Neeranam Posted October 20, 2014 Share Posted October 20, 2014 Actually, the U.S. has started to legalize it. Also, you won't get locked up with murdering tittyfucking rapists in the UK for smoking a joint or will you be a convicted criminal for even possessing any traces in your urine regardless to where it was consumed. Some people use medical marijuana in their home countries and are not allowed to visit Thailand. Any further argument? Why did it take them so long? They decided that alcohol was perfectly safe back in the early 1900's. Mindless idiots is the reason, biased because they probably like a drink themselves but are too close-minded to try something new. People don't get locked up here for small amounts of marijuana. Marijuana is non habit forming so these tourist can easily come here for a couple of weeks. Go tell that BS in front of the grave of my brother-in-law from former times whose life was so stuffed up with the crap that he ended up hanging himself. It pisses me off when I see those who would use the stuff going on about how great it is and how it should be legal when I have seen first hand the damage it can do to people their lives and their families. Bad enough having tobacco readily available for the young to get addicted to without adding anything else. Mindless idiots are the ones who would allow the stuff so those whose lives are so pitiful that they need a drug can get themselves doped up. Your BIL obviously had problems mentally and marijuana was used as a scapegoat excuse for his pasting. Alcohol is a drug, do your drink Alcohol? And how many people have been killed by drunken fools behind the wheel etc.? Go back to sleep my friend... Actually alcohol isn't a drug but I agree with you post otherwise.

Marijuana is non habit forming so these tourist can easily come here for a couple of weeks. I really don't think they ever found it perfectly safe - they found it taxable - it is a habit forming drug that causes many deaths and broken families just like the abuse of any mind altering drug does if not used properly. It is so bad you cannot even have a pumpkin festive in NH without a load of nitwits showing up a ruining everything because of excessive use the drug alcohol. Now that whole town will pay the price for those that can't handle the use of legal drugs. In other words the use of it often has externalization which are defined by law as hurtful and destructive to those around the users like drunk drivers - the status of its misuse is out of control world wide. I don't support a ban on alcohol but better control on it and adding drugs which the main purpose of and current existence of is to enrich a criminal element is not helpful to the cause of saving lives and families. It is simply not necessary, the promotion of drug use demonstrates and simple mind. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sviss Geez Posted October 20, 2014 Share Posted October 20, 2014 519 sachets half a tonne? Don't say you need a calculator to know how much 519 sachets of 1kg each weigh. a sachet is a small bag, certainly not 1kg. They probably guessed the powder was taken from half a tonne of plants - more propaganda to show Prayuth cleaning u the country. "Sachet" was a translation, certainly not a quote.

I'm not one who'd have to worry, but I've heard stories over the years and it sounds like tourists etc caught with tiny amounts of ganja are being pressed for 100,000 Bt "fines." I heard 20,000 a couple of years ago. So if you don't have the money….they just send you on your way? Right. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RKASA Posted October 20, 2014 Share Posted October 20, 2014 Thailand should get away from it's current shit status and be the first country to legalize weed over here. why don't you ever hear of any stories from places like Amsterdam? I'm still amazed how society plays by last generations rules. Too bad that this country is full of mindless zombies who actually think weed is the same as yaba. So much stupidity here. What do you mean "so much stupidity here"? I think you'll find mindless zombies in countries like the US and UK who think weed is more harmful than alcohol. Yes, but many states in US now have a better understanding and have now legalized it. Isn't it ironic when the only reason its illegal in Thailand is because of the so called American war on drugs. It was illegal in Thailand before the war on drugs - if you were even old enough to have been here back when you would know that - Thailand's drug laws a based primarily on Buddhist teaching which also dislike the taxable and legal drugs they already suffer from and which many Thai's would love to add to the current list.

You may be correct, but was that Buddhist law enforced back then? I cant imagined it was as so many Thais used to cook with it. What I do know is that America warned Thailand that if they don't tighten up their drug laws on Marijuana that they will stop International trade with Thailand. So todays mess came from the American War On Herb. Wrong again Cech Please see status of prostitution in Thai law and stop confusing some degrees of tolerance past or present with any type of acceptance - It was the UN that pressed them over human trafficking in 1960 even before US servicemen arrived in Thailand that coded into law that prostitution which was never really acceptable in the first place would be illegal but, Thai's are good at hating sin and loving sinners so to speak as there are parts to Thainess that even non Thai's can understand. It was not and is not the fault of the US that prostitution is illegal in Thailand and they never stopped trade over the fact that it continued in country. The US presses to stop the international traffic of humans too - I hope you don't have a problem with that. The US does not dictate local Thai law concerning the use of drugs and has treaties with regard to cross border trafficking that they sometime have to remind certain corrupt parts they still have a problem with. It is a matter of enforcement of agreements which are basically worthless if you don't and the Thai's agreed to those treaties because they also agree to that cause. Spinning the 'if you little people don't conform thing' is pure propaganda from America haters - show me a quote that says we will stop all trade with Thailand if you don't do what we want and sign these papers or else. Thailand wants a war on drug traffic too - even if you don't get that. Most of what these agreements are made of is the sharing of Intel and resources and little if any to do with the day to day enforcement of any laws anyway. It all has nothing to do with cooking with it - just grow your own in the back yard and don't sell it in truck loads internationally, or package it primarily to sell to kids, and like some level of prostitution and porn in Thailand you can get away with it or should I say no one cares much. If you get busted by Thai police for smoking a joint on the beach it is not the US forcing them to hammer your ass, they got nothing to do with that. If the cops show up at a club and force everyone to piss - the US has nothing to do with it - because largely they object to that level of enforcement - that is done by the heavy local hand because they can and want to. You might also be alarmed to know that most Thai's support that activity and level of enforcement and don't want drug use in this country - I guess your going to next call that US brainwashing.

