RJRS1301 Posted November 22, 2021 Share Posted November 22, 2021 (edited) Bring in Joe Ferari he will find out fast, and be able to market the cars and the contents, without finding who is responsible.???? No need to know that, just the supplier will do Edited November 22, 2021 by RJRS1301 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

blackprince Posted November 22, 2021 Share Posted November 22, 2021 (edited) 4 hours ago, Thailand said: One arrested and will be released next year when it is made legal? This is a common misunderstanding. The cannabis variety that has recently been legalised in Thailand is the medicinal CBD variant - it won't get you high. It's not yet commonly available yet because the first crop (highly controlled and licensed) has not been cut, processed, packaged, distributed or retailed (though some participtaing hospitals have had small amounts for quite a while to research the various processing methods). The cannabis variety which remains illegal in Thailand is the narcotic THC variant. There are no plans to legalise this.

blackprince Posted November 22, 2021 Share Posted November 22, 2021 (edited) I noticed this on the menu at the Pizza Company restaurant yesterday. I didn't try it but the waitress advised me that the picture does not represent how the pizza is served. The greenery is cut into small pieces and added to the mix. As mentioned above, this is the CBD variety, but obviously in tiny amounts that will have no therapeutic effect. Certainly not the "crazy happy pizza" effect that certain people might be looking for ???? Edited November 22, 2021 by blackprince 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Popular Post ed strong Posted November 22, 2021 Popular Post Share Posted November 22, 2021 If i had 700k of weed to transport, my first thought would not be lets literally fill up two cars with it and drive down the road! Its clearly still in the same suspicious packaging also! No wonder they are always getting caught, its either a tip off and just plain stupidity 1 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

But maybe you don't know this also... What i do know is that its not wise to get caught with any amount let alone 700 kilos! The vast majority of the seizures are tip offs and its the same drugs doing circles in and out custody. Just find it surprising considering how cheap labour is that some other perhaps more efficient plan of moving drugs around Thailand. For eg set up a recovery vehicle company and transport the 'faulty / loaded' car on the back of a small transporter, and then therefore you cannot be responsible for the contents of someone else's car, should you get caught and do it in the middle of the day. As opposed to a couple of herberts driving at 3 am loaded with packages that look exactly like what it is! 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
