Could a cop do this?
It seems most of the weed in this state has evaporated.
I have found someone who claims to have some, located about 25 miles from me. He is willing to drive to my town to meet somewhere and sell to me, but I'm a little uncomfortable buying from a stranger. If it was a cop...would it be legal for them to drive to the next town to do business? Would they be out of their jurisdiction?

No.
Gone are the days that literally bandits could literally escape by fleeing into another state. Law enforcement now cooperates and closed those jurisdiction loopholes.
However, I wouldn't worry about this stranger being a cop.Happiness only real when shared

I know you can't hide from the cops on the grounds of jurisdiction...but once you go into another town, they would have to call a cop from that town to arrest anyone, right?
The reason I'm uncomfortable is because this guy posted an ad on craigslist looking for customers, but I don't think the cops would bother coming to another town just to give me a ticket for half an oz...

There has only been 1 bust on a craigslist. A dealer posted his phone number and advertised meth, coke, and weed. Undercover cops purchased from him 3 times before they made an arrest. I think the only reason the cops got involved is because someone complained or someone snitched on him.
Most of the dealing goes on in "men seeking men". The police are not going to do reverse stings to target homosexual weed smokers. Not only is it politically unpopular but law enforcement is much more concerned with fighting online rx diversion (online pharmacies). Selling on craigslist is risky though.
Read this article (it's about selling weed on criagslist): http://www.arbiteronline.com/media/s...iteronline.com
I'd be more concered about getting ripped off. If someone is going to drive 25 miles to deliver you are either buying a lot or he is planning on ripping you off, or maybe, just maybe he is being really nice.
Where are you at if you don't mind my asking?

How do you know this? A few weeks ago I saw a teaser on the local news about somebody getting arrested for drugs from the local craigslist, but I forgot to stick around for the whole story. (I was stoned

I think the reason he agreed to come meet me is because he wants me to be a return customer. I'm on the west coast...that's all I'll say.

Yes, it’s entrapment if someone says “Do you want to buy marijuana from me for $20?” but then again most hookers don’t just walk up to you and ask you if you want to fuck them for $20. You can still advertise without asking.
Why is he not making you come to him? Is this a dealer or just some dude hooking you up?

entrapment is extremely specific. all it means is that law enforcement can not "creat the opportunity" for u to commit a crime. this definately qualifies i would think.
i'd try to meet him in a semi-public place and never give him a way to ID u. (dont drive ur own car, or if u do, park far away, etc) if shit goes bad, run like hell.
