J-a-i-l.

I hope this is a hypothetical question because people who sell drugs are the lowest form of s**t on this planet. Effectively drug dealers are mass murderers. So I would try to appeal to your conscience and convince you that you wouldn't want to be responsible for the deaths of so many other people.

Well, if you were a male, I would ask you if your enjoyed rough anal sex without lubricant because that is what you will get in prison. Additional and Final Thoughts 1) You said "drugs" you did not say Marijuana although that is an illegal drug. 2) You are already involved in this activity so it is not "hypothetical", it is real. 3) You are here to rally support for your troubled and guilty conscience and you aren't going to get any sympathy or support from me. 4) There are plenty of ways to support yourself and your education that are not illegal and lead to the downfall of others. 5) Think of how expensive a lawyer can be when you get arrested and have a record because you have graduated to selling more than pot. 6) As I said, I hope you don't mind taking up the ass from a big angry cell mate.

I would tell you that it's not a good idea do sell drugs seeing how you can get shot or die doing so. If your only a teen you dont really need money stay to school and get good grades. Get involved in sports or something to keep you company. If you need a little money get a job that you only work 2 to 3 days a week and your set. Get out of selling drugs before it is to late and your dead nothing speaks greater then that. lETS SEE MONEY OR LIFE.

It' your life. If you want to start off your early adulthood in the slammer that's your business. Besides, you are a teen, WHY is that the only way you can make enough money. Do you have a mortgage to pay? You can do what 90% of other teens do and work in a fast food restaurant, or grocery store, or pet sitting ( I know someone who made $30K last year just from walking dogs) There are MANY things you can do. There is not one restaurant in my town center that doesn't have a "help wanted" sign - and they are all jobs that tend to hire teens. If you insist on continuing to break the law by selling drugs and possibly harming others, when you have so many other alternatives, than I'm afraid to say you deserve to spend time behind bars.

I would tell you that you are deluded if you think this is the ONLY way you can make money....either that, or it's just that you want lots...well, your choice sweetheart...I just hope that when the great day comes, you can explain to all the families of those you killed that you were justified in what you did...after all...their loved ones didn't count as much as your pleasures did....they won't buy it and neither will God.

I know a "family" that makes most of their living this way.. During the past 2 years, 1 son, 3 cousins and 1 son in law,were all shot, the most recent was 2 weeks ago, ages from 13 to 22 years old.. AT the funeral home for one of the cousins a few months back, their grandmother was speaking to me about their activities. >STERN, UNFORGIVING VOICE, SHE SAYS " I KEEP TELLEN THESE KIDS.. YOU LIVE BY THE SWORD....YOU DIE BY THE SWORD.." THEY GOT WHAT THEY GOT BECAUSE OF WHAT THEY ARE DOING"".. grandma might be old , but she knows whats going on ..and SHE'S still ALIVE>

From personal experiance: Through school I saw many people taken down around me who were selling 'hard' drugs (perscription, coke, extasy, etc) by not only local law enforcement, but the feds in some cases. This was enough to get me slightly nervous for my own well being (jail time, fines, etc). When it came to more 'organic' substances (marijuana, mushrooms, opium, etc), law enforcement seemed less concerned with and more concerned with the amount of alcohol being distributed to minors and the 'harder' drugs. That being said, there is always "that guy" that is looking to bust on the guy trying to make a buck selling grass. And he is pretty crafty and will make your life miserable. I remember making a decision to get out while I was ahead and got a job on campus as a short order chef. Once I graduated with a degree, I had no problem getting a job that could pay the bills and live a comfortable lifestyle. I hope this may bring in some perspective for you folks. As for my advice, stay low while you are still in. Seek a way out (of the selling aspect atleast) and a way to get by until you can finish school. Once you have that diploma, the world is your oyster.

You'll make too much money for your own good.

What do you need money for? You're a teenager - haven't you got someone putting a roof over your head, food in your stomach, and clothes on your back? Please tell me this isn't so you can get cool sneakers or an ipod or some other nonsense. Kid, those are non-essentials. If you're willing to risk your future on a pair of shoes, you're a moron and you deserve what you get. If you wait a few years, you can get a real job and have plenty more money without having to hustle and risk injury and jail. If you get busted selling, you may not be able to get a legit job down the road, and you'll be in this same boat for the rest of your life. Don't be stupid.

please dont sell drugs my friends! drug selling is a major cause of aids if u sell drugs u will get aids

Nothing. You know it's dangerous and stupid or you wouldn't be asking this question here. It's not the only way you can make money, it's the only way you can make money without working for it! It's your life, throw it down the toilet if you want to.

