klauswernst198 Posted October 22, 2010 Share Posted October 22, 2010 These 3 (2 pakistani + 1 thai dealer) are not the one time amateur offenders so there is no need to feel sorry for them. Dead sentenced is justified for this type of crimes. Conduct a fair trial and if found guilty execute the sentence by giving them the lucky shot.

What a dreadful party it must be with a bunch of smackheads sat watching TV monging out. Ive have sympathy for people caught with ecstasy, marijuana and such like, but Heroine does kill and genuinely ruins lives, so some you win some you lose for these guys.

They'll probably die in jail because of $ 1.80?????? EACH TIME. Actually I haven't met too many of them on parties. They prefer to hide somewhere like Zombies. Six times $ 1,80 would be 10,80 for six trips? Insane. Is it possible that they meant 1,600 bucks? :jap: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Renbe Posted October 23, 2010 Share Posted October 23, 2010 As long as there is demand, there will be supply. History shows over and over again that there are always poor suckers willing to risk their lives (literally) to smuggle illegal substances.

There is no accounting for total stupidity - ever. Enjoy the stay rag tops - They don't really manufacture it in the North of Thailand any more, mostly made in Burma. The white stuff, also called # four is much more expensive than the brown Pakistani shit. Most junkies or sniffers are used to this brown shit and especially at tourist destinations like Ko Panghan people are paying a lot of money to get rid of the monkey on their shoulders, or die overdosed. :jap: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Whilst im for legalising of many drugs i cant quite see how crack or heroine could possibly be legalised, though it seems the death sentence isnt even enough to deter people so i dont know what the answer is.
