I can't really generalize. I've known a lot of shitty dealers, but I've also known a few very good people who were also dealers. Example: One lady I used to know had 7 or 8 kids, and her abusive ex husband went to prison for murder and left her and her children with nothing in a horrible neighborhood. Since crack cocaine was a very in demand product in her area, she started dealing. No one was allowed to come to her house, or be anywhere near her children. No one was allowed to contact her past 10 PM. Anyone wanting to buy from her had to show ID and be at least over the age of 18. She questioned every person, and wouldn't sell to any girl she even thought could be pregnant. She sold crack for a few years until she had enough money to buy a home elsewhere and get her family out of the area, and then she quit. I can't look down on her. Though I don't agree with having anything to do with illegal substances while you have children, as I view the possibility of jail time as an unnecessary threat to your family, I can respect the way she went about it. She wasn't greedy or immoral. She never fucked anyone over. She took precautions to keep her family safe. 
Well said. I respect you very much for viewing this situation with such a mature perspective. Although I don't know this woman, I support her and your opinion 100%. It was definitely an unfavorable situation for her, but she (as safely as possible) used it as a temporary stepping stone to lead her to a better life for her and her children. Definitely not something to recommend to anyone, but the past is over with and she did it and it would be very hard for me to look down on her.

Depends on what drug they're dealing. If it's weed, it's perfectly harmless. I'm not going to get into details, but I know many, many people who are very good people who have sold marijuana. Spoken from personal experience, it's not always as bad as it sounds. 
Yeah, most of my weed dealers are generally cool dudes. SWIM sells marijuana, coke, and whatever else she has at the time although she is not mean to her customers. The only regulation is that they have to stay with her in order as to not arouse suspicion.
Watch what you say about drug dealers because if you have only bad things to say, you are being incredibly, incredibly, horrendously ignorant. Meet me first and then I'll allow you to judge.
