Police threaten to arrest people who mocked tiny cannabis bust - Sensationalist Headlines

Police threaten to arrest people who mocked tiny cannabis bust |.. Sorry for tabloid, but it beats posting Facebook screenshots. However, PCI Moizer updated the post a few hours later and said: ‘Please use this page with respect or you will be banned and maybe even prosecuted.’ He added: ‘I would like to remind everyone that this is a Police page and whatever your thoughts on one of my officers seizing drugs in the community, being insulting, abusive or offensive can and will result in a prosecution under the Malicious Communications Act 1988.’

Not sure about UK laws on getting caught with weed, I hope nobody is going to jail for this

Well it's illegal for sure, I got caught with the same amount and got a warning though.

Very unlikely, probably got just an informal warning. I've been caught smoking in the city a couple of times by the same Police Force (West Yorkshire) and they just told me to put it out, no drama.

what's worse is the police are woefully underfunded and we have a crime epidemic while they're going doing this sorta stupidity.

wow, salty police, they need to grow up and get a life

The comments are now bleeding over to their other posts, what a golden situation. I needed a good laugh today. https://www.facebook.com/WYPWakefieldRural/

I swear, total and utter cunt desk jockeys run those facebook pages. They're always stupidly sensitive about everything they get sent.

Imagine going to jail because you said the police were doing a shit job

Anyone else think of a very small statue of a pot leaf?

Oi you cheeky cunt, you got a mocking license?

Keep in mind that this is Wakefield, West Yorkshire. This is a town in the North where they probably don't have the same levels of crime as London. In London, typically police won't even bother for this small amount and are much more concerned with dealers than users. This is just a case of too much time, too little crime.

dont talk to me or my tiny drug bust ever again

who'd get me if I was right

If it wasn't for the fucking bullshit arrests we've had recently with the Pug dude and the person quoting snoop dog, I would actually find this funny.

Similar situation over here where the NZP will brag about their cannabis busts on their fb page then get upset when everyone calls them out for their shit.

The Victorian Police are the opposite here, they shitpost memes and laugh things up on their facebook page and its amazing

Thank god they seized that crook's 2g's of gateway.

I would like to remind everyone that this is a Police page and whatever your thoughts on one of my officers seizing drugs in the community, being insulting, abusive or offensive can and will result in prosecution under the Malicious Communications Act 1988 Yeah and just become the laughing stock of the court as well as the public. Waste of tax payers money these guys.

meanwhile, Australian police (mostly NSW) facebook pages are run by absolute mad lads who aren't scared of humour.

It's not how big your drug bust is but rather how you use it.

fucking aussies, even the police are shitposters

So now since it's gone viral, a bunch of foreigners will probably try to mock their drug bust, are they going to extradite me for making fun of them too?

Drone strikes. How dare you mock their hard work from the safety of your computer chair 10000 miles away.

'can and will result in prosecution' No it won't. CPS wouldn't do it and even if they did it would be disregarded by the court as not in the public interest.

the NSW Police page is absolute gold and full of memes and shitposts, I love it
