what section do you think is the best section to post this under to ask to buy pot?

[/ QUOTE ]

Hmmm...he sent me the link, but I don't have it anymore - I think he put it in the personals, but I'm not 100% sure.

This is the only real worry I would have with it. the police setting up a online sting for a 40$ pot deal, O RLY?

Hey, look at this e-mail I just got, the gig is up!

I don't know if you aware, but you shouldn't open .zip files from unknown senders. [img]/images/graemlins/smirk.gif[/img]

it wouldn't be entrapment, entrapment isn't letting you do something illegal, it's putting a person in a situation that a person who would normally obey the law would be compelled to break it.

Offering someone drugs is CERTAINLY not entrapment.

And a "bag" is too vague. Was it a sammich bag, duffle bag, or flea bag?

This is important breaking news and we need better details dammit.

He spent $40. An individual of average intelligence should be able to deduce that he bought a sandwich bag (1/8 of an ounce) worth of pot.

[/ QUOTE ]there seems to be plenty of morons out lately. How anyone needs this explained to them is beyond me.

I bought pot last week: $30, 1/2 ounce, 1/4 to 1/5 of a sandwich bag. I'm too stoned to figure out how that means $40 buys 1/8 of an ounce of average weed and requires a sandwich bag. I'll leave that to the geniuses out there.

My point was that "a bag" in no way defines quantity.

Any fool knows a sandwich bag holds more than 1/8 ounce.

This boggles my mind.

That there are people this stupid? Yes.

[/ QUOTE ]

I think the stupid one is the seller. If the cops are going to set up a sting, they are going to try to nail somebody for selling. The buyer's primary risk is getting riped off: The seller robs him, or meets him somewhere, says he has to go inside to get the pot and never comes back, sells him oregano, etc. If I still smoked, and nobody I knew had a line on pot, I might take the risk. OTOH, I would never consider selling to a stranger from Craigslist.

You bought 1/2 an ounce for $30, WTF.

I was hoping someone could verify or debunk my theory.

Thanks
