Did we really need a court ruling to make this official?

If you open your door smoking a joint and there is a police officer standing on the other side of the door when you open it, he CAN come inside your house and search it.

It would seem one Rashad Walker did in fact need clarification stemming from a case in Newark in which Walker answered the door smoking some doobage when it was police who had come to call. They searched his place, and Walker said cops needed a warrant but the New Jersey Supreme Court disagreed. Most thinking people disagreed. Johnny has a healthy distrust of the police but if you're smoking in front of them and don't have a state medicinal card, you're gonna get busted.

Remember, should you get arrested for opening your door with a joint in one hand, the Hudson County clink doesn't sell Twinkies.
