An Italian man

Makes a change from the daily 'British man' postings 

A reported off topic post as well as another off topic joke post as well as bickering posts have been removed.

The man blamed marijuana for his shocking behaviour, however, the man later reportedly tested positive for crystal methamphetamine or ‘ice‘.

Ice, Ice Baby.

 

The guy's a tweaker, he went for the top-shelf meth. (It was probably the preferred choice of his Thai "GF".)

 

Of course he blamed cannabis. It's legal. It's not like he's going to admit he was smoking meth.

 

He'll be playing for the Italian side in the Khlong Prem League.

 

 

And all the saps who fell for this "story". Ha. Credibility rating reset to zero.

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

Why is a fat win driver going in with a rolled up towel? Is he going to whip him?

 

Only in Pattaya, where the dregs of Thailand meet the unwanted from the rest of the world.

Yaa Baa, so bad for all, nearly as bad as alcohol.

Ah!  MD 2020!  What Four Loko aspires to be when it grows up!

Your post will doubtless survive the moderators blade.

 

My rage at the ignorance and dissimulation of those who will not acknowledge the dangers may have been the death of mine.

 

You have posted what constitutes the stoners very own "Inconvenient Truth".

 

 

Seems that  you missed that there was no marijuana found in his system ????

Weed induced violence is well documented.

Have you read the article..?

 

"According to the Thai news outlet Channel 3 Plus, authorities did not find evidence of marijuana use when drug-testing Antonio. When Antonio’s urine was purple, police brought him to a hospital for another examination, and found that there was a narcotic substance in his body. Police then handed Antonio to investigators on allegations of using a type 1 drug (ice)."

Are you saying that this Italian man was suffering from THC induced paranoia? I mean in your "expert" opinion?

Not difficult to find info on links between marijuana and paranoia. Are they all wrong, in YOUR "expert" opinion?

Yes, I know some of you will say you have been smoking it for years and never experienced it.  I have been driving for years and never had an accident. It doesn't mean accidents are impossible, just unlikely.

Now that you know the perp tested positive for yaba, don't you feel a bit silly blaming THC for this?  You were wrong and I was right, haha!  Neener neener.  ????  Seriously, to your point, the studies do show that THC can trigger underlying psychosis as those articles do point out, but the number of people with underlying psychosis is small, and such psychoses can be also triggered by alcohol and yaba, so I still think this anti-marijuana hysteria is way overblown.  

probably thought he was Keith Moon

Been smoking weed for years and never felt violent. They also claim weed makes you loose your memory but …..forgot where I was going with this

If you read my posts, I did say a toxicology report was needed before jumping to any conclusions.

As I suspected. Gelato. Must be a Neapolitan.

Marijuana may be driving a surge in schizophrenia cases among young men, a major Government-funded study suggests.

Researchers backed by the National Institute on Drug Abuse estimated 30 percent of schizophrenia cases in men aged 21 to 30 are linked to cannabis addiction.

Overall across all age groups, the analysis of 6 million people found 15 percent of diagnoses in men and four percent in women could be attributed to the drug.

Dr Nora Volkow, NIDA director and co-author of the study, said the results called for 'urgent action' and demanded people think twice before smoking marijuana.

Schizophrenia cases have been rising in recent decades, linked to growing and aging populations. But the researchers warn it could become more common as marijuana becomes increasingly legal.

Fair point, you did say that and I agreed with your statement if you read my posts!   ???? However, you were still wrong about the role of marijuana in violence for the reasons I stated.  Basically, the only time marijuana seems to "make people violent" is when an underlying psychosis is triggered.  This is not true for drugs like alcohol which can make people dangerous and violent completely out of the blue after just a few drinks.  Marijuana is so much more mild that to even consider it here was ridiculous in my opinion.

Marijuana does tend to trigger latent psychoses in some people, Alcohol triggers violence in some people, in me it just makes me sleepy.

 

I can't honestly say whether you are right about there needing to be an underlying psychosis to be triggered for violence to erupt, I'm not qualified to do that.  I can say though that there is an increased incidence in violence where Marijuana has been consumed.
