    like one japanese girl keeps saying that even if you have like a tiny little speck of weed stuck to your shoe and they find it you get thrown in jail for 20 years or somethin

    although i would not call that girl a reliable source of information

    this happened, i dont recall the specifics beyond that it was a speck of pot on a dudes shoe, i think it was Thailand though

    according to their court of law, which is all that really matters in this case, you are correct

    my bad i thought we were stating opinions ITT

    You were, I was stating fact which tends to trump opinions in any meaningful context.

    naw, he wast just a drug smuggler, they aren't people

    sure they're people

    but they're law-breaking people

    breaking a law that gets you executed

    i am arguing that its bad to execute people for drug related offences

    yes he broke the law, but the punishment does not fit the crime

    From what I've read I think the feeling is that bringing heroin into the country is essentially killing the people end user of that supply, so you are a murderer for being a smuggler of dangerous goods. Not saying I agree, but I'm not in China.

    making a supply of drugs harder to get increases the likelihood of addicts who want that drug going to more lengths to get it

    this increases violent crime, probably deaths too

    Hey, take it up with the Chinese. I can see how someone would think either side is correct.

    At Singapore airport they have big signs saying "if you're bringing drugs into this country, get rid of them now because if we find them on you we're going to execute you by fucking your mouth"

    i remember reading something on a plane, i think singapore airlines, that said that the plane is treated sorta like their native land and if you cause violence or endanger people or somethin on a plane you can get life in prison

    it may have been more to do with terrorists trying to blow shit up but the way it was phrased seem to suggest you would go to jail if you got into a fight with another passenger

    Seems kind of pointless to punish someone with imprisonment or the death penalty when they are willing to blow themselves up.

    a few years ago some ordinary australian lady went to malaysia or somethin and they found a whole bunch of pot in her surfboard bag and she got thrown in jail
    and it was this massive thing in the news for a long time
    how the government was fighting it and the whole country supported her
    how someone must have slipped the drugs in her bag because she had no idea how they got there
    shes just some poor innocent girl from a lower middle class background or whatever
    such a tragedy


    and then a few months later in a country with similar laws, could have been the same country, a much hotter, richer girl who was a supermodel or something got arrested for drug possession because she had like 1 pill of somethin in her handbag

    no one gave a shit about her though
    media basically just kept calling her a liar whenever she did anything to try to defend herself

    "And Polymer Injection" makes it sound secondary, but really, most of what they do is inject polymer.

    I can still remember the outrage when that American kid got busted for spray painting graffiti in Singapore and the punishment was getting caned. I liked Singapore's response, which was basically showing signs that clearly indicate in multiple languages that if you deface public property, including spray painting graffiti, you will get your ass beaten with a bamboo stick. Signs that were in the area this douchebag spray painted in.

    We need more public beatings in this country to curb punk crime. Also, we should kill people who smuggle heroin, especially if they are fucking crazy people who smuggle heroin.

    It's wrong because you are saying that China is wrong by disagreeing, and they have professionals with education and experience in these matters, and you do not.

    I'm not saying I disagree with you, but given, if true, that outlook of the suppliers are killing the users by giving them access, and given that professional lawmakers from a different culture are saying it, your opinion is wrong when applied to the chinese government.

    Unless you are a Chinese lawyer and not telling us, then you might have a point.