CobraSnakeNecktie Posted October 20, 2014 Share Posted October 20, 2014 China has an influence on Thailand also and don't want people thinking out of the box China had a bad experience with the opium wars with losing Hong Kong and Macau. Would be encouraging if the USA's progressively relaxed stance would influence Thailand but doubt any change soon. The rest of East Asia powers are pretty anti drug with Japan, Taiwan and Korea being harsh. I think I read it's legal in North Korea but I doubt its any Amsterdam or Denver experience Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Must have been one of those Anons Chan boys in white face taking a brake from promoting wiki leaks or blaming GW for 9/11. I am not giving you an opinion BTW - if you walk out your door and pay attention you will find this is all called the reality that most of us see happening in real time.

Popular Post sgtsabai Posted October 20, 2014 Popular Post Share Posted October 20, 2014 America's "war on drugs" has been a disaster (and a big time money maker for private prisons-that's a clue folks) for America and the rest of the world. Kinda' like all the rest of the wars the Amerikan government started. I remember quite well "Thai sticks" from Vietnam days. We used to watch "Reefer Madness" for a laugh. Oh and btw, I'm no liberal, not a pacifist by a long shot. I'm a left wing radical and have been since my little vacation in Vientam courtesy Uncle Sam's Misguided Children. I know a lady that lived not too far from my house here who's dad grew pot. I certainly don't think the Thai government started enforcing jail for pot until the Amerikan gov't thought it would be a good "idea". Pot still very popular with many Thais these days. Just as an aside, I think half the "ladies" from Ban Dung are working in Udon these days...lol. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

richard peters Posted October 20, 2014 Share Posted October 20, 2014 'Tincture of cannabis' was sold by American drug stores in the early 1900's, with very beneficial health results, but like all substances, problems arise where abuse and over-use are concerned. I had cancer treatment in Australia and only used morphine , etc, for the pain, but I think that intelligent use of M-J would have had less side effects. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Just as an aside, I think half the "ladies" from Ban Dung are working in Udon these days...lol. Well we were here about the same age and time then - you could buy a kilo for 5 dollars, Thai stick was laced with morphine and powder morphine was everywhere. Rent a home was 12 dollars a month and a T-lok was cheap enough - if you lived in country full time it was not long that most of us got tried of it all. To be an official railroader you had to lay 100 different Thai's in 90 days. After a time you would simply rejoin the human race again and spend time with real people. I am fully informed on what Thailand is and was like over some time but it is only what you want that gets you to that place - it is not everywhere you go. My point is in Thailand they don't want that and it is nothing to do with us. Most Thai 'the majority' and that is from all parties the one thing they can agree on. So the times changed long ago and the US really had nothing to do with the fact that Thailand does not allow and will never allow legal drug use and frankly they would prefer to see an end to human trafficking also. BTW back home we watched movies on TV but the sound track was from a radio station that changed the script. you know what I mean. Here in Thailand my father in law grew pot and had the coolest bong I ever saw - it was just for them. He was not out to build an empire of death and corruption and he worked hard everyday and no one bothered him. In the US the local war on drugs like many programs becomes an empire on to itself - local police get weapons and trucks and a salary of 60k a year each without having to even use local taxes and then have to go out and use it or lose it. It has more to do with big government and its tools then even wanting to win a war or bust anybody. It is the same waste fraud and abuse most all government programs end up in, but strangely the most out spoken have the longest list of other programs they like even if the wasted result is the same. The real war got spun off like a comet into a government mandate run a mock. I am not saying the war on drugs is completely right but nether has many other government programs had any better record of success and many want those more funded anyway. Busting johnny pimple face for a joint never stopped the flow of money into the hands of the wrong people and if there ever was a case to prove the need for limited government the war on drugs on the home front would be near the top of my list. The International War is a completely different thing then all of that. There really are some bad guys out there and running drug is one of the ways they afford to do many bad things The issue in Thailand as in the US is - does making it legal fix that problem and really the answer is no because the true and original effort has nothing to do with the users anyway. The International drug trade and local use are two completed different animals that simple cross path at times but remain largely unrelated outside the minds of some people in media. Based on my own life experience both on a private and professional level, allowing drug use is not a future I would endorse ether just like so many Thai's don't - but that does not mean I want to kick your door down - we leave that sh-- to the bloated local government clowns that have more of other peoples money on their account then they have sense to use. It was stated some how that it is the US that is to blame for people that might be prosecuted in Thailand for drug use - simple pure unadulterated BS. No one is twisting Thailand's arm to search out and persecute Thai people on their behalf - it is smoke and mirror of people with an agenda to bash the US anyway they can and as often as possible. Stop the blame game - it is old and boring as s--- 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I personally started smoking at 15 until I was 21. Then I joined the army so I quit over night for 4 years. Not once did I smoke or even crave when I traded smoking weed for exercising. After the army I smoked for another 4 years until I moved here so I don't smoke now. It's not addicting, however I can say that my memory was shit when I smoked lol.
