Dry ice?

To be disposed of as transparently as the pork?

A little less unimaginable suffering hits the streets, good. I think Siam may need to get the reputation as "great place to smoke Pot, but really really strict place for hard drugs = jail/death". A few public executions of drug makers, and the drug problem destroying the World would diminish. I see no other way and am involved with Drug Rehabs in Thailand and Australia. Aus is awash in Coke and Meth at present but have not seemed to have discovered Crack. Once they do, it will not be pretty. Stuff of nightmares. China is making a lot of this stuff, they know about all citizens and could stop a lot of this if they chose to.

I was wondering if China is involved with meth in Thailand via Laos, like they are with fentanyl in the west via Mexico. thanks for confirming it. all part of their destabilizing program, they get cash and we get problems, win-win for Xi
