Do you deal cannabis?
Yeah I have done.
Some would say what you’re doing is immoral. What do you think?
I could tell you several horror stories about drugs… But if I’m selling psychedelics it would depend very much also on what they’re used to. I would not want to give them something they’d have a bad time on, for example, and so I’d want to make sure I weigh them almost their own personal dose.
But it’s still wrong isn’t it?
I’d definitely want to have a chat with each person. I think it would just be irresponsible not to, really. I just try to give them a few words of advice beforehand, you know, don’t make any irrational decisions whilst you’re on it.
I wouldn’t sell smack, for example, or heroin. That’s not my cup of tea at all.
Hallucinogens?
A bit, from time to time. Just me and my mates really. It does have a bit of a better of a profit margin, but in some ways I consider it to be just easier. It’s more fun, it’s better value. I think a lot of people find dealing quite addictive in a lot of ways actually. It’s an adrenaline rush for some people. For others, it is purely economical, and they do just need the money. It’s definitely been a mixture of the two at times.
Cannabis in particular is very much built around friendship networks, especially in drug dealing. Well, maybe not friendship groups – they may not like each other per say – but there’s people they’d rather do business with than others, so they’ll choose their preference.
