THAI-AUSSIE PRISONER SWOP
From todays Singapore Straits Times!
TWO Australian women sentenced to 50 years' imprisonment for drug trafficking were released from a Thai jail and they departed for Sydney yesterday under a prisoner exchange programme.
Jane McKenzie, 38, and Deborah Spinner, 36, were sentenced in 1997 for trying to smuggle 115g of heroin to Australia from Bangkok.
Lucky they weren't caught in LOF!

"I really don't care if someone dies from taking Extacy. Ex does not kill people, misuse of it does, just like misuse of alcohol."
Yet another crock of sh_t !
Try telling that to the parents of dozens of teenagers who have died after taking their first "E"
We in The UK are getting weekly reports of kids taking a tablet for the first time...... And dying.
Cannot remember the last time I heard of someone taking their first drink..... And dying !
Yes this is is a tough sentence..... Yes it is bad for the parents.... But to only give a one or two year sentence would only encourage others to take the risk.
Let em rot.

He either undertook a criminal act without understanding the risks and possible consequences or he did the math, took the odds and lost.
According to his father, the guy's mental level is that of a fourteen-year-old. So in other words, he's retarded. Gotta feel sorry for him.
By the way VJ, haven't been able to get on irc for days now, I think the tech peeps may have put up a new firewall or something.. can't get on the server.

The sentence is out of all proportion to the crime.
He is a small timer who would have made very little out of this venture.
The authorities in their hypocrisy love to make examples out of smucks like him while most of the big boys in the trade run amok thanks to endemic corruption in police and political circles.
He is guilty of being stupid and naive but 99 years is way over the odds.

If the guy has a mental level of a fourteen year old..... What the heck was he doing on his own in LOS ?
Even fourteen year olds know it is wrong... That's why they try to hide the drugs !
As I said before, give them one or two years and they will consider the risk to be small enough to take.
If this stops someone else concidering doing the same thing, then it is worth every day.
I've seen first hand what some of these drugs can do to people. Not just the people taking them but also the countless members of family drawn into the after effects.
The message has to get through.....

I actually liked the story of the other stupid guy. a 35 year old brit who was stopped for strolling around barechested. they found 9'000 X pills sewn in his sweat pants.
"Pity, didn't see much of the city yet" was his comment...

Me think many of you fall for sensational press reports that are driven by ultraconservative uneducated guys who just want to demonize things.
Yes, E can be very bad. Worse yet when considering that it is made illegally and without controls. When alcohol was illegalm it was very risky to drink bootleggers home made liquor. How would you feel if somebody handed you some homemade alcohol and told you to drink it.
My point is that yes E (MDMA) can be bad, but it is not as bad as it has been portrayed in the press. People do not die as frequently for just taking their first pill. When people do things they have no clue about and without precautions the risks are increased. Imagine a young teenager taking dad's car and getting in the highway, or going scuba diving for the first time with a bunch of friends who all have no clue. Yes, you could die. It is risky. If you do stupid things, you increase the risk of bad things happening to you.
If anyone is interested in how MDMA works and affects your brain, you could go and see this slideshow which is very informative (neither pro nor con, just informative) :
Your Brain On Ecstasy
One problem with E is how to inform and educate the stupid about something that is illegal? Some will argue that education amounts to promotion. Others will say that if you cannot contain it, at least reduce the risks by informing people about under what circumstances E can be really harmful.
The jury is still out in regards to neurotoxicity produced by E. How much damage is caused? at what levels?effects? etc. It seems likely that at high or very frequent doses, MDMA causes the degeneration of serotonin axons in humans as it does in animals. While there is no conclusive evidence, it is wise to be cautious.
