Police Marijuana in Afghanistan

Weed.jpg

I can't recall exactly when this was, either 2008 or 2009, but we were in Kandahar, Afghanistan somewhere not far from the border town of Spin Boldak... anyhow. At one police check point we found the Afghan police to be completely stoned, none of them were wearing their uniform and they were generally in bad order... even less organised than usual.

The outpost had weed everywhere, all drying in the sun ready to be smoked, and smoke it they did... all day long, Can't say I blame them really, underpaid, under-equipped, worried for their safety and dragged into a conflict they likely didn't want. What would anyone do in this situation!
