I started going into NYC in 1979 from LI, the cost to ride the LIRR was 50cent at my age & off peak I fell in love with the city I remember getting off the train like it was yesterday in Penn station.
@@outlawboxing1923 1981 Death rate was mostly Overdoses. I'm talking 1992 and up was fun for me growning up. I spent a lot of summers down south. 95 and up was all NY for me

New York: "Nowhere does Heroin flow into the country than from this city." Baltimore: "Hold my beer." Seattle: "Hold my beer." New Orleans: "Hold my beer."
Because the government dont care. But make it look like they do. Let's not forget the CIA have a lot to do with the importation of hard drugs. Heroin and cocaine. The wars on drugs isnt what it seems.
@@joshuaaugustin5005 Not at all. Maybe in 1970. But other cities have had a much longer history with smack than New York. You can't even find good dope in New York anymore. It's all junk.
my thing is heroin always been big in NYC...I don't understand why this was a big news story in 81' when its been around since probably the early 1900's especially in the 40's, 50's and 60's. And even more so now with pill and lean abuse.
DJ Apocalyptic. Well you are very right. But then again Heroin was in the USA long before the 90'S. As a matter of fact there was a big problem back in the early to late 50'S in Washington D.C. when I was a young Teenager growing up D.C.
NYC was the mecca for dope, Nicky Barnes flood Harlem with smack back than as well as other black king pins, they had a strangle hold on that place zombies everywhere stoned out of their mind.
When you really think about it the entire drug enforcement agency is a complete waste, people are never going to stop doing drugs, some drugs are even laced with fentanyl now and even that’s not a deterrent, if jail and or death can’t stop a user from using than what can?
This was the downfall of LCN. The drugs brought the heat, by 86 all the bosses were in prison, not for heroin but for Windows. People who make money off others suffering are the lowest.
The French Connection (Marseille) was broken up by the mid 70's. A new heroin ring, which was headed by Sicilian Mafia boss Gaetano Badalamenti and including members of NY's Bonanno crime family, took over in the late 70's to early 80's. That was known as The Pizza Connection. Chinese rings became the dominant supplier in the late 80's.
I used to drive from NC to NYC to get them for 10 a baggie , got busted in the Giuliani times in the lower east side. Got the Latinos inside to give me a real good address up in Lexington Spanish Harlem. Stingray was the real deal . Glad to have stopped on time
@@dacethejackofhearts7209 I know all about 110 Lexington & Washington heights I'm from NY, I lived at the Y on 34st it was called the Sloan house, you couldn't let people up after 12, but a dude show me on 33st which is the back how to open the door & let people in, or throw your key out the window if you wasn't facing the court yard which was the middle, that place was a sardine box literally, I actually got kicked out, & moved to the Y on 66 & Amsterdam I live in all the Y's in NY not a pleasant memory.
I was in Daytop in those days. Best thing I could have done for myself at the time! Originally Daytop was a terrific idea. Then it resembled more of a Cult, by the time I was ready to graduate. I wish I could find some of my friends from Swan Lake and Parksville Facilities..I met my husband there! I always think of my friends there and I always pray that they "made it", like me! The drugs were different then. The scene was always the same! Bloodsucking is all.dealing is. Sucking the blood out of the addict AND his poor family.
At that time from the early 70s to mid 80s the best heroin came out from Sicily Italy it had so many refineries that Italian authorities estimated about 300 in Sicily.if you were a user at that time in the west there was a 80%chance that it came from Sicily.
Heroin is sooooo good hahahaha now that ish from Mexico all mixed w fent, but heroin is way betted. I wonder how much is needed to plug the supply these days. Fentanyl is so strong you only need a pound for the same effect than anywhere from 50 to a hundred pounds of heroin would give.
Problem is Fentanyl doesn't turn into 6-MAM it's only Heroin that does that and it's the 6- Monoacetylmorphine that gives gear it's unique beautiful high, especially the first 10 mins before the 6-MAM goes to Morphine and a few other metabolites. I think it's only Heroin turn's into 6-MAM.
@@stevenewton7787do you care to elaborate i find that very interesting. I have heard others touch on that subject before but my understanding was that heroin was diacetylmorphine
Heroin - another thing you can’t get anymore.

Philly? Paterson? Newark?
Now I wouldn't be surprised if even up there the dope came from Mexico. In NOLA it's 100% from Mexico now due to it not being too far from Huston
I've always wondered why Baltimore was such a heroin hub.
2020....our troops guarding poppy fields in Afghanistan. Guess it’s not that big of a deal.
Why wasn’t this ever considered an opioid crisis.
It was mostly contained to poor parts of town.Now it's very street in every town in every state.

yup, their plan was to get lots of Heroin in NYC so then the virus they created (AIDS) could spread faster and kill people.

Sadly. But that will change. Eventually we will see very pure heroin back on the streets. Fentanyl is for losers all the way around.
When we still had quality dope
😂😂😂😂😂
Right ??
Still get good Brown No3 in the UK, you need to be careful an .2 bag will sometimes OD us people with a high tolerance sometimes.
Also it cost's us £20 for 3 1 point bags, 300mg for £20 its a bargain, most people get 2 and 1 (2 rocks and a bag of gear lol)
