So the OP is Mark Twain now. Moving up the ladder from dorky kid hanging out with the wrong people to literary genius all in the course of one post on neogaf.

Holy shit dude, let it go.
 
Pssh. Typical. The OP sees a black man bust in and point a gun at him, and immediately assumes the guy's robbing him.

Goddamn racists.
 
This thread's tangent made me remember something.

From my cop pal's Facebook page:

"Actual 911 call over the radio: 'Complainant's window just shot, suspect is a black male. Complainant did not see suspect, but is assuming suspect is a black male.'"

This is the exact reason why I will have a gun ready in my next place.

Then one day the police get enough evidence to execute a warrant on your place, you shit your pants when they kick down the door and think you're getting ripped, reach for your gun, and a SWAT member puts two rounds in your chest.

Good plan.

That, or just don't do illegal shit and keep protection close at all times. Just in case.
 
I dunno. I live and have lived with people who deal pot in small amounts, it sounds to me like something else is going on that you aren't aware of. Small time pot is hardly worth it for a job like that.

Good old Seattle kick doors...

:lol :lol

I wish I could say I feel sorry.. but dealing drugs is a scray game. I have been robbed and well I have done the robbing..

Get away from it and you'll be better off
 
First, what part of Seattle?

Second, I have a similar story, luckily not involving me.
So my best friend and his girlfriend at the time are in desperate need of a place to live. His girlfriend is friends with a girl who deals meth and weed and offers to let them stay there. My friend is really against the idea but after a few weeks of living on random people's couches and non stop begging from his gf, he relents.
Things start going downhill immediately. The dealer and my friend despise each other and my friend has enough common sense to know he is living in a really dangerous situation. He begs his GF to reconsider but she refuses. After just a few weeks, my friend decides to lay down the gauntlet. He is moving out, and his gf can either stay or go with him. But he will be gone by the end of the week.
Two days before he planning on moving out, he is in his bedroom when he hears yelling from the living room. He sneaks out and peaks around the corner to see three men in ski masks and guns pistol whipping the shit out of his GF, the dealer, and one of his friends. They keep screaming "where's the fucking money! you're a dead bitch!"
Turns out she was using the meth instead of selling it and so her supplier sent some thugs to beat her unconscious. They ransack they place, beat her to hell and back, and then leave.

Cops show up, and as they are searching the house, they find tons of drugs in the dealers room, arrest her and threaten her with several years in jail. She snitches, gets out after a week.

So yeah, never hang out at a dealer's house. And any dealer worth a damn never lives or hangs out where he sells.
 
Almost sounds like the Udistrct to me. Maybe near I-5.
 
The worst shit I ever had regarding an old-dealer friend of mine was watching his house being busted by the cops on a BBC1 documentary about drug dealers in Edinburgh which was funny as fuck ("Deh hit ae's pal, it's aw upstair in ma room!".) That's all you really have to worry about in Scottish cities unless you're dealing industrial amounts. None of this big black guys with ski masks and tazers shit. Which - quite frankly - I'm pleased about considering my name is Steve.

Yeah I had a friend who lived in U district, right next to the highway. Everytime I left I thought some methhead was gonna jump out of the bushes, beat me to death and hump my dead corpse.

I was thinking he was in white center or rainer valley, but surely he wouldn't be surprised at this happening if he was.

Naw kick doors happen mostly outside of the hood.. and to hippie dealers or college dealers.

With 2 guys kicking in the door on like 6 people in the Valley or White Center they better be carrying something with long clips.

They knew they were getting easy marks.. No this happened in Seattle/Ballard area..

good point, i can definitely see it in the U district. Filled with enough college boys and hippies and has areas that are just grimey enough without being too dangerous.
 
Crazy people and their racism claims.

Here is my question, if a group of black men got robbed by some white guys, what would they say?

"a bunch of black guys dressed like white guys robbed us"?
:P :D

THAT'S RACIST!

I Really do agree that racial stereotyping is crap.. just crazy the lengths people will go to to believe/prove that something is racial stereotyping vs. just descriptive.
 
SnakeswithLasers said:
No, the dudes that robbed him happened to be black. They also might have happened to wear glasses or brown shoes or levis. But those details weren't included because either a) they weren't remarkable enough (as in, "Well, how is it relevant that the guy was wearing levis? Not all levi wearers are criminals!") or b) they didn't serve to make his story's narrative more interesting (whereas including the detail "black men" was noteworthy as it makes the story either more credible or the perpetrators more menacing).

All I'm saying is that perpetuating this tendency DOES have ill effects--which is why I linked to the story about the black guys who were wrongfully convicted of a crime. Disagree all you want, be as faux-offended as you want, be as dense about it as you want, hell, call the cops--I don't give a fuck.

