They'll lock these trucks up, but won't do the same to violent criminals.

[Shadowdreamcast]

There’s people being stabbed, ran over, robbed....and this is NYPDs biggest concern...they get more and more pathetic by the day

[wlfpac]

This is really what New York PD needs to crack down on. Don't worry about crime, fentanyl, Mayors and governors killing our Etc etc

[johnathandoe]

Guess someone didn't get they cut.

[jimmybundle]

These people are doing a service to the public and especially medical patients. The prices dispensaries charge are disgraceful here in New Jersey

[zg]

next thing you know they will be weeding out the crack trucks too.

[emanuel]

So much crime in the city and they worried about marijuana sellers are you serious.

[SpideyCents]

ridiculous, waste resources on this so actual bad guys can do their thing

[thedisgruntleddyslexic]

It cost like $2 million dollars to get a permit to sell marijuana and they're limited permits that's mostly bought up by big business. 🤣🤣🤣 where's my man says we tried educating them. You know they told them the price of the permit and "everyone was like f*** that s*** I've been selling weed for years with no permit and I'll keep on doing it."

[hellybellybelly]

Yes this is New York's biggest problem...

[jaywhips]

Crazy, those things have been around for years I used to walk passed those all the time in battery park in like 2015.

[kennethlaurent]

NYPD need to be cracking down on A-LOT of other things besides these corny weed trucks. Congrats NYPD, as per usual y’all a bunch of bozos wasting time and efforts on the wrong thing.

[spiralofdivinity]

I’m glad there’s no real crime going on there.

[npa]

So they do nothing about the smack and heroin on the streets, But only choose to target weed? Shame on you.

[TheDaexiled]

Leave them alone I say, they are helping citizens stay happily medicated such as myself

[scottarivett]

Meanwhile an elderly person is being beaten to a pulp for trying to get on a bus in the Bronx

[supportmytroups]

I don’t smoke or care about weed at all but apparently most of the US is obsessed with weed

[djibsonlat]

a lot of people that were working with the weed world trucks lost their Job right now. it looks like the city doesn't care about that.

[joepoe]

I am against weed trucks but with that said the real reason is because the city is not getting their fair share of the revenues. It’s always about the money.

[BishopREALestate]

The big man just wants to make all the money and let all the small people suffer
