The old cop close to him is a farang? Great observations. By his wethered appearance he looks like he has indulged in a bit of the substance himself in his life. Did you notice the abrasions on the offenders arm? Was there a scuffle involved in the arrest? I guess the next few years will be cockraoches and rice for dinner. #228Posted 2010-05-06 14:13:41
I want to know what does this guy have to do about his visa if as stated The tourist, who is currently out on bail, is awaiting formal charges to be filed by the prosecutor, a process that can take up to 84 days and he was planning on only being here a month, so while on bail what happens about it ..colino Colino simple he will be fines for everyday he overstays his visa. #229Posted 2010-05-06 17:00:48

In many countries, marijuana has been decriminalized not only for medicinal purposes but simply because it should NOT share a place with truly dangerous substances such as meth (the very worst), as well as cocaine, opium and multiple pharmacological products. Liquor was legalized quite some time ago after the 'law-makers' had figured-out a profitable method to accomplish all of that. 'Weed' is purported to be the single, largest cash-crop in California which is, arguably, the largest, agrarian cultivator of fruit&produce in the entire US of A. Perhaps people in Thailand and elsewhere will someday be able to understand how to discriminate the huge differences found among illicit substances. Indeed, most of these things can be deeply injurious. But, when's the last time that any legislators witnessed the beneficial effects of marijuana unto cancer patients and to others with medical issues? Indeed, most USA MD's are paid to attend 5-Star events which are little more than drug promotions. A comment on the beneficial effects of marijuana: Had a brother in law who hung himself while full of the crap, did him a lot of good I'm quite sure he drug didn't bring the problems to him, he brought the drugs to him and his problems...i.e. most likely the drugs wasn't a factor in his suicide. His problem was that he was addicted to the Sh.t he was a good young fella till he started smoking it , worked for me for a time but the crap rotted his brain to the extent he didnt know what he was doing and was unemployable. Before the end he would wander around waving his arms and yelling, all he lived for was the drug and it was the only drug he took, not even booze. I have seen others whoes lives it has ruined as well so dont try to tell me its harmless or beneficial for I have first hand experience. I suspect those who say how wonderful it is are users if not addicts themselves, often addicts are the last to admit or even recognise they have a problem. #232Posted 2010-05-08 13:00:33
i suggest your learn a little about the substance before making such a stupid post! I suggest you learn something about the substance: George Washington, Thomas Jefferson and other founding fathers grew hemp. Jefferson smuggled hemp seeds from China to France then to America. For thousands of years, 90% of all ships' sails and rope were made from hemp. The word 'canvas' is Dutch for hemp; Webster's New World Dictionary. The first Bibles, maps, charts, Betsy Ross's flag, the first drafts of the Declaration of Independence and the Constitution were made from hemp - U.S. Government Archives. The first crop grown in many states was hemp. 1850 was a peak year for Kentucky producing 40,000 tons. Hemp was the largest cash crop until the 20th Century. n 1916, the U.S. Government predicted that by the 1940s all paper would come from hemp and that no more trees need to be cut down. Government studies report that 1 acre of hemp equals 4.1 acres of trees. Plans were in the works to implement such programs - Department of Agriculture. Mechanical Engineering Magazine (Feb. 1938) published an article entitled 'The Most Profitable and Desirable Crop that Can be Grown.' It stated that if hemp was cultivated using 20th Century technology, it would be the single largest agricultural crop in the U.S. and the rest of the world. The following information comes directly from the United States Department of Agriculture's 1942 14-minute film encouraging and instructing 'patriotic American farmers' to grow 350,000 acres of hemp each year for the war effort: '...(When) Grecian temples were new, hemp was already old in the service of mankind. For thousands of years, even then, this plant had been grown for cordage and cloth in China and elsewhere in the East. For centuries prior to about 1850, all the ships that sailed the western seas were rigged with hempen rope and sails. For the sailor, no less than the hangman, hemp was indispensable... ...Now with Philippine and East Indian sources of hemp in the hands of the Japanese...American hemp must meet the needs of our Army and Navy as well as of our industries... ...the Navy's rapidly dwindling reserves. When that is gone, American hemp will go on duty again; hemp for mooring ships; hemp for tow lines; hemp for tackle and gear; hemp for countless naval uses both on ship and shore. Just as in the days when Old Ironsides sailed the seas victorious with her hempen shrouds and hempen sails. Hemp for victory!' Certified proof from the Library of Congress; found by the research of Jack Herer, refuting claims of other government agencies that the 1942 USDA film 'Hemp for Victory' did not exist. 05/07/2010 Los Angeles law shows U.S. is trending toward drug liberalization 05/07/2010 Representative Ron Paul Celebrates 'Hemp History Week' in Congressional Record Statement 05/07/2010 Initiative would legalize marijuana in Detroit http://www.jackherer.com/ #233Posted 2010-05-08 13:01:23

