What things would you not buy a budding drug dealer for Christmas?

Asked by Aster (20023points) October 17th, 2013

If you had a relative, a male, who was beginning to deal drugs what are the things you would never buy him for Christmas or for his birthday as a teen? This is not a discussion of how it happened, who he is on your family tree or about his schoolwork or parents’ behavior. It is strictly about gifts.

A kitchen scale and a large collection of plastic bags?

I can’t make out whether this is meant to be a humorous question or not.

Not a car or cash/ pay for his own apt., opportunity is the key to stopping that crap.

Measuring spoons, razor blades, zip lock bags, a car, a phone, a hooker.

As usual I made an error . I meant a PILL drug dealer. As in Methodone, Xanax, Valium.

Aster, still a car or money, or a place to do his bidness. If he can’t meet with his people, he can’t do it.

He can deal at school , @KNOWITALL . And there’s a bus to make it go even smoother. Later, they go out in other guys’ cars.
Live up to your name!! lol

I have no idea how to answer this question.

I mean, it’s obvious you’re not considering an Oxycontin gift basket, so I don’t have to tell you that is a bad idea.

If I were considering a holiday gift for someone, I would of course consider their interests, in this case looking beyond their profitable and questionable hobby.

A very large life insurance policy with myself being the beneficiary.

A doctor’s scrip pad.

I wouldn’t buy him anything, because whatever I bought, he could sell or trade for drugs.

@Aster Trust me, if there’s one thing I’m sure of, it’s about how dealers work. I live in the meth capital of the US and here scripts are a huge moneymaking deal. Plus running with a gang in my younger days taught me a lot of lifetime lessons…lol

If I had a kid dealing at school, he sure wouldn’t get jack from me and I’d probably pull him out and put him in rehab.
