Clearly there’s a back story behind this that we have yet to hear about. I’m guessing that these derps bought a load of ganja - or seeds - from the trader that turned out to be hemp or some other <deleted>.

 

As for the ‘safe’, they’re probably referring to the cash box that pretty much every Thai business has behind the counter.

The Englishman must have been very strong to pick up and carry off a safe. If the safe was locked and there was no key with it, how did he think that he would open it?

Angle grinder usually works.

With a grinder, big screwdriver & a hammer a 120kg safe will be opened under a half hour for amateurs. I have a old one here where I lost the keys & forget the code. I was surprised how easy it was.

I opened it self because the shop wanted 1.800,- THB for opening & 1.800,- THB for a new lock. 2.hand price start around 3.500,-THB.

But after I saw how easy it was to open it, I decided to use the money for go dinner with my wife.

Wow what strange remark. SO if someone robs a bank its the bankrobbers fault. Nobody would blame the bank but now that a canabis shop is robbed  is the weed effect . I wonder why. Maybe a bit bias old peoples view of drugs.

Herbs are not drugs. If made of chemical then I call it drug

"Siam Rath reported that the Pattaya police chief Pol Col Thanapong Photi along with the provincial police and an international crime section arrested two foreigners...."

 

A lot of heavyweight authority there for a simple crime? Oh, sorry, there is a 3rd under investigation - that's one each!

Is this a new definition of drug? Surely you meant it as a joke.

It didn't mention any stolen weed, they went for the money.

 

Seems they arrested those who did it and some random guy from Ireland who for all we know might have just been in the shop at the time or walking past.

Why?  B170,000 doesn't need a big safe, the smallest available would be more than big enough.

You really think that the contents of small safes, worked on in the thief's own time, could not be accessed without a key?

If you're prone to being easily agitated, suffer from anxiety and paranoia, and occasional bouts of "this absurd activity makes perfect sense, why not", stay away from the sativa. You must instead indulge in the indica, which will make you kick back, chill, and Praise Jah irie irie mon!

Is opium not a drug, and that is not chemical?

 

https://museum.dea.gov/exhibits/online-exhibits/cannabis-coca-and-poppy-natures-addictive-plants/opium-poppy

 

The poppy plant, Papaver somniferum, produces opium, a powerful narcotic whose derivatives include morphine, codeine, heroin, and oxycodone. The term “narcotic” refers to opium, opium derivatives, and their semi-synthetic substitutes. Narcotics are used therapeutically to treat pain, suppress cough, alleviate diarrhea, and induce anesthesia. However, they are some of the most addictive substances known to man. As misused drugs, they are often smoked, sniffed, or injected.

You know how small in volume B170k is?  It's not even two bundles of B1000s.

You know how small safes can be?
