beano2274 Posted March 12, 2012 Share Posted March 12, 2012 (edited) Kurt Davit sounds truly British more American or German with Indian I would say, and the same about Heaton John Alexander (who the hell calls their son Heaton, bet he was popular at school). But who cares, just send them to the Hilton and let them survive there. Edited March 12, 2012 by beano2274 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Popular Post chinook Posted March 12, 2012 Popular Post Share Posted March 12, 2012 Not clever, but it's supply and demand. Until the Thai Govt gets real about drug education and starts giving the youth of this country alternative ways to spend their time and energy class A consumption won't go away.....look at rural Thailand...there's absolutely bugger all for the kids to do except online gaming, racing honda waves and getting out of their heads on chemicals....you should take a look around here in the sticks of Satun.....f***ing scary!!! As for all the hang em high <deleted> on this forum, as I said, supply and demand,, people were buying it from him because they wanted to, it was their choice.

I doubt he forced his stuff on customers. I agree with your "rural" comments. I grew up in Rhode Island in the USA. Used to spend a lot of summer vacations up in New Hampshire. In the 1970s, and late 1960's New Hampshire was very isolated, certainly in the winter time. The locals that I and my friends would run into really did drink and do a lot of drugs. The winters can be very boring to many kids. Some kids (like me) had the interest or ability to read and study and do scholastic things or had a big extended family ora fair amount of neighbors with kids nearby where we could play and get some stimulation. But the more rural areas are a chronic problem. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TAWP Posted March 12, 2012 Share Posted March 12, 2012 I am pro-legalization, but I am happy every time a big dealer is caught. Not the least for the reason that the people in the business is rarely nice business men, but ruthless criminals involved in a lot of bad things. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
damo Posted March 13, 2012 Share Posted March 13, 2012 (edited) This said that the drugs came from Dubai and included Yaba. I thought yaba was purely south east Asian and made in SEA. Either way, I'm glad to hear another loser has met mis demise. Enjoy a future of brown rice, beatings and your married life with a new husband.

jalansanitwong Posted March 13, 2012 Share Posted March 13, 2012 This is why no foreigners expecially those living in Thailand should drink in bars. You never know who you're sitting next to and who is filming it with a mobile phone . Plain clothes cops photograph locals and farangs everywhere including malls. Guilt by association.

arrowsdawdle Posted March 13, 2012 Share Posted March 13, 2012 Nice one. The more drug pushers and dealers caught and - hopefully - sent to the BKK Hilton, the better. This looks like thinning the competition while scoring press points and acquiring more "evidence" for the "locker." When was the last time a local other than a rogue or a mule was apprehended? When was the last time there was a transparent burning of evidence?" Trying to control the supply of drugs only benefits the suppliers. Eradication rests in throwing away the key on users. As demand subsides supply dries up. But then, what about all the budget and resources earmarked and increased annually for fighting drugs. Ooops, can't lose that, better try to arrest a drug dealer. Thank you notes should go out to Iran for the recent inbound ice traffic and subsequent photo ops. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
