That's the unfortunate thing about weed being illegal. If you're in NY and decide you'd like some weed, you'll more or less end up needing to do business with these thug types; sometimes you won't, or there will be a middle man.
But yeah, going up to a seedy bronx neighborhood, sitting around on a stoop, waiting for a call back is not what I'd call pleasant. Cops know those block are flooded with narcotics, so they circle around, both in blue and whites and unmarked vehicles.
My friend (or rather, a dude I met while trying to make a purchase) got busted once by a plainclothes cop who looked like your average 30 year old guy from the Bronx, just stepped out of a grey minivan, and cuffed him against the wall.
They don't need to be paying all these cops to risk their lives so they can infiltrate the underground, get in touch with seedy people, and people who are downright violent thugs. Since I'm white, and don't dress with a definite urban style, I don't get much trust either, and have been asked if I was a cop. It feels uncomfortable, but since I have nothing to hide it's OK. But I wouldn't wanna do this as a job, betraying people you befriend.
If they legalized and taxed pot, it'd take a huge amount of business away from these gangs and operations, possibly eliminating a massive part of the problem.
Actually, my friend showed me an operation going on in Manhattan. They have a guy at "dispatch". He has dudes on bikes in all areas of Manhattan, who wear backpacks full of sealed cases of MJ.
They go to people apartments when they get dispatched, and show them the stuff, sell it, bike to the next client. Unbelievable. I would assume such a thing has at least 30 guys at any given hour of the day, possibly many more, out on their bikes, all under an organized system. Invisible to the naked eye, but something truly huge, with an economy independent of the stock market, the tax system, or any regulation.
USA: Cash in on this. You're stupid if you don't. The people clearly want weed, and if Phelps does it, who says you have to be an underachiever if you smoke it from time to time?
