Is it a game?

    Coming home from work a few day ago, I came across A Garda van with a Garda dog and a few Garda at the side of the road.

    Now it must have been a drug search so the person they had just stood there stared out at the road, no interaction with the Garda, they looked absolutely calm and very dangerous, no tracksuit, no chains, no fade haircut.

    We could not pass for a while so got to see a bit of the interaction.

    So it it just a game between the Garda and the drug dealers a lot of the time?

    It's unclear what was happening from reading the OP.

    So sure, a game.

    Someone can look dangerous that is not predigested what struck me more was his absolute calm detachment, that is why i though the Garda are just a nuisance to him or its just a game to him, this was happening on the side of the road so we could not pass for a while.

    If my car was pulled in and searched I'd do my best to act calm too. No point getting hysterical and getting arrested for verbally abusing a garda.

    They generally know who they're pulling in for a search though, it's not a random way for them to pass the time.

    It's all about the game and how you play it.

    Indeed it is.

    Gas tho isn't it .. like a lot of people dislike drug dealers and the crime that comes with it. Yet so many people have no problem putting sh*t up their nose.
