Popular Post rooster59 Posted February 13, 2021 Popular Post Share Posted February 13, 2021 Pattaya: A reminder weed is still illegal in Thailand - 36 arrested at drugs parties Image: Naewna Huay Yai police led by their chief Pol Col Apichanon Wattanawarangkoon raided two pool villas in Moo 7 where there were drinks and drug parties going on yesterday. At the first house two racing detailed cars were parked outside and inside the music was blaring and there was alcohol and cigarettes in evidence. There was also a ziplock plastic bag containing ketamine, drug taking equipment and a quantity of marijuana. There were 20 people - nine men and eleven women - enjoying themselves at a birthday party. In another house nearby there were 16 attendees - 11 men and five women. Here ganja ingesting equipment was found along with a quantity of ketamine. All suspects were taken away for drug testing and prosecution. Despite the easing of certain regulations in Thailand related to certain parts of the hemp and marijuana plants the comsumption of the drug for recreational use remains illegal. It is now being grown legally in some parts of Thailand for the production of medicines but those using it as a narcotic still face prosecution.

Why on earth make a fuss about some harmless weed when they've found a plastic bag full of ketamine, used to make the potentially deadly k nom pong, or k powdered milk drug, that's killed lots of people in Bangkok.

I even bought a bong yesterday in the open in broad daylight with cannabis leaves painted on it here in Thailand. They removed cannabis from the narcotics list a while ago ???? its legal in America in 10 states now, and Biden will decriminalize it on the Federal level soon.

Popular Post spidermike007 Posted February 13, 2021 Popular Post Share Posted February 13, 2021 I sort of understand cracking down on hard drugs. Sort of. I actually think society would be better served if ALL drugs were legal. But, that is a complicated debate. In terms of any arrest for ganga, it is completely overzealous, and pointless. All possession of pot should be legal. 7 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Even though I don't partake, mainly because I don't smoke anything, I have known many people who do/did see it as less harmless than alcohol - which I do like! I actually do like the smell though, which I hate with regular tobacco, and on one occasion went to a concert where my mate and I were possibly the only people not using. I felt no pain by about halfway through the gig! ✌️ Edited February 13, 2021 by VBF 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
VBF Posted February 13, 2021 Share Posted February 13, 2021 Just now, EddyGallagher said: Yeah hopefully it’s actually already more legal than that in the states even. I think it’s funny when they post drug bust articles where other drugs are seized like ketamine with weed and then they try to make it sound like it was all about the weed ????. If it had been just a weed party only they would have been ok more than likely. Maybe not in Thailand? Probably would which particular police officers were involved, wouldn't you say? ????

Also I’d rather them smoke weed than drink alcohol any day of the week. I’d get my facts down better if I was you. You know four women in their 50’s could easily be weed smokers as well!

It is relatively innocent, though increasingly powerful (not sure about here, since I am not familiar with the use of state of the art hydroponics here, like in the US). I used to enjoy it occasionally, until I didn't anymore. Have alot of friends and family who still do. Other than the lack of ambition it seems to instill in some smokers, I consider it way less harmful than alcohol. It should be completely legal, however the arrests seem to remain a lucrative franchise. 8 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I agree...as for gateway drugs, I see that in many cases, that's just an excuse for addictive personalities to use. Is beer a gateway drink to whiskey? No but if you are addictive, you may start with beer and move on to whiskey - kind of shooting the messenger, IMO. I like the "lack of ambition" quote ......that's called "chillin'' Like I said earlier, I don't smoke.....never mentioned cooking, did I? ???? 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Stevemercer Posted February 13, 2021 Share Posted February 13, 2021 Previously police would hardly respond to complaints about loud music and parties. Following the crack down on casinos they are now applying themselves with some zeal. Those who have complained on TV in the past about illegal casinos and regular loud parties, now is your chance (if someone hasn't already beaten you).
