You need to get out more and live a little. Forgive them , they really don't know what they are talking about, they are literally victims of government produced propaganda based purely on misinformation. its probably best that you don't encourage them to "get out and live a little" I would prefer it if they stayed in their houses and kept their ridiculous thoughts to themselves 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Even more unbelievable is posting rubbish to publicly demonstrate one's complete ignorance, Thailand and the rest of the civilised world is already a legally sanctioned alcoholic paradise (despite the "war on drugs") but you don't mention that. "ganja paradise" a phrase straight out of reefer madness You should be able to do better than insult and use the tired deflection of alcohol. So many have lived lives fine so far without this stuff, just see no need to promote it now! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

True but actually really good to see him without one. Lets hope other government officials follow this , the time of the mass masking is slowly but surely coming to an end.

He was never qualified for the job, he completely blew the initial vaccination effort, he presided over the closing of the nation to tourism, and the overly draconian restrictions later, which severely damaged the tourism industry, and the local economy, and now after a those failures, he says he wants to lead the nation. A true empty suit. A bottom of the barrel minister. Waging a war on drugs is like trying to stop the tides from rising. You either approach the problem from within (police reform, legalization, counseling options for addicts, cracking down on highly suspect border officials, etc.), or you just stop the hyperbole and charade. I've never really been into drugs, I'm much more of a boozer. I also think they have been a scouge on society. However, I believe the world needs a totally different approach, considering that what has happened so far with criminalisation has been a failure. The 'war on drugs' has been lost. Many years ago I remember one of the top cops in London saying that the Metropolitan Police has no problem at all with drugs, The problem that they do have is the crime that people commit to get the money to pay for them. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I actually do not worry as surely there are opposing concerns too... I don't need drugs in my life... but I think cannabis should be available to those who can benefit from using it, like Parkinson's sufferers, as an example. Of course its an unsubstantiated claim, how could it be anything else but i think most would agree its a reasonably credible figure. when considering not just those incarcerated for simple possession who will have received a criminal record but also their families who will have been deprived of a breadwinner , How many would you estimate have been negatively affected. ? I read 80,000 were released in Thailand alone It shouldn't stretch your intellect too much to imagine how many others have suffered and are still suffering worldwide Whilst criminal organisations have made billions ( again a reasonable estimate in my opinion even if unsubstantiated) The issue of Police and drug taking is its self a deflection in the context of reporting the tragic event that happened last week, Firstly the guy was not a policeman , he had been sacked, and Secondly a drugs test indicated he had not recently taken any drugs So you have no wish to smoke cannabis, that's up to you, but why on earth would you wish to restrict its use to those with chronic diseases? It demonstrates a weird desire to control the lives of others , based on your own irrational fears. At the risk of being accused of "deflection" again, do you also think (irrationally) that alcohol should also be criminalised and restricted to those with a chronic debilitating disease in light of the recent tragedy? as that was not found in his blood either Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I don't like the guy at all, but full respect on what he's done for the people and weed. I don't understand the issue with him making any money from the legalisation of cannabis, So many others were making so much more when it was illegal and continue to do so from the continuing illegal status of other drugs, yet I don't hear the prohibitionists complaining about that. Considering the complete ineffectiveness of the illegality one can't help but wonder who's interests the illegality actually serves, It certainly doesn't help the general public or the users but its a real earner for those involved in the supply As other members oh here have suggested ...follow the money, its really not that difficult Edited October 13, 2022 by Bday Prang 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Weed is no longer a drug!!! Why? Cos its been declassified? So alcohol, nicotine, caffiene are not drugs either? He is ill informed, as usual. Placing him as health minister has always been a huge mistake. Time reveals that more and more. He would have been more accurate had he said it is a milder and less addictive drug, which results in less psychotic behavior. Let us call this mistake #230 from the empty suit minister. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
prakhonchai nick Posted October 13, 2022 Share Posted October 13, 2022 Let the government decide whats legal and what's not, and punish the transgressors accordingly. Same with the myriad of motoring laws, that nobody adheres to because there are so few punishments meted out. The failure to enforce laws in both regards costs many many lives!
