I know some cops who smoke pot but only when they're off duty. If there Superior's new they smoked they would probably be fired . So if you want to be a cop and still smoke pot do it very discreetly and don't tell anyone.Don't get stoned while you're in the academy wait until after your hired because of drug tests and lie detector tests. If your just wondering if it's possible for cops to smoke pot then yes some cops do.

The answer is you could have smoked pot, but not be using it when you apply. There is a lie detector test you would have to take. Also, do not lie, or you would not get the job. I had an office asked on cross exam how he knew how pot smelled. He said, 'I use to smoke it.'

They will always tell you no, but there are always some corrupt (Bad Apples) that sneak and do it after being hired. These hypocrites ruin the honor and pride for all the good guys out there who are in fact doing their job, upholding the laws, and get crapped on by everyone including me(One of the biggest police haters in the world) because of the bad cops. I do actually think there are some good cops out there somewhere, although I have yet to meet one!

You can't actively be smoking it but if you did in the past they usually don't care... unless you lie to them about it.
LSD is the one thing that will knock you out of the running, even if you only did it once and a long time ago.

No, police departments have a "Zero Tolerance" policy for drug usage among their officers; they do drug testing on their officers on a regular basis (at irregular periods) and whoever has a "Hot" result, gets either reprimandred or fired.

I don't think so because don't cops have this drug testing thing??? In my opinon I don't thing so because cops are hired to put "bad guys" in jail, but if they are a "bad guy" why would they be Hired??

Growing up, my friend's parents used to get their pot from a cop. I'm sure he smoked it, too. I'm guessing now it's a bit more strict, but depending on where you live, the rules may be more relaxed or strict.
Hey, wasn't there a recent news broadcast about a cop and his wife calling 911 because they ate pot laced brownies and thought they were dying? Hehe, yes, you can be a cop and do that. Unfortunately sad, but true.

not if you've smoked it recently. You will have to pass a drug test and a lie detector test. They tend to forgive some drug use as long as it is not recent.
