It USED to be the police code for weed smoking/posession. I have a friend in GA that is a cop and he says that they stopped using that along time ago when the "420" thing came about.

Although many diverse theories exist to explain the origin of the term, it is widely accepted that in 1971, a group of teenagers at San Rafael High School in San Rafael, California used to meet after school at 4:20 p.m. to smoke cannabis at the Louis Pasteur statue.[3][4] The term became part of their group's salute, "420 Louis!",[5] and became popularized in the late 1980s by fans of The Grateful Dead.[6] Many North American cannabis users continue to observe 4:20 as a time to smoke communally. By extension April 20 ("4/20" in U.S. dating shorthand) has evolved into a counterculture holiday, where people gather to celebrate and consume cannabis.[7][8][9] In some locations this celebration coincides with Earth Week

on that one site explaining weed and 420 the only negative thing they can come up with against weed is... "Marijuana smoke contains some of the same cancer-causing compounds as tobacco, sometimes in higher concentrations.Studies show that someone who smokes five joints per week may be taking in as many cancer-causing chemicals as someone who smokes a full pack of cigarettes every day."

If you look at a clock face with a seconds-hand, it makes a peace sign at precisely 4:20.

What clock are you using? Because on mine, the minute hand and the hour hand are way too close to be considered anywhere near the peace sign...and I'm pretty blazed, if it was there to see, I'd see it.

I wonder if people over in Europe recognize our holidays and mostly 420. I remember reading about that in High Times Magazine.
