    Wait so candy and colorful hydration products are only for kids? I’m pretty sure kids aren’t shopping at a smoke shop. Now kids may be more likely to mistake them but I see no evidence that they are marketing to kids. Hell kids don’t have an id or money to purchase the items.

    With all the problems going on in NY this is what you’re concerned about?



  6. hopeless on November 17, 2023 at 1:20 am

    you know if the state is the only ones making the money then why would the ones who was selling it illegal benifit in any way that kinda defeats the purpose it was more to not be comittibf crime anymore but you make it so far out of reach to the ones that was selling it now it just makes more sence to let the rich set up the grow and just take it over with them tied up in the basement lol



  7. prank King tv on November 17, 2023 at 1:21 am

    It’s not to attract kids…..it’s a nostalgia thing you idiots. And why the fuck would a child go into a smoke shop to buy candy anyway



  11. RIE on November 17, 2023 at 1:25 am

  12. Boombap on November 17, 2023 at 1:25 am

    With 3 dispensaries in all of New York City and 0 in Westchester county what do you expect? Stop wasting my tax money on nonsense



  13. Salman esa on November 17, 2023 at 1:28 am

    All these problems happened after NYC allowing people to sell and smoke marijuana and smoke shop became problem a lot persons sell these products in street police doesn’t care its became legally now more crime and city became worse



  14. AG Aquatics on November 17, 2023 at 1:29 am

    These pigs only do there jobs when tax dollars are in danger



  15. Anonymous on November 17, 2023 at 1:29 am

    Penalize those drug dealers!!



  16. AA on November 17, 2023 at 1:30 am

    The reason that place got busted was simply because of the labels that cater to kids. Otherwise if they don’t sell to kids or have stupid labels then they won’t get busted just for selling weed to adults.



  17. prank King tv on November 17, 2023 at 1:31 am

    They are helping they self



  18. Jaboy Photography on November 17, 2023 at 1:32 am

    I am more worried about the lady that got shit smeared in her face and the guy was back out free and on the train the next day….. NYC always losing its focus



  19. Adrian Trooper on November 17, 2023 at 1:35 am

  20. Any B on November 17, 2023 at 1:35 am

  21. TakoFire on November 17, 2023 at 1:37 am

  22. JP on November 17, 2023 at 1:39 am

    Political theater , why don’t you ladies stand outside a cvs or Duane reads in the Bronx and try stopping crime there so people can actually buy stuff there again 😅



  23. prank King tv on November 17, 2023 at 1:39 am

  24. sixthrealm on November 17, 2023 at 1:40 am

  26. Pharoah1 on November 17, 2023 at 1:42 am

  28. Mark Serrano on November 17, 2023 at 1:43 am

    Successful people don’t become that way overnight. Most people you see as glance wealth, a great career, purpose is the result of
    hard work and hustle over time. I pray anyone
    who reads this will be successful in life



  29. Dina Todorova on November 17, 2023 at 1:46 am

    Nyc legalize cannabis and Marijuana, then mentally sick numbers increase, then we have to spend more money to treat them and find them a place to live! It’s a devil circle orchestrated by local administration…it’s crazy



  30. Anonymous on November 17, 2023 at 1:47 am

    Shouldn’t female cops have at least 1 big male partner?



  31. Ry Guy on November 17, 2023 at 1:50 am

    Just make it federally legal already holy shit its 2023. Seriously its a almost 20 fucking 25 and we still doing this bullshit and going crazy over a plant? Put those cops into the subways or communities that ACTUALLY NEED THEM. The govt is just butthurt they’re not getting any money from sales/taxes off these places. These people arent criminals there just trying to earn a living the way they know how. Put our tax money into something that makes fucking sense and more productive. There will ALWAYS be a black market for it no matter how many you "bust"(bust one & another pops right up), and bc of this there is no good reason for all this bs. It’s just our Greedy Vulcher’s in the gov’t wanting every last cent they feel entitled to.



  32. stephen cartledge on November 17, 2023 at 1:51 am
