Police stole my bong!
Discussion
OP, instead of continuing to get your panties in a bunch, you might like to have a look at s19 of PACE 1984.
I haven't included part (4), as that relates to electronic data being put into a format that can be "taken away". Haymarket may end up doing that later, I guess.
Section 19 of the Police and Criminal Evidence Act 1984 said:
19 General power of seizure etc.
(1) The powers conferred by subsections (2), (3) and (4) below are exercisable by a constable who is lawfully on any premises.
(2) The constable may seize anything which is on the premises if he has reasonable grounds for believing—(a)that it has been obtained in consequence of the commission of an offence; and(b)that it is necessary to seize it in order to prevent it being concealed, lost, damaged, altered or destroyed.
(3) The constable may seize anything which is on the premises if he has reasonable grounds for believing—
(a) that it is evidence in relation to an offence which he is investigating or any other offence; and
(b) that it is necessary to seize it in order to prevent the evidence being concealed, lost, altered or destroyed.
My bold, above.(1) The powers conferred by subsections (2), (3) and (4) below are exercisable by a constable who is lawfully on any premises.

Dibble - am I alone in thinking that someone who
(a) admits using illegal drugs
(b) posts his name on this website; and
(c) then posts where he lives as well
might (just potentially) be an easy bust?!
Good luck with that.(a) admits using illegal drugs
(b) posts his name on this website; and
(c) then posts where he lives as well
might (just potentially) be an easy bust?!
"All units, be on the lookout for a guy known as Spitfire123, who doesn't live near some cemetary, and has admitted to having a bong that may have micro deposits of a banned substance on it".
Oh, and I'm behind 7 proxies.

There are plenty of PHers much more tech savvy than I am that would be able to dig up the usual dirt on a poster and "out" him (or her), should they so desire (which for clarity I'm not at all suggesting they do).Me? If I could be arsed, I'd go the traditional route of a quick entry in one of the national internal Police bulletins, asking whether, oooh, I don't know, had anyone recently bashed in a flat door to stop a water leak, and taken a bong while they were there, suspecting it was evidence of drug use? Because if you have, have a look at this link [insert link to this thread here], then if he ever does apply, file in the round one under the desk.
Or consider arresting him for a minty fresh fraud by false representation...

And when I've smoked a dozen or so nine bars' worth through it, and I'm completely off my tits, I'll be nearly ready to spout as much bks as you do.

14,163 identical posts. This must be a record. Do you talk like this in real life.Report it, it's a REAL crime.
No good whatsoever is served by stealing the OP's bong, but then no good whatsoever is served by maintaining the prohibition on cannabis.
