There are like a thousand of those shops here in LA now, and the city is getting together to do something about the number, but I don't know how they can decide who is and who isn't legitimate, other than by accepting bribes, so I don't think I'm for city regulation of it either.
I wonder if the aggressiveness you are seeing is because the street dealers are getting frozen out which can only be a good thing in the future.....maybe? As you can see, I'm not convinced, but I know prohibition doesn't work so I'm willing to see new ideas tried.