I saw this happen and tried to help him but no way he would get off the crap so yes I know what caused it. #235Posted 2010-05-08 15:20:38
If police in Holland find 0.9 grams of herb in your pocket they will laugh and ask you if you need some more then at least then you can roll a decent joint... Nothing wrong with pot especially the Thai one However Herbal Beaver should be send home with a warning: 'we truly apologize for the caused inconvenience, but this is Thailand and, like America and many other countries we believe that councious people are a possible threat to the government, so we kindly request you to leave the country, thank you for your understanding' Taking this as a crime is rediculous ofcourse and boss in own brain ! I'm always amazed that pot heads think that ganga is not a drug and that they don't realize when they are addicted to it. I speak from personal experience as many friends of mine (mostly Americans) smoke it .As a non user I can tell you Ganga smokers are boring company and I am glad the drug is illegal. I don't think these pot heads realize that it is serious for them if they are caught in possesion of it in Thailand. There must be better ways to enjoy yourself in Thailand than turning yourself into a half wit by getting "stoned." land of the free.?????????????????????????? #236Posted 2010-05-08 16:05:44
You can not tar all substances with the same brush, for all of you drinkers & smokers out there its rather like saying Whiskey can be compared to larger shandy, and ultra light cigarettes can be compared to Marlboro super strength. Obviously the only comparison here is that they are both alcohol and cigarettes & the comparisons end there . . .

Cannabis Sativa is the weed people have traditionally used for smoking all around the world. Cannabis Indica is a variety originating in the Hindu Kush and is mainly used for making hashish. ( a 'hybrid' from crossing the two is used in hydroponic production) The name of the third variety escapes me but for this exercise lets call it Cannabis 'Hempus'...this is the variety that is cultivated for its fibres and turned into paper, cloth, rope etc. but however you need to smoke a 1 kilo joint of 'hempus' to get the slightest buzz. I have also been told that the hop (for beer) is a close relative. You might want to add Queen Victoria to your list. Apparently Sir Walter Raleigh? brought it back for her and she used it for period pain. Incidently the word 'assassin' comes from the Arabic 'hashashin' meaning 'hashish eaters' who were a group/tribe of hired killers who ate hashish before going on a job. I think I would probably be of no use as just keep giggling and falling off my camel 5555 #238Posted 2010-05-09 11:12:34

Which Sir Walter Raleigh are you talking about, the explorer or the poet? The explorer Raleigh was a friend of Elizabeth the 1st, at least for a while, he was the one that went a hunting around the world. Sir Walter Raleigh the poet did travel a few places but had no contact with Victoria the queen, only with the Queen Victoria pub. #240Posted 2010-05-09 11:49:51
I am Dutch, i have seen many people use weed. Almost none had problems, sure if you used it everyday it would influence you and make you passive. Recreational use is not much of a problem. People have to see the difference between addicts and people who use it occasionally. Similar to comparing someone who drinks alcohol and an alcoholic. We don't ban alcohol because there are some people who act badly on it. Truth be said there is far more aggression and other problems that come from alcohol then from a bit of weed. #241Posted 2010-05-10 10:50:12

I was thinking of going to chiang mai for a few months at the end of the year. Would arrests like this be unheard of up there? I enjoy smoking marijuana... I always assumed if I was caught I would be able to pay off someone.
#243Posted 2010-05-30 17:16:13
Marijuana has been cultivated in Thailand for hundreds of years, it was used as a herb and included in most dishes. Thailand made it illeagal after pressure from the USA, in the 1970s..The term is now well known in English largely due to the efforts of American drug prohibitionists during the 1920s and 1930s. The prohibitionists deliberately used a Mexican name for cannabis in order to turn the populace against the idea that it should be legal by playing to negative attitudes towards that nationality.

