MrSnrang Posted March 9, 2008 Share Posted March 9, 2008 Thats 150 baht a gram, maybe they were going via Samui to Columbia to sell it to the columbians.??? At just 150 baht a gram, how can you not snort it? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
howtoescape Posted March 9, 2008 Share Posted March 9, 2008 Police said Docosta also hid most of the drug in his anus. Now if the hard comedown or the extortionate price of coke doesnt stop you sniffing it, knowing youre snorting something that been up a blackmans bottom should.

londonthai Posted March 15, 2008 Share Posted March 15, 2008 snorting something that been up a blackmans bottom should. racism and sexism aside, would snorting something which was in a white waman's fanny more acceptable? there wasn't a tip off needed (if there was one they would be arrested on boarding in bangkok) - the airport police see the passengers list and cross check, how many times and how often they travel. It was one too many for them. if they were bangkok based, taking a taxi ride would safe their as*es Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
