I ain't reaching.
Y'all just don't know what y'all talking about
Put it like this:
You're right..........and you're wrong.
What you said was true about Brother Mouzone, but only in the sense that.........if he wasn't doing business with Avon.........nobody in New York was going to do business with Avon either.
You're wrong because Brother wasn't directly connected to the drug trade other than as protection/security.
The people directly involved in the NY drug trade (in terms of supplying the product) were just waiting to hear back from Brother about how Avon was going to handle the Stringer situation.
Basically, when Brother went to see Avon in the Barber Shop, he was just acting as a messenger/intermediary between Avon and the "powers-that-be" in New York.
Meaning, it was never going to be Brother's decision about whether or not New York chose to deal with Avon.
His role was solely to relay the message back to New York about what Avon decided to do with Stringer.
So, again, you're right in the sense that Brother's situation with Avon would determine whether or not New York would do business with Avon in the future.......but wrong in your belief that Brother himself had the power to make that call.
