Drug dealers in the club.

shadowcat
Atlanta suburb
Once again a drug dealer spoiled a visit to my favorite club. He came in and took the table next to mine. He instantly became the most popular person in the club. For the next 2 hours it was noting but a parade of dancers and waitresses coming around to buy pot or at least get some free hits. Groups of 5 or 6 of them at a time. Just standing around, blocking my view and hiding me from dancers looking for customers.

He doesn't buy any thing. The waitresses bring him free drinks and he doesn't buy any dances. He had a large plastic bag full of it and was rolling and smoking like he didn't have a care in the world. And why should he? The manager and bouncers don't seem to give a shit. I guess happy dancers make for happy customers. So why rock the boat? Of course he doesn't sell to any customers.

Not much I can do about it. I know that drug selling and use will get a club shut down faster than prostitution. No point in me complaining to the manager or bouncers. I'll just piss off the dancers, etc. No point in trying to move. I had one of the best seats in the house and there were no other seats available.

So I got up and left with a lot money left in my wallet and determined to start looking for a new club.

Serious on finding a new club SC? If there is anyone on here that I identify with a specific club, that would be you.

I would complain anonymously or even threaten to contact the cops, again anonymously.

Pauldrake how would that work? On the phone or something? Not a good idea imo. They would probably call his bluff.

The first step is admitting to yourself that your favorite club has a problem. Once the blinders are off, everything else works itself out.

The bouncers are getting free smoke as well. Some dealers do get thrown out, I’ve seen it, it’s usually those who are friends with security.

Dealers get thrown out by their friends?

I was a young man during the late 80s-early 90s, There was always a well known coke dealer in the clubs I frequented, we were not friends. I have no idea how he did not get busted back then he was so open about it. Both clubs had organized crime connections and ran in to L.E. trouble after Whitey Bulger slipped out of town.. I am L.E now and do not sweat drug dealers but steer clear of Angels.

Ok, I’m naive. What is an Angel in the context you mentioned, Chaindog?

@chessmaster - If I was going to contact the club anonymously with a complaint/threat about kicking the drug dealer out I would probably first do it over email. It would be important to have a detailed description of the dealer including date/time/appearance and any other details. The point is to give them a written record of the complaint such that could be used against them later if they don't clean things up. Any halfway smart manager can read between the lines there. If that doesn't work then complain on social media publicly with a burner social media account (again make sure to post a detailed description of the dealer). Oh and tag the police on the post.

I assume the club/staff gets paid by the dealers to let them set up shop

The seedyness of Follies started wearing on me on my last few visits - it's bad enough the club is small and usually packed shoulder to shoulder, but makes it worst when you have that kinda element (drug dealers) that do nothing but make a strip club visit worst for those that are there for SCing.

There's probably drugs/drug-use in every club, but I don't think I've noticed it as blatantly as at Follies and surprised it's allowed to happen given that the mileage there already is beyond what it should be/legal.

@ shadow

if I were you I'd avoid that corner even though it may be the best seat in the house

If it’s as blatant as it sounds, I’d avoid the club just because I don’t want to get involved in either a drive by or a raid.

Disagree: https://www.biblegateway.com/passage/?se…
If any of you has a dispute with another, do you dare to take it before the ungodly for judgment instead of before the Lord’s people? 2 Or do you not know that the Lord’s people will judge the world? And if you are to judge the world, are you not competent to judge trivial cases? 3 Do you not know that we will judge angels? How much more the things of this life! 4 Therefore, if you have disputes about such matters, do you ask for a ruling from those whose way of life is scorned in the church? 5 I say this to shame you. Is it possible that there is nobody among you wise enough to judge a dispute between believers? 6 But instead, one brother takes another to court—and this in front of unbelievers!

7 The very fact that you have lawsuits among you means you have been completely defeated already. Why not rather be wronged? Why not rather be cheated? 8 Instead, you yourselves cheat and do wrong, and you do this to your brothers and sisters. 9 Or do you not know that wrongdoers will not inherit the kingdom of God? Do not be deceived: Neither the sexually immoral nor idolaters nor adulterers nor men who have sex with men[a] 10 nor thieves nor the greedy nor drunkards nor slanderers nor swindlers will inherit the kingdom of God. 11 And that is what some of you were. But you were washed, you were sanctified, you were justified in the name of the Lord Jesus Christ and by the Spirit of our God.

Two posts in the same thread by the same person

"Smoke the motherfucker and put a cap in his ass. "

"I’d avoid the club just because I don’t want to get involved in either a drive by or a raid."

Spoke to someone in the local PD. I told him the drug dealing was really hampering people's ability to execute on the prostitution front.

He said to smoke the motherfucker and put a cap in his ass.

Did he then recommend that you avoid the club at the same time?

Yes the dealers that are cool with security or management provide free smoke. Those that don’t offer up or grease palms where needed get thrown out.

1. I have seen the bouncers chatting with the dealers as friends!

2. Have gotten dances from the girls, and afterwards seen them run over to the dealers. Thus my money to girl to dealers!. Then the bitches complain when they don't have rent money.

3. Drugs will be the downfall of the club. Remember the raid a couple years ago when they were only looking for one dealer? Never found him. Wonder who tipped him off?

4. ...........Good luck on finding new club, as mileage sucks in most of the other clubs.

The only other option in Atlanta with mileage anywhere close is probably Tattletale, but at twice the price.

Good thing LE never reads this site nor enforces the law. That would be scary if a strip club instead of a web site got shut down.

Sucks even if you move sometimes there are multiple dealers there. And they have chased out most of the girls I like. I haven’t even seen Cassie or some of the griffin girls the last two times. They must be going somewhere

it's unfortunate, but the dealers keep the dancers in the club. kicking them out (like was done a few years ago) only succeeded in discouraging dancers from working there.

It sounds like drug dealers are starting to run the club.

My impression is that it is drugs, not sex, that triggers most SC raids. Once dealers start using the club, major LE action is inevitable.

Well, you could try this. But I'm skeptical that it would make a difference...

Send them an email via an anonymous one-time-use email service (there are several that are free). Describe the activity and the drug dealers, but leave out anything that might identify you as the sender. State that they need to do something to limit the drug dealers (elimination is asking too much), because it is ruining the club experience for customers.

Conclude by saying that if they don't do something, then you'll stop going. And, additionally, you'll forward what you've witnessed to both the local media as well as the police. They'll probably be more afraid of an undercover reporter than a cop.

Give them a week to sort it out.

I have *zero* idea if this would do anything. Possibly not. But it can't hurt (unless they figure out that it's you). Be careful and that won't happen.
