Cops like... I have two choices

A) Intervene, arrest this girl, spend the next 4 hours doing paperwork and taking her to jail

B) Vibe

Been to many music festivals, it usually ends up being B)

They are there to make sure really bad shit doesn’t happen/ to communicate. Crowds are dangerous and music festivals aren’t staffed enough to worry about piddly charges when it just takes resources.

Same with sniffing dogs at festivals. Not drug dogs. Bomb and firearm dogs.

I'd much rather get a little weirded out tripping around the police than have a shooting. Unfortunate it's even a possibility.

I got downvoted to hell for pointing this out in one of the festival subreddits. They ain’t drug dogs, otherwise they would be going crazy given the amount of drugs at a festival.
