Popular Post Charlest1971 Posted January 15 Popular Post Share Posted January 15 3 hours ago, lexxy said: No word, insight or consideration for the benefits of medical marijuana? - many studies have shown this. Yes, but medical use, only usually involves CBD, and not the ‘high’ inducing THC element of Cannabis. And yet most of the marijuana, sold in Thailand, is packed with THC, for recreational use. So, no there are no medical benefits of THC based pot. 🤷♀️ 8 3 2 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Brilliant!!! Yep. The recreational industry will play whac-a-mole with the current law at the time and supplement any grey areas with envelopes. 1 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Think of the number of people and businesses that would be out of work if that were the case. I would not have been out and about chucking money around for the first 15 years in Thailand! That said, in old age, I might welcome a few places that did not serve alcohol, yet had the 'other' entertainment. Currently I cannot trust myself.... it would be 'just the one'... and on to Nirvana! 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Alcohol is another subject entirely. It's not relevant to use alcohol as an excuse to allow recreational cannabis use, and it's off topic. Disagree entirely. They are both drugs that effect the behavior of the taker. One is widely accepted and is behind a lot of mayhem and deaths the other is frowned on and is not known for causing aggressive behavior. You can't cherry pick with drugs and just ok the ones you like and are familier with. If there is going to be an argument that cannabis is undesireable for whatever reason then those same reasons should be applied to all drugs without bias. Personnaly , if there is one aspect of the cannabis legalization that I find tiresome it is the ' in your face ' advertising. If it is illegal to have alcohol or cigarette advertising the same should apply to cannabis. That would mean no more shops with daft fronts that have become a bit of an eyesore in tourist areas. 2 2 1 5 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

JackGats Posted January 15 Share Posted January 15 The charade of medical use. Bloody medical establishment want to rule the world and have their cut in everything. Cannabis has always been about getting high. Same in the US. If all you want to legalise is CBD then you're not legalising anything. And if you want to criminalise "non-medical use" then you're (re)criminalising cannabis, period. 1 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
