There's a guy at my college whom I know and like really well. We have a lot in common (read the same kind of books, etc) and can have long conversations. Problem, though: he deals in chemicals of the illicit kind. And not just on the side -- he does it for a living. I don't have any moral problems with drugs, though I don't use them myself and none of my friends do -- not even the drug dealer, he just sells them. It's just that I'm afraid I will have a taint by association problem. In fact, I sort of already have -- the campus housing people searched my room for drugs once, simply because he had been in it. (They found nothing of course, since I use nothing. He thought it was very amusing, but I was annoyed.) Is it worth it to stay friends with the dude, since I like him so much, or should I cool off?

If you don't have any moral objections to what your friend is doing (that is makeing money from illegaly selling substances that are potentialy dangerous and lethal) then there's no reason why you shouldn't be friends with him EXCEPT.... you point out your "taint by association" problem, well it could be more serious than that - if this person is court by the police and charged for drug dealing, you may find your self to be considered by the police to be "aiding and abbeting" your friend in the course of his crimanal activatys - which is a serious crime within its self, be very cearful indeed.
Chandler.
