Terrible, people enjoying themselves is obviously not in line with the new Thai culture promoted by the military and their supporters. Whatever next will this government try to stop ? people getting jobs and earning a living ?

Minors, underage children, and drugs.    "people enjoying themselves"?   As a parent, we must protect our children. 

 

If the kids were 10, doing drugs, out with 35 year old creepos.....is that OK?

 

Thailand draws the line at under 18.   protect children.

 

33 people on drugs.

 

clearly this is not a healthy environment, and I'm glad they stopped this behavior.

Where did you read about 10 year old kids doing drugs ? not in this story. Also you seem to think people who are 35 ( and presumably older )  are creepies ?  You appear to have a distorted view on life and make up fanciful stories in an attempt to justify your own personal opinion.

Did they also test for Covid? Shouldn’t there be info about testing for the virus if the raid of a place is because people were flaunting the Covid decree?

50% of the party goers on drugs....that's a lot, and likely normal in Thailand nowadays!

I fail to understand the message here, they were 77 people, from 16 yo to 37 yo, why mention the 17 yo? why no mention other ages?...

While I have no objection to people partying and enjoying themselves the idea of half the population on drugs is somewhat worrying for the future of Thai society in general.

Drugs are a normal acceptable  part of life. The war on drugs is war on the people.

The post WW2 was driven  by drugs as was the cultural revolution of the 60s then the financial  revolution of the 80s.

Console yourself with the fact that this was a group also breaking the (stupid) law by having the party, and not society in general.
