‘Coke’ Dealers Boldly Peddle Drugs on Sidewalks of Broadway
New York Post ^

Posted on 10/15/2022 10:11:06 PM PDT by nickcarraway

Things have gotten so bad in New York City that drug dealers are brazenly selling what appears to be cocaine — sometimes neatly assembled on sidewalk tables — on Broadway in trendy NoMad and farther north in Times Square.

Some of the drug-slingers openly solicit, saying, “Weed, coke. Weed, coke” as pedestrians walk by, a disgusted local restaurateur said.

The Post observed two different buyers approach dealers on the corner of West 27th Street and Broadway earlier this month and hand over cash in exchange for plastic baggies containing a mysterious white substance.

I used to work a block away from there.

I’ve called South Carolina home for more than a decade now, but the place I grew up in is gone. I can visit an empty shell that depresses me, but I can never really go back to where I grew up. And it hurts deep inside that there’s nothing left to go back to. It doesn’t exist anymore and I miss it. It’s like being from nowhere.

Where do they think they are? San Francisco?? You know, once upon a time, Giuliani had substantially cleaned up NYC. That was 20 years ago. Go woke, go broke.

I'm your mama, I'm your daddy
I'm that n____ in the alley
I'm your doctor when in need
Want some coke? Have some weed
You know me, I'm your friend
Your main boy, thick and thin

I'm your pusherman
I'm your pusherman

I think if my parents knew I had that album when I was about 10 years old they would have freaked.

How is this any different from the situation in Haight-Ashbury in the late-60s / early-70s? As a young lad, I experienced that first-hand!

“Weed, coke. Weed, coke”

"Hey, get your Fentanyl here. George Floyd special, two lines, no waiting." What could possibly go wrong?

Sung by Steppenwolf -—

You know I smoked a lot of grass
Oh lord I popped a lot of pills
But I never touched nothin
That my spirit could kill
You know I’ve seen a lot of people
Walking around with tombstone in their eyes
But the pusher don’t care, ah
If you live or if you die
God damn hmm the pusher
God damn hey I say the pusher
I say god damn god damn the pusherman

You know the dealer, the dealer is a man
With a lot of grass in his hand
Ah but the pusher is a monster
Good god he’s not a natural man
The dealer, for a nickel lord
He’ll sell you lots of sweet dreams
Ah but the pusher’llruin your body
Lord he’ll leave... he’ll leave your mind to scream
God damn ahh the pusher.
God damn, god damn the pusher.
I said god damn god, god damn the pusherman

Well lord if I were the president
Of this land you know I’d declare
Total war on the pusherman
I’d cut him if he stands and
I shoot him if he’d run and
I’d kill him with my bible
And my razor and my gun
God damn aww the pusher.
God damn... the pusher.
I said god damn, god damn the pusherman!

The democrats are in direct business with the drug cartels.

It’s obvious.

A scalper sold out of tickets to Les Misérables and asked if I would like some crack instead. I said, "sure!"

I feel the same , and I am from a small town in eastern CT that has gone to hell . Drugs , illegals , crime , etc...unrecognizable from when I grew up in the 50’s / 60’s . Hellhole . Just the other day one of my oldest friends sent me a news photo of a drug bust that happened 2 house away from where I grew up . Cops everywhere . Sad . I’m in Japan . No drug problem , little crime , people one doesn’t know will greet one on the street ...Kinda like the 50’s in the USA ...

#NewYorkStateofAnarchy. The “blow” is probably spiked with Fentanyl. Certain death for the inexperienced.
