“I smell weed” has been a classic for decades.

A long while back, I was harassed by the cops for “acting suspicious” while waiting for some friends at the mall. This quickly escalated to “suspected terrorist activity” for absolutely no reason I could discern or anyone afterwards could explain.

Cops just say shit. The best you can do is say you need to speak to a lawyer and clam up after that.
