Dont sell ziplocks in Philly,

[puffinpass]

wtf???? how do these pigs get away with this??? how doesnt something like this make it in news headlines??? these cops r legal criminals, just like the assholes who caused the whole loan scam...white collared criminals. imo white collared criminals r waaay worse than ne street thug just tryna survive.

Maybe if pot smokers stopped trying to insult other peoples intelligence it would work out,I mean lets face it,I bet out of every single stamp collector in the country,or jewelery or coin,any one of those collectors................NOT ONE,would use baggies like these,there is only one use for such a baggie and ya know it,stop liein!!Crack and twenty dollar dime bags,I got no use for either one!!

It seems as soon as cops become involved with drugs and the money they get corrupt as hell. Human nature I guess.And another reason the powers that be want to keep it all illegal.

Philly has a long history with police corruption. Currently in philly about 100 drug convictions are in question over a Nacrotics cop who got his snich to lie so he could raid people. It's a peculiar city. I'm glad I don't live there.

i have never,and i mean never, fucking ever seen bags with superman,batman,moneybags...but now i'm gonna do some drugs because now they have marketing,advertising and thats just fucking crossing the line.

hey rojo what was your point, your on a pot forum if i took your baggies you would not use anymore because you just have to have your superman baggies? do they match your wonderwoman pajamas?

Use small glass jars and offer a discount if they bring back the jars - consider bud container recycling.

those are totally "jewelry bags". I use them to weigh my swarovski crystals on my "digital jewelry scale". both sold from my local head shop/ jewelry supply store.

If I ever owned my own shop I would have stealth surveillance camera's in addition to normal ones. The normal's would be a distractor. Second u need to send the feed over the internet to another location. Then if the cops pull crap like that post it on Youtube and there fucked.

It's bad enough that cops steal from growers who have a lot of money...but from small business owners who aren't exactly raking in the profits of the drug trade...more like eeking out a living in a hard economy? All that cash was most definitely going for their bills and lottery obligations and so forth...these aren't drug raids gone bad...just raids...bad raids gone bad...

Thats how the story ended up breaking.A shop owner had a hidden surveillance camera that fed to his home computer.Once the newspaper got a hold of that it was on.Doing this took exemplary bravery from the store owner since most of these storekeepers are immigrants who are afraid to say anything for fear of retaliation.Most of the shopkeeps come from places where police corruption is a given.

Its a fuckin 2 yr old story!!Old news,and besides that,them baggies serve only one purpose,crack and 20 dollar dimes,period.
Corrupt police have been around since the first police force was made,nothing new there.You can still buy ziplock bagies in PA,all kinds of them,just not the ones that hold a teenth or a 20 dollar rock!!
You can get sandwich style bags,half gallon bags,gallon bags,the skies the limit on baggies in PA......you just cant get the ones purposely designed for low level street dealers slingin beat dimes and sellin rocks,and I got no trouble with that.
Anyone here on these boards that needs little baggies like that is straight out hustlin,beatin other people out of there dollar for there gain.
The picture was from the origional story,they are the "baggies" in ?.They dont even give you a gram anymore,they stuff 7/10 of a gram in them and grab 30 dollars a pop from dimwits willing to get raped,I say make your own fucking little baggies if thats what your doin.Anyone bitchin cuz they are for "jewelery"or"stamps"or"coins" is full of shit,there for beat sacks to be sold by beat dealers to beat users,period.
I left my wonderwoman pajamas at yer mom's last week,teller I want them back,I feel sexy in them

^ I agree in one sense that those baggies are for nothing more than street hustling but alot of places sell freaking grinders and papers still which from a shopkeepers point of view as long as there is a demand for it they will sell it.I disagree completely with the whole street hustler thing to begin with.My issue with the story( which I just read about a week ago) is the tactics and theft that incorporates the operation.The desire to hide from the cameras and a general use of intimidation and force applied.The hypocrisy is overwhelming.I can travel less than 5 miles in my rural little area and buy a cheap plastic grinder. a pack of papers, a tobacco rolling machine, and for a while there a small bag of salvia.Walmart sells pots, plant food, lights, ph testing kits, and plenty of useful growing utensils that could be blamed for the rise of manufacturing in America.Even if it was a ten year old story its good to get it out.Stories like this one are what is needed if the masses are ever going to get a clue.I think crack and meth are horrible blights on our society but going after the packaging is not the answer and the cops know it.Its an easy target with guaranteed cash on them.

Gotta love California!
Thats why we left the east coast!

makes me fucking sick.........

wow man, that's what i just thought when i closed the tab.
You know... i wish i could nail boards up my door, and live without ever showing myself in a public place again. I am truly scared to leave my house and enter the public because of shit like that. I need cannabis as a medicine for my mental and physical well being. I have it on me all the time. What happens if someone finds out? Will i go to prison and encounter draconic law enforcement? I don't know that, but what i know is that is happened to other people before. And that really scares me.
Be tough, trust nobody and watch your own back! It's not like it's JUST going to be a fine or something. No, no employment, no benefits, no relief. watch out brothers and sisters!
