So cannabis is legal now? Lol. Right

[starky]

So read a story in the news today about a Russian woman who died in Patong. Investigations are ongoing but most interestingly 1 man was charged with.. 

Police found a small amount of dried cannabis in the room, 1.10 grammes. They were charged with colluding in possessing a category 5 narcotic with intent to use.

 1 GRAM of dried cannabis? Lol be lucky to roll a spliff with that ao to those that thought (which probably isn't many) that any laws regarding the use of cannabis have been relaxed. I would just say be very careful.

This story happened last week?

It was still an illegal substance last week,legal since yesterday.

Try to keep up with the news.

Medicinal weed is legal, recreational with much more THC isn't.

[nikmar]

it s been clearly explained that ganja with over 0.2% THC content is still classed as a narcotic. Im guessing his "recreational" weed is over that.

You read about that today?  Any other old news that you could keep us abreast of?!

[KhunLA]

Legal enough not to be worried about being imprisoned for it ... that's good enough for responsible people.  

 

Just use that uncommon common sense ... hopeful thinking anyway ????

Medicinal weed nearly always has a much higher THC content than CBD content.

Normally the ratio is 20% THC, 1-2% CBD.

Would point out its illegal to smoke anything in a Thai restaurant.

Yeah not 100% legal... you forget to mention that it is the under 0.2% THC that is legal. Bar stool lawyers giving their opinions on legal matters are more than likely to get people in trouble than not. 

We will need to see legal precedents set and amendments to the law before anyone can say it is safe to own anything over .2%

 

BTW I am in no way a lawyer... nor a stool

Eeeeeeeeerm, it is a very famous quote from 'Pulp Fiction"

Probably not famous enough. ????

 

[Bert got kinky]

just to clarify, from the script of Pulp Fiction

 

Jules Winnfield:
Okay, so, tell me about the hash bars.

Vincent Vega:
So what you want to know?

Jules:
Well, hash is legal there, right?

Vincent:
Yeah, it's legal, but it ain't a hundred percent legal. I mean, you can't walk into a restaurant, roll a joint, and start puffin' away. They want you to smoke in your home or certain designated places.

Jules:
Those are hash bars?

Vincent:
Breaks down like this, okay: it's legal to buy it, it's legal to own it, and if you're the proprietor of a hash bar, it's legal to sell it. It's illegal to carry it, but that doesn't really matter 'cause, get a load of this, all right; if you get stopped by the cops in Amsterdam, it's illegal for them to search you. I mean, that's a right the cops in Amsterdam don't have.

Jules:
[laughing] Oh, man. I'm going, that's all there is to it. I'm f***ing going.

Cannabis has been decriminalised which is not the same a legalised.

Darn... missed that one! hahaha maybe next time put it in brackets. I watched many Tarrantino movies but it is the music that gets me more. More than the dialogues actually.

 

 

 

I ain't very good on quotes, I usually manage to garble my own, once in a while though.

Absolutely and a step  in the right  direction first started by Portugal,  now joined  by Germany but Broken Britain  where the police  cause fights at festivals  by raiding dances and teen girls are strip searched.

No no no Nikmar, you'll end up in the slammer for .2% ganja, the limit is 0.02%.

Exactly. If you are using cannabis for depression, you'd be using high level THC weed I would think.

According to this strong buds are legal it is just extracts that are illegal.

The simplest thing I have seen yet. If its truly from the Royal Police and/or Bangkok Post, thats pretty much the final word. I guess this forum needs to generate discussion and something as straight forward as this doesn't do that. Thanks again Don Chance!

I have a question.  Vaping was outlawed in 2014 in Thailand.  Does this apply to vaping cannabis with a THC content lower than the 0.2% stipulated or does it just apply to e-cigarettes and such?  Thanks!  I am too old to to anything illegal, but I do know that vaping is the best and most efficient way to use cannabis for medical needs.  Thanks in advance for your information.

Moved to the Cannabis Forum.

Post containing graphic from Bangkokpost removed.

 

 

Bangkokpost content is not permitted.

It seems the .2 limit is only for extracts. There does not appear to be a limit on flower potency.
