas to party, but I see you brought you party with you....have a nice stay." Then closed up the bag and waived Hollywood through.

you can go to npr.org and see exactly where that took place. let's hope--for the traveller's sake--they had reached their final destination, like miami or los angeles...
