Long story, but basically some "friends" called me wanting to grab some dope. I oblige considering I was getting free shit. We go early am into Philly to cop...grab the bundle no problem. I go to a spot to get works, and this guy says he wants to trade bag for bag. He drops an empty dorito bag, which i know has nothing in it. As I call him out on it, he rushes and grabs me. His buddy comes up, and they start claiming to be cops/they will call the cops. Meanwhile, my "friends", seeing this, peel out and disappear. They eventually get the bundle, then disappear. not even a minute later, cops roll down the street.

Really, while I am still a bit angry I can't get high now, there's a whole lot of relief. I didn't get seriously injured, nothing besides drugs were taken, and I'm not locked up. I had to walk home from the city(I live right outside), which was not pleasant, but considering how things went I'd take a walk anyday over bars or hospital/rehab/anything that could have lead to

I'm starting to think, maybe life isn't about winning or losing, but rather breaking even?
 
Sounds like they were actually cops, if the police arrived moments after, but then again if they were cops they wouldn't have run off.

Bit of a bizarre pick up/ failed pick up, but like you say you escaped with your freedom which isn't all that bad considering the circumstances.

Not a chance, if they were cops they
1. would not have sold works
2. would have cuffed me and taken me down as soon as they saw drugs, and not taken the drugs and ran

the cop coming down was a mere coincidence, and did not stop or make any attempt to intervene in any sort of situation. The altercation was over by then, so better off. I'd rather not deal with cops given my current legal status
 
/\ Thats not true cops sell drugs they're called reverse stings. I've had friends get busted over it.

But yes number 2 is def true.

I'm rather curious about the rushing and grabbing part though. Did they restrain you? Was it just 2 people? You could have gouged the guy holding you in the eyes then kicked his friend in the balls like you were kicking a field goal.

I always find it curious when people get in situations like that why some people exercise their survival instincts and others become passive. I've been jumped 1 in asbury and almost robbed a second time. After the first experience I was so on edge driving around one day some guy jumped into my car claiming to have a gun under his shirt demanding my wallet.
Realizing how passive I was the first time and how badly I got my ass kicked it just wasn't happening again. So I wound up pushing his head sideways through my own window when I was sure he didn't have a gun.
After that he was disoriented for long enough for me to open the door in a panic while kicking his body out. I took off with the door open and drove about a mile speeding away before I slowed down to close it lol.

Idk man you got to be careful when you're running around the streets like that. I don't cop anymore in Asbury but at least carry some pepper spray or someshit. EVEN IF you are with "friends" you have no idea how lucky you are for walking away unscathed.

Just be careful in the future.
 
If you can not be respectful of others, do not comment.
Please be kind to others. Thanks.

my view on life is that there is no distinct purpose, and that you make your own path as you go along, and the meaning of your life is what you make it, sometimes bad things happen and shit fucks up, and other times you get lucky, its all even in the end somehow some cosmic ying and yanh
 
Consider yourself very lucky you didn't get seriously hurt or in trouble. I would be hell pissed off at getting burnt like that but at the same time relieved that it didn't get a whole lot messy.

The one grabbed my shirt and held on for life, while his buddy came up a bit later. He kept saying "I'm a cop", but then started saying "call the cops". I could tell by their motions they weren't really cops though. Honestly there are a bunch of things I could have done, but it all slipped my mind, especially since my ride took off. Had I slipped my shirt I may have kept the drugs, but honestly I guess my mind valued that shirt over some drugs(it was one of my favs)

All of what happened hasn't enticed the thought of getting clean? If not, why not?

Oh it has. It isn't so much I wanna get clean, but I can't stand the scene anymore, and if staying clear of it means I have to stay clean, so be it. I'm sick of dealing with scumbags, fiends, and cops, and not getting high is a small price to pay to not go through that

pretty much EXACTLY how I feel now
 
At night down the way there are a lot of robbers and scumbags.

How did they get the bundle? Did you just carry it in your pocket? You should always have a safe spot to hide your shit. Like a hole cut on the inside of your pants waist line or at least in your sock.
