Question

Like dress like thugs and carry fake guns riding around to known crime areas and acting out like drug salespeople in order to record cop reactions to put on YouTube?

Answer 1

Someone needs to get a life.

Answer 2

actually it is illegal to sell fake cocaine and it is pretty much the same punishment as selling real cocaine. a class C Felony

Answer 3

Your question should be: Who will shoot me first the police or the real dealers if I go to a high crime area carrying fake guns and acting like drug salespeople?

Answer 4

So basically it's a prank, to see the cops reaction, right??

Answer 5

WOW. This is the Darwin theory of only the strong shall survive. It will be a race to see who shoots you first, the druggies that you are invading their turf or the cops.

Just so you do know, it is INTENT that counts in court. If I offer you a bag of oregano but say it is pot, then in the eyes of the law, I am selling drugs.

Carrying fake guns in a drug neighborhood is about the dumbest thing anyone can do. The other side is carrying REAL guns.

Best of luck and I hope this is useful to you

Answer 6

the answer to your first  question, is it illegal to buy and sell fake cocaine, one you can not get fake cocaine it must be something like washing powder, so no it is not illegal to buy and sell a form of powder, however if it looks like cocaine then the police will arrest you on suspicion of "possesion of an illegal substance with intent to supply"  which carries life imprisonment. then obviously they will find out it is just washing powder and be very annoyed and then may press charges for "wasting police time" which is very serious!

also if you carry any fireare, whether rea or fake, you can be arrested for it. under the statue of "firearms act" or if it is fake, they will arrest you under "section 9 of the public order act" creating fear, of violence or disorder" and they will not go lightly, only last year a 17 year old boy had a BB gun on the local train station, the fire arm squad arrested him, and arrested him under "section 9 of the public order act" he got a huge fine and was sentence to an 18 month conditional discharge!

So i'd think very carefully, about your actions before you end up getting arrested, and tbh is it really all worth a few videos of police officers reactions. you are being very nieve of the law, and there are laws out there in practice which you wouldn't even know existed! be careful and take my advise, this is not a joke, what you intend to do, is irrational and disorderly. and a Judge will see it the same way

Answer 7

I'm sure they'd find something stupid to cite you for, whether it be something like "Disturbing the Peace" to "Loitering."  Typically, whatever a police officer doesn't like, he'll find a way to stop.

Answer 8

No it is not illegal but in the mean time your game could cost people who need police protection their lives ...how frickin funny is that???
