It's cheaper than powder, so low

income users can afford it.

When you work for an organization,

they'll supply you with

$10 crack cocaine rocks.

Because most of your

customers are addicts,

they'll be impatient to make a

buy right out on the street.

And the good thing about crack

fiends is they'll keep coming back.

Some guys will make anywhere

from $1,000 to $10,000 a day.

Are you the man

with them jumbo 6s?

I'll take about three

or four hundred.

Damn.

It's harder than functioning in

mainstream or corporate America

because the dynamics

of it is different.

In order to take a position in that world,

you can just, "pow." Just shoot.

The chances of getting robbed

are pretty great, you know?

You do as much as you

can to minimize that,

but somebody at some point

is gonna want what you have,

and they're not gonna have

the money to pay for it.

They are gonna try

and take it from you.

with 30 years' experience investigating

the criminal drug world.

If I steal a television set out

of, uh, you know, Best Buy,

it lists for $1,000, I'll sell

it for $200 on the street.

If I go rob the dope dealer,

I get all his cash,

and I get drugs.

And the advantage

of stolen drugs is

when I steal a guy's coke

that's worth $1,000,

I get to sell it for $1,000!

There's no discount for hot dope.

Ever happened to you?

Mmm.

Not me. No, I never had

no problems like that.

'Cause at the end of the day, you f***

me, you gonna know what's happening.

Are you gonna give them your drugs or

are you gonna tell them to f*** off?

And I'm the person

that's gonna say f*** off.

If you don't have a pistol, I don't

know why you even selling dope.

You won't last. 'Cause

somebody gonna try you.

Anyone who is dealing

drugs in this community,

if they do not have a gun on

them, believe me, it's close by.

It's under a stoop, right around a

corner, tucked behind a phone booth,

but it's close by.

They look up in your face,

they look up in your eye,

they see the gun and they

know who's gonna use it,

who ain't gonna use it.

A, assess.

"Don't shoot them, kill them."

Because if you shoot them, you gonna

make them angry enough to come back

and really hurt you.

So, if you're gonna shoot,

shoot to kill.

It was like motherfuckers were shooting

each other every day on the news.

It was like, New York, very much

like a stabbing society, you know.

Something goes wrong, somebody

sticks a knife in your chest.

It was a drug deal gone bad,

I got the worst of it.

Stabbed here, stabbed

here, stabbed here.

Once in the back of the head, once in

the chest, entered the left ventricle,

and this is from

the open heart surgery.
