Police Letting England Fans Smoke Dope

ENGLAND fans will be allowed to smoke dope before Sunday’s crunch clash with France — to keep them calm.

Cops in Lisbon plan to crack down on drunk supporters while turning a blind eye to those spotted puffing on a spliff.

Pot-smoking fans have been assured they will not be arrested, cautioned — or even have their drugs confiscated.

Last night experts said the Portuguese police’s “Here We Blow” policy would reduce chances of a punch-up between rival fans.

Alan Buffry of the Legalise Cannabis Alliance said: “If people are drinking they lose control, if they smoke cannabis they don’t.

“Alcohol makes fans fight. But cannabis smokers will be shaking hands and singing along together.”

Dutch police used a similar policy in Euro 2000 and England’s hooligan element were too stoned to fight.

A Lisbon police spokeswoman said: “If people cause a problem through drugs and become a menace then police will take action. But when this doesn’t happen why should the police be the ones making the fuss?”

More than 600 officers will be on duty for England’s opening group game at Lisbon’s Stadium of Light.

Fans who seem to be drunk may be breath-tested and refused entry.

WOW :eek7:

woah








*buys ticket and flies over there immediately*

I can't picture English soccer hooligans shaking hands and singing...but whatever works.

Before anyone gets too excited,check out the quoted source. "The Sun" has almost as much credibilty in Britain as the National Enquirer.

They are talking about making marijuana totally legal in Canada though. The pres. wants to produce and distribute it. If that happens, all I can say is that the U.S. can do nothing but follow the leader b/c it would increase cannibus traffic immensley(sp).

heh it would be so weird here in canada, if they started selling blunts and stuff like cigarettes, although i doubt they'd sell blunts, they'd most likely look like cigarettes. But damn that'd be nuts, going to the store and asking for a pack of weed or somethign.

Yeah, no kidding. And the amount of people/teens who would travel across the border just to get high for the day would be insane.

I came across this (http://www.medicalmarihuana.ca/legalize.html) I couldn't find anything on Fox News website(where I heard it on tv) but this was the closest thing. The segment on Fox was the actual Pres. speaking about it.

damn thanks for the link texasf355f1, from that article it makes it seem as if Weed is harmless, heh,

now thats writing for you ;)

This is a glorious victory for stoners all over, soon the entire world will grow man-boobs, forget to do everyday chors, and will eventually get skitzo.


haha, i'm kidding.
