Pesche Posted August 8, 2019 Share Posted August 8, 2019 This is again a paradox in the land of paradox! A total self-contradictory action when Cannabis oil becomes legal for medicinal purposes (see " Anutin distributes first batch of cannabis oil ") ! Even more contradictory when the PM announces that kratom leaves could be legalised in the future if they were proved to be useful. !! SAME DAY! Confiscating and USING the cannabis to produce oil for medicinal purpose would have been more clever (in my very humble opinion) It would have been much more a message against drug abuse to burn the millions of meth- ya bah- pills to make a clear statement, I think... BTW: what happened to these tons of meths and crystal after confiscation? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Place a huge fan 500m on the opposite side of the burn and wait for the smoke to waft your way. Police shouldn't object since you're creating good draft for the burning.

HerbalEd Posted August 18, 2019 Share Posted August 18, 2019 Yeah. That's great Thai logic. Legalize Cannabis and Kratom, and then burn hundreds-of-kilos of the stuff. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
