On October 14, the Ocean City Police Department posted an announcement that they were looking for volunteers to help their officers with an impairment training event.

All the volunteers would have to do is smoke some cannabis, so the officers could become familiar with the signs of someone who was high.

We're looking for 12 - 14 volunteers (21+) to smoke cannabis for educational purposes while officers learn to recognize cannabis impairment. The Green Lab helps both officers and participants better understand the effects and levels of impairment caused by cannabis, all in a safe, controlled setting.

The catch?

They had to bring their own weed and ride a shuttle home.

Within hours of posting the announcement, they were flooded with volunteers, hoping to get high with the police.

More from Fox 5:

Organizers say 40 student officers will be participating and add that it is a great way to train the next generation of law enforcement safely and responsibly.

You guys, ten years ago, this would have been a sting operation for stoners too stupid to know better.

Today, it's just another day in a doped-up state!
