Secondary school boy's heart stops after he's forced to smoke marijuana by older pupils, he "nearly dies"

[webfact]

Picture: Siam Rath

 

Siam Rath had a very short report in which their headline was almost as long as their story.

 

The headline said: "Nearly dies! M1 child forced by elder M3 pupils to take 'ganja' - in shock and unconscious - heart stops beating"

 

In their two line story they said it happened at a school in Loei (in Thailand's north east) where M3 pupils forced the younger pupil to smoke the drug.

 

The boy was taken to hospital after the incident on February 2nd.

 

M1 indicates the first year of secondary education in Thailand, M3 the third, notes ASEAN NOW.

Don't forget to say thank you to Anutin, for not allowing school children to buy or use marijuana.

This has nothing to do with Anutin.

Talk to the parents of the kids!

any underlying conditions?  amount?  what strand or whatever the dopers call it?  need a little more information.

 

definitely suspend the older kids, legal action whatever......but I'm not about to blame the ganga just yet.   I would like to, as I don't like any kind of smoke, but I think there is more to the story.

Sounds unlikely.

I'd suspect it of being pure anti-MJ (or Anutin) propaganda.

I don't believe smoking any amount of cannabis would cause a heart to stop beating.

This Hass to be the only country in the world has legalized weed that he’s blaming everything on weed is many reasons why a heart stops the guy robs. I tried to rob a girl from a motorcycle and now he blames on with this thia people blame everything. Nobody takes responsibility here, TT.

You can not blame Anutin either,you must have some premium stuff there.

100%. More to this than meets the eye.

This amounts to simple bullying. The current strains of ganga can be very strong, so it is possible the young boy was quite sick or shocked by it. But, the bit about his heart nearly stopping is silly and churlish. 

 

Bullying is a serious offense. If I were the parent of this kid I would come up with some very creative ways to punish the kids who did this.

To the boys up in Loei;

 

DO ME !  DO ME !

Is Siam Rath the Thai version of National Enquirer or The Sun?

So I take it kids weren't smoking weed prior to Anutin legalising it. I know from my Thai family and others that Thai parents never show any responsibility towards their kids. How would they know because their parents were exactly the same.

nope; they were using Ya Ba

Thai parents are the out of sight, out of mind when it comes to parenting

Sounds like good sh*t. Anyone got the name?

The medical team that visited me recently, in my hotel.....in Colombia, were concerned about exactly that.

 

They were on permanent standby to attend the hotel........the most expensive in the city.

 

They had ECG equipment with them.......it took a lot of them talking to me before my psychotic state abated sufficiently for me to allow them to use it.

 

My first weed experience for 40 years.......an extremely unpleasant experience for me and those close to me........it was not a pretty sight

 

Read some academic articles on a whole new wave of health issues, mental/physical, arising from unrestrained use of what has become a highly "developed" product.

 

Dope ain't what it used to be........a very different "substance" to that of my youth.

Totally different from their "caring and attentive"  western counterparts. In the UK for example, all children are reared by saint like parents and naturally develop into  perfect little angels who never put a foot wrong.
