There's other drugs that make people want to go at it like bunnies, or even just hug, or contemplate the universe, and the gods within.

But of course, all demonized and criminalized, for hugging people to death.

We'd have less violence and drink driving if politics and the media followed the science and got behind several recreational drugs that never should have been banned. 

We owe our shriveled human experience in 2022 To moral panic by people who've never had a sublime altered experience in their sad grey psycopathic lives.

Their drug is power, and the world's a sorry mess because of it.  

d moral panic. Still rule supreme in our laws and politics.

Yeah it is interesting that drugs that were apparently deadly are now being used to treat for example war veterens for depression. That being said personally real life is better than drugs at the end of the day.

Take off all restrictions and let the natural progression of behavior develop... open all day and all night... bad behavior will level off...

Opening until 4am allows the RTP to collect more dues from foreigners after 1am or so ...  Can stop them on the streets in BKK for drug tests or searches.

Personally, 2am is better.  The girls are worth sh*t after leaving work at 2am ...

Close the bars and clubs altogether and eliminate these expectant or suspected results….   but oh wait…..that’s more time to spend in traffic where you risk death in the SECOND ranked country in the world for traffic fatalities.

I was sick of watching stupid drunk mouths on Phuket Island. That's why I moved to the north of the country

I remember being the only white face for 100 Km. Then the sexpats began arriving and causing chaos and pandemonium with locals. This is back when if you left a tip on the table the waitress would chase you down in the parking lot to return  the money you lost,...seriously that time existed once. I miss the old days.

They need to close the borders........and then round up selected undesirable foreign residents and escort 'em out.
