Transcription
A Twitter post by Kylie Cunningham @kyyylieeeee that reads “today at the airport one of the drug dogs set off a false alarm and officers rushed over to find out the dog had alerted them for a piece of pizza. the handler just patted his head and goes “it’s okay buddy i know pizza always confuses you” and gave him his treat anyways.”
This dog 100% has his handler trained
Even better: the pizza dude and the handler are both on the take, and its how they get the drugs through security.
get the drugs through securityconfiscate “suspicious” pizza slices for “internal examination”
My son got stopped at an immigration checkpoint. He was freaking out because he had a weed vape in his pocket. After a car search they realized that the k9 alerted on his dog who was in heat.
Lucky
more like stupid. do not carry illegal weed vapes through the immigration checkpoint and you don’t want to freak out. it is what i would do if i really wanted to immigrate somewhere.
Immigration checkpoints in Southern California aren’t just for immigrants. They stop everyone to scan for immigrants, and you have to pass through them when you go to certain places. Weed vapes are legal under state law in California, but illegal under Federal law.
ok, interesting trivia i wasn’t aware of, but it really doesn’t change much, the core of the problem still is:
- if it is legal, you don’t have to freak out.
- if you are freaking out, do not carry illegal contraband through checkpoint. it is really simple.
- (if freaking out is your kink, then by all means, do continue)
Not all of them are in fixed locations. Some of them are pop-ups, like a DUI checkpoint.
FWIW (and tangentially related), anyone traveling with weed is best served by keeping it in the trunk, rather than in the passenger compartment. Police have more freedom to go through the passenger compartment under the guise of concern over weapons that might be used against them, as opposed in the trunk, which can be viewed as a separate container and is less likely to be searched.
Ah, another ulterior motive for the rise of SUVs and crossovers.
I love how I live under such a fascist dictatorship that someone not from here can’t even begin to comprehend what life is like here…like it’s just baffling to normal people that our lived experience is even possible to exist haha.
…please send international aid.
Texas. Driving north from padre there’s a stop. They normally just wave you through. A friend came through it last year with 14 guns in the car. She told them and they waved her through- didn’t even open the trunk. Vapes, edibles, and weed are legally shipped to most states but that doesn’t mean police won’t fuck with you over it. They asked if he had any drugs, guns, explosives, or people in the car that they couldn’t see. He said he had a cbd vape. They didn’t care - just started searching the car where their dog alerted.
well if it is known point, that is even more reason not to tempt a fate. i am sorry you are in a situation your country is right now and i swear i am not trying to be an asshole, but it really is a no-brainer for me.
Meh. Fuck the state.
if you’re gonna do it, at least do it semi-smart
bury it in a trash bag in your trunk or something and claim it’s from cleaning up road side debris
yeah. but we are talking about real world here, not your teenage anarchist wet dream. and in the real world, unfortunately, it is always the state which ends up fucking you, it is never the other way around. see, the person in the story, no matter whether real or imaginary, wanted to emigrate from somewhere and the reason was probably… guess what - the state.
The checkpoint is in Texas about an hour north of Padre. Just driving home from the beach.
FYI, if you are in the US, “legal weed” is a misnomer, it’s still a controlled substance on the federal level and technically illegal to possess. If you aren’t a Citizen, please don’t let the authorities find out about any weed you use, they’ll literally try to deport you for a victimless “crime”. If you are naturalized, do not admit to have used weed before your oath ceremony. I disagree with the law as it is, but just letting y’all know.
I’m not sure how this is 🥺🥺🥺, the trainer is literally reinforcing negative behaviour
Well the whole thing is a charade to enable arbitrary searchers…
False hits are considered positive behaviour. Drug dogs are just for show to violate citizens rights. A loophole.
Drug dogs are probably less accurate than the pseudo science “lie detector” test.
Police dogs are even worse. Their entire purpose is to find and severely injure a suspect and turn them into a felon. Here’s how it works. Cops release dog on suspect. Dog finds suspect and begins to severely attack suspect. Suspect tries to fight the dog ripping a hole in its arm or leg. Suspect is now guilty of assaulting an officer. At this point is doesn’t matter if the suspect was guilty of anything else. They are now a felon.
It’s 🥺🥺🥺 because it’s a fake story made by a child.
He is a drug AND pizza dog. His trainer probably gets an awful lot of free pizza.
Sausage is a common first step in training dogs from what ive read. Train the pup on find the chunks of sausage the handler has hidden and he gets them, then switch to treats, then swap out the sausage for drugs/ bombs.
I wonder if the dog signals whenever he smells pizza with sausage on it, remembering the first stage of the training.
“negative”
Hard disagree
Given that it’s a drug dog, getting people pulled over and potentially locked up for no reason is indeed a negative. More so if this was in the US
Well for one, I was joking… But that’s not really how drug dogs work. You wouldn’t be locked up for a false positive unless the cops literally plant something on you, and at that point I’m not sure if it even matters if a dog was involved or not.
Saying “the dog barked at him” isn’t evidence, they’d still need to produce the actual drugs.
Fair, that’s not likely to happen in most countries. Getting a deep search because a doggo took a liking to your lunch is still going to be annoying as hell though.
This whole thing about “drug dogs” is junk science in service of security theater. Laughably phony.
The sad part is the animal abuse - both dogs and humans.
yep they’re usually going by the owner’s hints which means it’s technically 4A violation. they’re just an excuse to circumvent probable cause by creating it ad hoc.
Traffic stop K-9 units are terrible by every metric. Passive sniffers at an airport or similar aren’t the same. (Though drugs are the least useful thing they can watch for)

Well-trained dogs can provide useful services to a community in thwarting or arresting violent criminals, sniffing out dangerous substances or finding people. They can be a valuable part of both security and rescue forces.
But they’re only as good as their handlers and trainers. When the security force themselves are violent criminals, armed to the teeth with dangerous substances and making people disappear…
Let’s just not forget that those dogs are also trained to smell exposives which can be a cool thing not to have aboard an airplane.
Then those dogs, in airport and in police settings, are correctly cared for. And even if acab, these dogs aren’t tools of fascism.