One word: J.A.I.L.

I have some friends that I grew up with, they are brothers, one is doing life in federal prison (so is his dad)the other is doing 99 years in a texas prison,all for selling,conspiracy,transporting and other drug related crimes.Now if you can tell why it would be worth life or close to life in prison then you should keep selling drugs.

I would say this question is totally fake and your asking it for attention...

my dream dog....

I would not say anything to convince you to not sell drugs. However, I would love to arrange a nice day tour of the women's correctional facility. It ain't no day at the beach, that's for sure. It's what awaits you when you get caught - and you WILL get caught.

every drug dealer ive ever known has eaten shit....theyre either in jail, turned into addicts and look like theyre dead...i dont know anyone who's been shot over a drug dispute but i know 3 that have gotten in horrible car accidents. one is paralyzed, one's best friend died in the crash, and the other in still in the hospital. drug dealers just have bad fuckin luck, and bad karma. if you dont get caught and sent to jail, something bad WILL happen to you just a matter of time

The only thing worse than the poor American social condition that put you in this system is their deplorable prison system.

keep selling drugs are good.

I wouldn't it's your life... I would suggest that you stay away from the heavy shit and don't use, but other than that, i've got nothing... Why do you want convincing, if you have no other option, wouldn't people telling you all the bad things about what you are doing going to make you feel worse?

Well.. I'm 24, i sell drugs (prescriptions are my specialty) and its because I lost a good job, i have a 3 week old daughter, a wife (who doesn't make shit) and a house- if I don't sell, i loose it all. its not about an 'ipod or sneakers' its about paying bills, and buying formula... shit i rarely even eat myself just so my frickin daughter can eat.. I regret every pill i've ever sold, i regret every pill i've ever ate, and if I could give it all back I would- If I had a mommy and daddy that paid for that shit for me, shit... or if I just had a good job again- Shit. The best jobs around me (in indianapolis) only pay like frickin 8.50-10.oo bux an hour without a great college diploma... shit on half of my resumes i lied and said i had an associates... i went to college to become a pro pilot (big mistake) because flying is too fukin expensive thanks to president bush's gas prices. gotta have a ton of flying hours in to get any jobs as a pro pilot to begin with. Life Sucks, Pills suck, Jobs Suck, thats the world we live in. As for your question- kid if ur still a teen, goto college for engineering or become a pharmacist or somethin... do the damn thing while your ahead or you'll end up as a piece of shit such as myself- constantly trying to fix ways to make temporary fixes for a long term problem.

It's not the only way for you to make money and I'm guessing you know that, since you're asking us how to convince you to stop.

Ask your parents for money.

Get a job dude. Selling drugs.. you only gonna end up dead or in prison before you get to 20s.

been there done that i became addicted and at 17 ive already been in rehab 3 times get a job, a real one. becuase youre just setting your up for failure by dealing.

Selling drugs is great, until you get robbed, beat up, and arrested. Then it kinda sucks.

I think you know the answer it's dangerous and it's killing young kids who are experimenting with the stuff ask yourself would you want your child using drugs?

I'd just shoot you somewhere you wouldn't die from and take the money you made, I'm sure that would make you stop selling drugs.

Do you like getting porked in the butt? Thats what happens in prison or Juvy. Personal use probably won't land you there but dealing sure will

You are a murder and a taker of life. Here is a convincer CLANG CLAN CLANG1 Jail cell doors closing behind you. Oh look in the corner there is your cellie he is a big ole boy who loves boy booty. Bend over and take it like a man or fight till you get the hell beat out of you then take like a man. Don't scream bite the pillow. Now do you wish to continue to sell drugs. If so then get some KY for it is your decision. Booty Call Mr Bill decisoion.

Before the rest of you take this any more out of proportion and start making assumptions, and also for future users who wish to give an answer... this is a completely hypothetical situation based on my experiences from working with organizations that promote DRUG CONTROL! I just thought it would make for an interesting debate/discussion on AnswerBag when I first joined... So please don't assume that I am, personally, asking you to convince me to stop selling drugs. Do I look that stupid? Thank you. :)

Do you sell them to your siblings? How young are your victims? How proud are you of what you do? Money seems to be so important to you that you are willing to "sell" harm to others..how proud are you that you have a price..harming others to make a few bucks. :( Your family must be extremely proud of you.."my son the dope dealer"..wonderful! "let me tell you about how much money my kid made the other day selling drugs/dope/crack/smack". You will provide an endless amount of discussion for your proud family. :(

There is probably nothing I can say to convince you not to. you have found an easy way to make a buck without doing any real work and the fact that you are selling drugs shows you have no consideration whatsoever for yourself or others. most drug dealers try and justify what they do with the old stand-by, "Well, they're going to buy it anyway and if they don't get it from me, they'll get it somewhere else". That makes it alright?? Chances are you will keep right on selling until you decide to stop helping people ruin their lives and the lives of those around them. Or someone else will stop you in one of two ways...one of them is jail, you figure out the other one.

