Cocaine user demands consumer rights
Filed under: Fraud, Consumer Complaints
Just when you think there's nothing dumb left to report, up pops "Disgruntled drug buyer calls police to complain."
Now, granted, this is Cape Cod, where it was winter right through the end of April, and where rain has been and continues to be the forecast through May 9. Cape Codders aren't at their best right now.
Still, it's hard to believe that a man called the police at 12:40 a.m., "asking them to arrest another man because he had given the man $150 to buy cocaine, but the seller never handed over the drugs."
Maybe the caller had been smoking too much pot, now that small amounts of marijuana have been decriminalized in Massachusetts. Then there it was, almost 1 a.m. and the coke still hadn't arrived.
The cops have not made any arrests so far, the paper reported. But the anonymous caller did rat out the drug dealer by leaving the bad guy's contact information.
There's just no dealer loyalty these days.

Now that I think about it, it might not be a bad idea to allow people to turn their own dealers in, in exchange for amnesty, I have a feeling it would clean up drug crime pretty quickly actually.

He must not have had too many joints before he called the police or he would have given them his name and address.

Pretty ignorant that you would consider the reason for this man's foolishness is due to pot consumption.
Grow up.

Sounds like a logical explanation to me. Why so confrontational? Nobody is trying to grab your stash.

This author thinks he is funny by saying it was probably because of pot, what a tool.
It's not funny to poke fun at something probably more than half of the civilised world does everyday now, indeed grow up.

In fact, many more people use drugs in under-developed uneducated & third world countries, unless you live in Ojai or the 80's...grow up...there is a reason it's called Dope...well, actually, we'd like you to not grow up, who would be left to make fun of if you did...viva stoners!

I agree, the mention of pot seems completely irrelevant to this story.

he's a coke-head, why is pot mentioned? i guess it's just a chance to take a crack (no pun intended) at Massachusetts and new pot policy.
