jpinx Posted January 13, 2016 Share Posted January 13, 2016 Good work in catching them, but the problem is that the penalties never fit the crime Not just in Thailand -- many places where a fine is imposed it is just paid for by another robbery,,,,, Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
banglassie Posted January 13, 2016 Share Posted January 13, 2016 Don't blame your stupidity on a plant. Kratom used to be a pass time thing for older people, or a pick-me-up at work quite similar to coffee... It's not the leaf that is the problem, it's the combination of all weird stuff they add to the drink + the fact that they are young and stupid...

If I'd shown my parents up like this there would have been hell to pay. Kids these days don't give a toss. No doubt their parents do either. It just perpetuates.

Ulic Posted January 13, 2016 Share Posted January 13, 2016 Good work by PoPo, as usual the crime is blamed on the daemon drink (and krantom). Now we will have to see what the Judicial system has in store for the perps. A 500 baht fine and a scolding just reinforces criminal behaviour. We will see what comes to pass.