It is a common myth that the word assassin comes from the Arabic word haschishin for hashish user. Read more -> http://www.alamut.co.../etymolAss.html Sorry for the correction but I find the origin of words interesting. Too bad for the Aussie though, getting caught with Ganja, soon the world will accept Ganja as a legal drug. California amongst others are/have made it legal. I guess there will be more states, which I found out recently, allready have, and countries following that example. Have never myself responded well to Marijuana but I think if one should use drugs, alcohol is a drug too, Marijuana is a better choice. Doesn't make people violent what I've heard.

I suspect those who say how wonderful it is are users if not addicts themselves, often addicts are the last to admit or even recognise they have a problem. I'm sorry to hear about your brother in law. But are you sure it was Marijuana and not hashish he used? True it's stems from the same plant but hashish is the resin from the plant which have a much more powerfull effect on the brain. If you allready have problems, don't use any drug as it might enhance any type of emotional state, boredom and suicidedal thoughts. Allthough it's not common to become a murderer after using Marijuana, it's the wrong kind of high (low), it's probably not unheard of but very rare I would presume. I am truly sorry for the loss of your brother in law but stop blaming the symptoms, start caring about the reasons. I said it earlier in this thread I don't use Marijuana or any other drug myself, except alcohol, so please don't accuse me for being one of the drug addicts that try to excuse their choice of drugs. I'm not using anything except alcohol, period. Don't believe me? Well I live in Phuket and I'm very easy to get in touch with. Sorry, the rest has nothing to do with your post but I think it's in order to state a fact, just once, ok, I will probably do it more times as times go by. People always seem to want to punish, not seek understanding, information or facts. Judging people has almost become a mantra. #249Posted 2010-05-31 00:54:05
The fact is that possession of ganja or small quantities of yaba does not automically equal deportation and immigration blacklist. Depending on how much "bail" you can pay, you can have your case expeditiously closed in about 7-10 days with no record outside of the local district you were prosecuted in. Thank you, come again! If you doubt this, I suggest you take a peek at the Samui district court house which has clearly been subsidized by Full Moon Party busts. This is so I've heard anyway Why they not use the guy to catch the dealer, get the dealer behind bars, do some waterboarding to make him tell where he get the stuff from etc. This innocent guy could have helped them to roll up a whole gang (but guess that's not what they want either) #250Posted 2010-05-31 01:32:34
I think the biggest danger with pot smoking is that if done regularly it destroys your drive and ambition. Heavy Pot smokers by and large are underachievers. This can have serious consequences for life and career. The other issue of course is the smoking itself which is inhaled quite deeply and if using bongs leads to lots of chest infections and long term use to lung conditions like cancer and emphysema. Casual use is pretty harmless imho. As for the person caught well you should never let yourself be vulnerable in places like Thailand because there is always people willing to take advantage. Don't smoke pot in Thailand or take any drugs coz you never know what will happen. Having said that the laws are stupid but if you want to blame anyone blame the Americans for a lot of these draconian drug laws around the world because if you do a bit of research you will see it is US govt pressure that has changed many of trhe drug laws in countries like Thailand. emphysema is no fun; lung cancer has one of the lowest survival rate .Without going into the mental aspect of the effects, it is sad that lots of us have spent years in school studying natural science but nonetheless think nothing of inhaling very destructive smokes, tobacco , cannabis, fin (: opium) whatever . Many a man is more careful with what grade oil he feeds the engine of his car and the brand of the air filter than of the quality of what he drinks and what he breathes. If you smoke, whatever you smoke, learn about the way the lungs work , it will help you respect them. https://www.cancerpr...re.asp?CB=30277 |
