In most modern countries it is banned for undercover police to get people to do something they wouldn't otherwise do. They are not allowed to go up to a person and ask them if they want to buy drugs, because there is a big chance that that person would not have went and bought drugs if it wasn't right in their face.

It's fair and keeps the police in line.
