Are you kidding me?? ?? N being raised on 38th st with the hookers and pimps...had to c mom in action going up to the cars with a cabbage patch kid in arms lol then crack... Its a GIVEN
Today when I was walking up Eight Avenue somewhere between 37th & 42nd, a disheveled, stocky black guy with blood shot eyes, battered jeans and a black tee-shirt, approached me in a discreet/clandestine manner. He immediately asked me if I was interested in 'scoring' Percocet, MJ, oxycodone, cocaine or adderall. I simply smiled and shook my head hoping that this possible hussler would conceive that I wasn't interested. It worked and after asking where I was from, he told me to have a blessed day. I gawked back to witness him approach three other individuals, I can safely assume that his ideal clientele were wealthy appearing males, based on their similar characteristics. Each, like me, wore sunglasses, exhibited their smart phones and dressed in formal business attire. Although there are a few and far between willing to purchase drugs if approached in public, it seemed as if this guy's only possible hot iron to strike were caucasian males that flashed some sort of visible wealth. Upon nearing the NYT building/Port Authority Bus Terminal, I mistakingly made eye contact w/ another chancy loiterer. As I'm passing and staring, he culled out a wrinkled bag from his baggy jeans and then pointed at me followed by pointing down at his bag. I was pretty surprised that this was my second drug related encounter so I decided not to even look back at his face. It was pretty interesting that I felt slightly intimidated by these likely drug pushers, especially in this area. Now I was born in 1992 so I don't have any memories of the old seedy theater district (#1 phenomenon would be time travel) during that relatively long stretch of history when NY was down and out but I've watched documentaries and seen movies based in that era to know what did exist. Prostitutes, Rampant and nearly open market drug transactions, Adult stores etc. Please answer these questions with the best input you can give...Is there an increase in dealing going on in the Garmet/Theater district? May it be a recent trend? What would the police have done if I told them my account? Are more ppl resorting to selling drugs due to the crappy economy and/or are there more drug operations infiltrating NYC? Do you think that NYC is deteriorating due to the economy? Any additional broad feedback would be much appreciated! THX!
Go to the police immediately, bring them large coffees light and sweet and assorted donuts from Dunkin and they will get down to the business of solving your case.
