Money and policitcal games same when the PTP turned on cannabis because it made someone popular. Cant have policies that are popular from other parties. Add to that the high chance that brewers have bought people off and then we get this.

Some people respond bad to cannabis. A friend of mine gets really fearful when taking it. My experience is that cannabis usually enhances feelings. I would not recommend it if you have problems like this. That is just my opinion other people might think otherwise. I usually respond good to it as im usually happy, but in times of stress if noticed it making things worse. But just try and like so many said take less and you have less THC.

I also never got it offered but i know where to get it if i wanted. In general drugs are not pushed on the street that much but you need to look for it. It wont be pushed in your face. Same like cannabis before i knew where to get it but was never offered. Far to risky for them to openly offer it.

Yes far more is not caught, but if it was that bad that everyone was an addict and responded badly to it it would be more in the news. As with all drugs the majority of people taking it are not crazed druggies. Not saying that this stuff is good for your health. But if people became so violent on it then given the amounts we would see far more problems then what we are currently seeing. This stuff is definitely bad but it cant be as bad as people think given the quantities used and how often it is in the news.

There is a difference between greed and trying to scrape by a living. Greed is totally different and you have no proof the guy had other means of surviing. Not all people have enough money to survive. I would say greedy if he had good income and then went for even more. IMHO this guy was just trying to survive and made stupid decision. That is as far as I go. And yes wildlife reserves are for wildlife, when you go there its at your own risk and the elephants did not do anything wrong. But to attach greed without knowing the guys personal circumstances is just insulting.

Where I am from you can default on loans and so on you go into debt structuring and live at a minimum for 3 years or so. However all income and money counts. So your money would count too and your wife would not be able to enter because you are her husband and have money. I can imagine similar rules in Thailand else its too easy to skip debts.

That would be a good option but that still means she has to work and sees little of her money back. Its seems he wants to prevent this option as it means she is basically not getting much money. This is an option I would go for it will take a while but what else is there.

Why dont you pay her bills for a year while she fully uses her salary to pay the debt off. I mean if its 90% of her salary then by cutting costs and you paying for living (not too expensive and it can be done over time). You could also go for a longer period. But with you helping the debt could go away.

I now understand why your nobodysfriend. I agree its preventable and the elephants are not to blame. But to call someone greedy without knowing their situation is a bit over the top. Usually people like this are dirt poor and do this to make some extra money. Its a bad decision on his part but to call him greedy is over the top.

Strange that people are moaning about this. In many civilized countries you can't keep money that is deposited in your account wrongly. In this case though its IMHO more about money mules. I find Thaivisa posters strange people bleating and moaning when they loose a small payment on Lazada to a scammer while here defending people who spend money that is not theirs. You can't have it both ways. Laws like this are usually meant to make sure money mules (if you don't know what those are educate yourself) liable so fraud is combatted. If you want to be protected from fraud then you must also protect people who send money wrong and to have punishment against money mules. People seem to hate banks and seem to think banks should always pay out. Strange. I hate scammers and people who keep wrongly deposited money are scammers too.

Your right i misread, still i stand with my opinion that carrying weapons is a stupid thing. Now this guy will go to jail for murder. Weapons escalate things, not deescalate. But your 100% right i misread.

That is why people who carry weapons on them are IMHO at more danger. When tempers flare weapons get used. Best not to go packing as weapons can also be turned on yourself. Weapons make people do things they normally would not like standing up and fighting when running is smarter. Sure in some rare cases weapons are useful. When your with your back to a wall and have no other choice. But in general your legs are your best weapon (running away)