Okay... now you are reaching.

Chill the fuck out.

:lol

Steve got tased twice and he was the only one that complied with the command to get naked.

:lol

This is why you reinforce the doors when you're dealing! and to go even further, put a webcam hidden to the side of the front door so you can monitor shit. This ain't the 70's, there's a battle going out there, mang, the battle to survive.
 
That sucks, OP. Still, nobody got hurt and you're all OK for now. However, don't be surprised events like this can happen when you hang around with drug dealers. You should choose wisely on who you pick to hang out with. It should be an eye opener since things could have potentially ended up worse than this. Best of luck.

I'm not even going to get in the argument that rose with SnakeswithLasers. Just not even worth it.

so OP didn't call the police ?

"Hello 911, we were just robbed in our house by some black guys with handguns and tasers. What did they steal? Er..." <click>

They probably did it for the lulz. I bet they tasered Steve in the ass.

Just out of curiosity, what general part of Seattle was this in?

U-District

Did your friend ever get any idea who might of rolled on him? regular customers that maybe brought a shady character by in the last 2-3 weeks? spurned chic who might hang out with these guys and run her mouth a little too much?

The situation is being dealt with...

liquidatedbrains said:
Damn, if that happened to me id be bolting out after them with a firearm as soon as they left. Gangsta types arent the hardest to hear from a block away. Yes it might mean death or injury, but unless the situation is dealt with, it will only bring fear in the future.

Try being tough guy when you're drunk and high and you've got a shiny new 9mm pointed at you. Scenarios were running through my head as I lay on the floor, but nothing that sounded like a good idea presented itself.

Oh, that sounds special. I'll alert Seattle PD to start searching for some bodies. :P

Well, hey, you may be retarded, but you're clearly not completely brain dead.
 
Gio_CoD said:
Aaaaaand this is precisely why I don't hang out with people that deal drugs.

Pretty. Fucking. Much.

I had to completely cease hanging out with most of my friends about 7 years ago, becauase this is the kind of shit that started happening pretty regularly. Last I heard, one of those fools is on probation for one of the dumbest things I've ever heard, two of them haev kids they can't afford, and another one has plain out disappeared. I don't regret cutting ties. Fuck, I don't even want to think what would have happened if I had gotten caught up in that madness.
 
Ah U district it was, good call blackace

If you didn't pick up on it from the conversation I had with blackace, if his buddies live in the U district, they aren't thugs and badasses, they weren't going to chase these guys down or get even. Three kind of people live in the U district, tweakers and methheads that got tired of downtown, college kids, and poor hippies that couldn't afford to live in nicer areas like greenlake, upper queen anne, capital hill, or bellevue.

Like I said I left the game, the game never left me.

Also, there are enough black people down there there seeing them wouldn't get the cops called on them right away.

And if his friend is the hippy type he most likely chraged the crap out of his "hood" clients, and they got word. That is how a lot of kick doors get started.. at least back in my day.

I never knew Seattle was so violent. Frasier has lied to me!

I hope my comic can get published.. while it is a comic there is a lot of real life in it..
 
This is why you don't hang out with drug dealers. You're actually lucky. If it was SWAT with a search warrant you'd be looking at 1-5 on a conspiracy to distribute plus calling your moms from the county jail asking for $2,500 to post bail while bubba just found a new fish.

yeah, shit like that sucks no matter how many times you hear it. and then you get older and it happens and you think, "am i really going to fight this guy in the Wal-Mart parking lot?". i'm just tired of punching ignorant people in the face and risking jail time so these days i try to ignore it but....we all have a threshold, ya know?

What is infuriating is when it comes from all sides. My wife is white, I'm black, so we have the pleasure of 1) me being called a n*gger on more than one occasion, 2) black folks having all sorts of snide ass remarks, 3) our very existence in stores frowned upon just because we're together. I absolutely love it!
 
GDJustin said:
I'm through with you and this topic. You are beyond ridiculous and I don't think I've ever seen someone be more racism-paranoid.

This

Plus the story sounds like the raid in Lock Stock
 
I don't live in Seattle anymore, since I was moving away the next day. I don't really know what is going on, except that the guy who is my friend's dealer found the ringleader. Retribution is on its way, however, they said it may be a long time coming.

Oh, don't worry, the walls are closing in on Silky sm00th.

Oh, and I can see what I can do about Commodore_Perry too....

riding your horse over the boarder?
 
TheAzRim said:
Was just waiting on someone to point out that he mentioned black men. Well if black men rob me, I will say that black men robbed me, not because they are black men just because THEY happened to be black men.

Describing assailants is racist.

what a concept.

How many elevators did it take to get on top of that horse?