Airport security has never actually caught a bomb or a terrorist
Citation needed.
Alternatively I’d accept “rarely” instead of “never”.
Citation needed.
Apparently it “happened” once in 1972 with an obvious briefcase on a plane with a bomb threat.
I’ll accept any other tale. Even just one.

Man who planned to shoot up Atlanta’s airport is arrested in a terminal following a tip, police say | abc7.com https://abc7.com/post/man-planned-shoot-atlantas-airport-is-arrested-terminal-following-tip-police-say/18046411/
The justification is that they’re supposed to smell explosives (and they fail at that with an incredible rate anyways), but they’re used to harass non-white people. Security theater doesn’t actually help with security.
Let’s just not forget that this stuff is pseudo-scientific security theater.
Probable cause generator, maybe. Pseudoscience, no — dogs can be trained to have low false positive rates. It just so happens they’re trained to generate probable cause, more than they are detecting drugs/bombs.
Cadaver dogs are pretty cool too… But those don’t need to be cops.
Drug and bomb sniffing dogs are separate though. A dog can’t be both.
I didn’t know, thanks for the information.
This feels made up but it made me smile regardless
100%. no professional trainer rewards unwanted behaviour, that’s why they are professional trainers.
dumb people on twitter, who think unwanted behaviour is cute, on the other hand…
no professional trainer
We’re talking about cops, not professionals. The dog’s job is to watch the cop handler and bark when they indicate, but not be too obvious about it.
jesus, crawl back to your conspiracy hole.
It’s established scientific fact at this point. Police dogs have a 5-10% false positive rate in laboratory conditions which means it’s surely even higher in the field. Thats a completely unacceptable failure rate for justifying the
theft“civil asset forfeiture” of brown people’s possessions. Please educate yourself on the matter instead of being a mindless bootlicker.Edit: here is just the first link (probably not the best) for the search “drug dog efficacy study” to prove my point. https://pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/24631776/
Please educate yourself on the matter instead of being a mindless bootlicker.
this is also established scientific fact? can i get some peer reviewed study, you clown?

Where’s your study, clown? It’s hilarious to see people demanding citations when they’ve got absolutely nothing.

I…gave you a peer reviewed study? So have a few others. You’ve got some reading to do today, but I doubt you will.
I…gave you a peer reviewed study?
you… you did not. i am talking about the statement i replied to.
HERE IT IS:
We’re talking about cops, not professionals. The dog’s job is to watch the cop handler and bark when they indicate, but not be too obvious about it.
why are you trying to steer the discussion away from it? and - bonus question - do you think it will work? 😂
It’s a big world out there, mate, with a loooooot of people in it. Do you never, ever, ever do a thing that you’re not supposed to do?
Do you never, ever, ever do a thing that you’re not supposed to do?
people do stuff they are not supposed to do when they think there are not really consequences (say using recreational drugs), and people make mistakes. this is neither of these cases, this is intentionally doing something you know will have negative consequences and no positive one. and that is not what a professional does.
i am not a professional trainer, and i still do not intentionally reward dog for bad behaviour. that is fucked up thing to do, it is not cute, and you are shooting both yourself and your dog into your own leg.
same as professional drivers do not intentionally run red light and professional pilots do not continue landing when tower shouts at them “RUNWAY INCURSION, LANDING CLEARANCE CANCELED, GO AROUND!”
ok, this belonged to completely different discussion
i sometimes do things i am not supposed to do.but there are better and worse times for that. and the moment when doing bad thing may have disastrous consequences on your life (life fucking up your immigration process, which probably took some time and money to set up) is probably not the one to chose.probably
But not impossibly.

while my answer above was for the wrong discussion, this is still objectively stupid answer. the fact you were unbothered by me suddenly talking about immigration process and you still picked up random word to negate it pretending that is discussion is like the most hilarious discussion fail i have ever seen on the internet.
👍
As far as I know, they don’t even bring drug dogs into US airports. They are almost exclusively explosive-sniffing dogs. The TSA doesn’t look for drugs in the first place.
Perhaps it’s possible US customs could be using drug dogs, but I have never heard of that regarding airports. I could be wrong though.
little did the handler know, the pizza was filled with drugs
I get it. Pizza is like crack to me, too
And then I started vomiting it was so cute. The dog collapsed from joy and also started vomiting, as did the trainer. Soon the whole terminal was vomiting and crying tears of happiness. And then we all fucked as doves flew overhead shitting out rainbows and butterflies.

Laughing at the idea of you walking in on a terminal-wide orgy, seeing dogs, and thinking “Hmm, not sure this is legal with them here.”
And then the alien space bats arrived.
Ohh but when I confuse drugs for pizza get a lifetime ban from pizza Hut
The dog just figured out how addictive pizza can be and assumes it is a drug.
But also… What if they hid drugs in the pizza crust? 🤔
I’m guessing this pupper has encountered a few shroom pizzas in its travels.
Pizza is just that good.
