Guest Posted February 19, 2014 Share Posted February 19, 2014 I'll be waiting for the first "Italian? That name doesn't sound like an Italian name." -comment. Good to read that BiB is catching some of these death dealers. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Blindside Posted February 19, 2014 Share Posted February 19, 2014 Good to read that BiB is catching some of these death dealers. Only because their superintendent told them too. Seriously though, I agree with you. Many of the coming social problems (worse than now) will be the result of Meth addiction. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Popular Post sirchai Posted February 19, 2014 Popular Post Share Posted February 19, 2014 He'll have to deal with similar problems from now on, Neither a restaurant, nor shit on the bed. There're no beds. One day an Italian Man went to a restaurant in Malta and wanted two pieces of toast, and the waiter gives him one, and the Italian man says "I want two piece" The waiter said "go to the toilet" The Man says "You no understand I want two piece on my plate" then the waiter says "You better not piss on the plate you son of a bitch!" The man says "I did not even know her and she calls me a Son of a Beach?" Then he goes to a bigger restaurant and finds himself with a spoon and a knife but no fork, he says "I want a fock" the waiter says "Everybody wants to <deleted>" and he says "You no understand I want to fock on the table" and the waiter says "You better not <deleted> on the table you son of a bitch!" Then later he goes to a hotel and in bed he doesn't have a sheet "Call the manager im telle him i wanna sheet!" says the Italian man, then the other guy says "Go to the toliet" and the Italian man say "You no understand I wanna sheet in my bed!" and the other guy says you better not shit in the bed you son of a bitch!" and the Italian man goes to the check out corner and the check out says "Peace on you" and the Italian man says "PISS ON YOU TOO, YOU SON OF A BEACH! I'M GOING BACK TO ITALY!" No offense to Italians. Guess it was all a misunderstanding.- 9 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
sirchai Posted February 19, 2014 Share Posted February 19, 2014 An Ex- Stasi agent I've met, who was sentenced to prison, just because they'd found a mini cam in his spare tire, pretty much unusual these days had the right statement about drug dealers. If you let's say would get 10 years prison, when get caught dealing drugs, but you could earn the same amount of money through an honest job, you're considered a stupid man. Beside that, I'd seen and worked with so many wrecks,caused by drugs like speed that I don't want my son taking that shit. Well, a foreigner selling to an undercover cop seems to sell it to everybody. It's easy. No sellers. No buyers. - Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If we the people had some courage, not too much just a little bit, we would make friends with the fat boy in North Korea. He would take care of the dope heads much cheaper then we ever could and he would be happy. Of course the lawyers etc would be sad, Edited February 19, 2014 by BlueSkyCowboy 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Well, a foreigner selling to an undercover cop seems to sell it to everybody. It's easy. No sellers. No buyers. - It's not about the drugs, it's about the people. We all know that smoking, alcohol, gambling (and to a certain degree social media) can cause addiction and ruin lives. Yet they are all legal. I'm pretty sure that alcohol and smoking causes more deaths/sad destinys than category 1 drugs. I call bullshit, but that's another discussion. Case in point (without being an advocate for drug use, mind you): Been doing this and that back when I lived back in farangland, always in a controlled manner (perhaps once every second month) and always in a social context. Never felt the compelling need for "another one", and I haven't touched anything in that category of recreationals for more than 6 years now. That comes from a guy who won't eat pain killers unless it's *really* bad. That said, I'm a smoker, enjoy my occasional single malt, and can't live without 2 cups of coffee in the morning. No sellers, no buyers? True, but will never happen. If there's a market, there's products and sellers. All it boils down to is the price and how hard it is to purchase. But doing this in TH? Stupid. Just stupid. Edited February 19, 2014 by Zumteufel 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Understandable that you're trying to "defend" your brother. Why are you all shirtless?

Just stupid. Seems we're both from the same country and you know that I know what happens there when they find such an "amount" of drugs. It might make it to the local newspaper, that's it. Drug sellers, mostly from other countries play the innocent addicts and enjoy an expensive therapy paid by taxpayers. Okay, that doesn't work either. Sad is that too many weird guys come to this country and give all of us a bad name. Then they change law by law and make it even harder for others who don't do such bullshit. Nobody says something about recreationals,. Speed kills. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

oldsailor35 Posted February 19, 2014 Share Posted February 19, 2014 "Our superintendant asked us to stomp on drugs, so we chased up a lead" I see, they already had a lead onto a drug dealer, but were not going to chase it until the Superintendant told them to. Looks like they have just had to sacrifice another "tea money source" I wonder how many more that they have up their sleeves. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

gdringjr Posted February 19, 2014 Share Posted February 19, 2014 What I find interesting about this story is that if the seizure and arrest occurred as reported than there was no judicial oversight which means the police could have easily brought the "stash" in with them. No mention is made of the police explaining their suspicions to a judge or magistrate and attempting to obtain authorization to search the mans home. The story says the police knocked, identified themselves, entered the mans home and took his drugs. No warrant. No due process. No right to privacy. Of course I want criminals arrested and put in jail but knowing that the Thai police can enter my home whenever they like, without judicial oversight is the frightening aspect of this story. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
