Popular Post snoop1130 Posted November 27, 2023 Popular Post Share Posted November 27, 2023 Two foreign men faced criticism from Thai netizens after a video of them smoking cannabis on a motorcycle on a road in the Sukhumvit neighbourhood of Bangkok went viral on social media. The Twitter account, Red Skull, shared a video of the two foreigners yesterday, November 26. They were reportedly riding in Soi Sukhumvit 23 near the popular entertainment venue, Soi Cowboy. The foreign passenger, wearing a light-coloured shirt, was seen in the video holding a ganja bong, smoking and releasing the smoke. The passenger then handed the bong to his friend on the motorbike, who smoked it. Thai netizens agreed that the two seemed proud of their action and were trying to show off their ganja bong to other motorists. Some netizens expressed their disapproval of the foreigners, while others complained that the government’s measures were not effective enough to control cannabis use.

Captain Monday Posted November 27, 2023 Share Posted November 27, 2023 Probably they will track and make an example of this duo Question. We see countless checkpoints but has one ever witnessed RT police actively take some effort and pull a vehicle over for an act of reckless driving or other violation? 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Haha, I have seen many times highway police being passed quickly by vehicles that were speeding and the only time I see them on the side of the road is when they stop a trucker. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Pathetic Anyone on this thread mentioned 'no problem' ???.... or are you using a certain degree of 'Thai apologist' bias to attack this 'Thai Bashing' you have someone how imagined ????? As far as the topic is concerned: this behavior is idiotic and dangerous. The use of a 'bong' most certainly suggest marijuana use... this is as abhorrent as drink driving and I hope the Police find these idiots and deal with them appropriately - particularly the rider for riding under the influence... .... But 'under the influence' is actually difficult to prove unless they can catch them in time and test them - which I doubt they did... It can only be proven that they were riding without a helmet - so I hope at least they are charged with that (and anyone else not wearing a helmet, foreign or Thai).

I've started to take a different view of this site since reading George's comments on moderation just before the site went offline. I'm wondering if some of the posts and indeed some posters are simply 'planted' with the aim of obtaining more clicks. More clicks = a more appealing prospect to advertisers. Contraversial comments and posts almost always draw the most comments but I think that far more people view and never post - again greatly assisting the 'click' ratio. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