Prison. Isn't that enough?

you know... (since I know this is hypothetical) I worked in fast food for a while. I honestly remember thinking during a horrible lunch rush "I'm going through HELL for six bucks an hour. WHY am I not selling drugs?" So... I really have no answer for you, aside from the obvious jailtime thing... but that's only if you get caught.

Move to california and sell weed. State law says its legal and all you have to do is get a 215 card. You can obtain one as easily as saying you have a backache and you would like to be prescribed medical marijuana. This allows you to legally grow and possess marijuana with no penalty. although federal law still prohibits marijuana since there is a conflict of law you wouldn't suffer any charges if you got caught, if anything you'd have to throw everything out and start over somewhere else. sounds good to me! Just stay away from real drugs like heroin and cocaine and never experiment with them either. Marijuana is gods gift to earth and it is NATURAL and the only reason its illegal is because the money cant make money off of it unless its by criminilizing it. Along with that reason comes the bullshit stigma they are advertising to go along with making it a crime. Like all these pot commercials saying that smoking weed is giving up your personal freedom when really marijuana is all about liberation and being free and being an individual and finding out who you are and exploring new creative things!! Marijuana also is the most medically useful drugs with NO harmful side effects! marijuana was made out to be harmful so the government looks good throwing people in jail for it!! people are blind!!! Marijuana is SCIENTIFICALLY proven to be LESS HARMFUL then ASPIRIN!! It is simply not toxic enough to kill you and does not cause any cancer. If anything marijuana is useful to cancer patients by allowing them to have an appetite and curing their nausia from the radiation treatment. it also cures glaucoma, schizophrenia, depression, and various other conditions on top of it being a great pain killer. DO NOT JUDGE THAT WHICH GROWS ON GODS GREEN EARTH. EVERYTHING ON EARTH IS A PART OF OUR WORLD AND CONNECTS TO US IN SOME WAY SHAPE OR FORM NO MATTER WHAT AND IT DOES NOTHING BUT GOOD.

think about how selling drugs will affect you in the long run and not about the short pleasure you are getting right now. yeah you might be making a little money now but that will catch up wiht you it always does ain't nothing worth having your life taken away cause you owe someone money or cause somebody had to have a blunt and couldn't pay for it. don't waste you life u know if you struggling freedom is just around the corner. Thats what i would tell a person if he was in that situation

Remember girls will put out for free drugs. Just a thought.

I wouldn't even try. A teen in that mindframe KNOWS that what this isn't the only way to make money. He doesn't care. He can't be convinced that he shouldn't any more than you can reason with any criminal. They see it as easy money. They don't WANT to work.

Son, this is not the only way to make money, get educated and make money, with honor, respct and good characters.

Have fun in Jail Getting shanked in prison yards and gang banged in the showers. sorry. you said to say something to convince you not to sell drugs it was the most unappealing thing i could think of. plus why not just have your parents sign you up for research studies. i mad $150 after spending a day at a research clinic. and another 48 when i answered a few questions.

Nothing. With all the information concerning the ills of drug participating available, I'd be naive to believe anything I said would make a difference. (((grinning))) I'm reminded of my grandmother, who used to say "A hard head makes a soft be-hind." Go for it.

well I sell E And have been caught for it when I was 17 and they didn't give me jail timethey didn't give me a huge record more like a slap on the wrist and a 2,000 dollar fine which I paid off with selling more E it's the easiest way to make money and the only reason I got caught iscause one of my customers was caught by theirparents and ratted me out so sell drugs man imake 5000 a month just from selling along with my steady high paying job so sell as many pills as you can mate it's always worth it

Sell drugs, thats the point right? The government would't have made drugs illegal if they didn't want them to be profitable so some kid like you will push it on some other kid. Make your money while you can and don't get caught, people have the right to decide to do drugs or not and the consequences to using drugs is not the person who sells them.
