Honestly Newark JC and Paterson all do have open air markets, but if you are a 100% virgin to the area it can be difficult unless you run into a lower level high risk taker dealer. Take Paterson for instance. There are streets known specifically for powder coke, then another block for base, and certain crews for dope etc..
At the powder coke spot in PTOWN for example, if you wetn there and said hey do you guys got coke etc.. by any chance? Or ur like how much is it? or say anything to give the impression you've never copped there b4 they will probably pass on the sale to avoid the possibility that your a narc or something. If you go to the coke spot and go I need 2 twenties. with confidence, no question of what they are selling, etc... theyll serve you even if theyve never seen you most times. These guys are pretty good at reading people, and I will say, it does help to look like a drug user lol. If you got a spotless car, a healthy muscular body, and are clueless about the area youd be hard pressed to get served lol.
My friend does this sometimes, but after I explain it, I will telly ou why I don't recommend it. Hell go to a new spot and if they are apprehensive hell be like i aint no cop look I just copepd dope, and show some bags. It's worked for him many times, but honestly if you do that to the wrong person i.e. a user not dealer, you will get robbed. But if you got empties you can flash those. Me....if I get questioned I'll pull up my sleeves and be like bro u def dont gotto worry (track marks with active signs of use).
But if you have no luck on your own, or absolutely no idea where and who is sellin what, suck it up and find oen of the hundreds of crack/dope/coke/pcp/whatever users and offer them 10 bucks to help you out (which they get ONLY AFTER the transaction is done). Tell them right off the bat that you can not and WILL not hand the money off to them, you have to be the one making the exchange wit the dealer. If they are nto cool with that move on, they are trying to beat you.
Better yet, find an addict on the street who does your drug of choice. tell him you;'ll peel him off a bag or two, rather than give money, other wise most people will just go to the cheapest closest spot because they just want that $. If your giving them bags, they will awnt to get the fire. If they are gettin bags for themself they are gonna want the best possible. Again, tell them in advance YOU have to be the one who does the hand to hand with the dealer, and if he can't do that sry but your nto interested. Don't trust anyone. Don't let anyone in your car. And never ever EVER hand the money over till the dope is in your hand. I have never had a dealer who wasn't trying to pull shit demand you give himm the $ first.
Also, know the prices in the area your copping, if said drug is usually 40 bucks dont offer 60 b/c only cops would over-pay on drugs, no addict in their right mind wants to pay more than 'retail' lol. Cops will offer to buy an ounce of coke at 50/g lol.
For me, I often avoid a full fledged cold cop and just peel off a bag or whatever for a local to bring me to the spot.
In all honestty, regardless of race, if you go to Paterson Newark or Jersey City and leave empty handed, you probably lack the genetic traits of the drug game lol. Each said city is like the Super-Walmart of drugs. Believe me, dealers love white suburbon dudes. It's not your skin color but your approach that is severely flawed. When they got people payin for a single bag in change, a white-suburban drive by in-and-out dude buying a few buns or a brick is a treat lol. They WANT yoru money.
They are drug dealers. Do you honestly think they give a fuck what race you are? They give a fuck about staying a free man and making money.
I just put my wallet down the front of boxer-briefs next to my junk whenever I am in a bad neighborhood. If I have a belt on too I seriously doubt that anyone is going to get it.
Your probably right in most cases but I did have a cop pull the elastic wasteband on my basketball shorts to look down the front of my pants and back to see if anything would fall out or be blatantly visible. I don't think cops can/will/or even want to go further than that out on the street lol. Imagine a cop swiping someones bare ass or cupping their balls to look for bags while all the passer-bys pop out their phone and youtube the video. Don't think that would go over too well with the public lol. Especially if you start tellin wtf why is my dick in your hand now or WTF your fingers in my ass officer!
If they have any reason at ALL like you have no ID on you or something and you end up getting brought in, that's another story. I just don't think cops can do more than pat you down on the street. I mean It wouldn't be appropriate to be in a major intersection and have a cop pullin your pants down and looking into your asshole with people walkin buy, a daycare with liittle kids playing outside, and nuns out to lunch.
I wonder if you gto brougth in and just purposely shat your self if thatd help them decide whether or not to strip search you haha.
