..so, in the latest issue of skunk there was a great story about what countries have the harshest laws when it comes to our favorite plant.. thought it was pretty interesting, and depressing at the same time, but figured i'd share for those who haven't seen the article..
1. japan.. .o1 g'a punishable by up to 5 years in prison, and hefty fines ranging into the 100's of thousands of $$$..
2... bulgeria.. simple possession will get you 1 to 6 years in prison, along with some fun fines that would probably take a lifetime to pay off..
3.. hong kong.. possession of any kind is punishable by up to 15 years in prison.. may as well change your name to something else, as your not gonna be going home for a long, long time here.. also penalties that run into the tens of thousands of dollars..
4.. saudia arabia.. really, no surprise here..i'm shocked its not much higher tbh.. possession of any amount will get you only six months of jail time in saudia, but i think i'll pass on that trip.. saudi's have also been known to give the death penalty to anyone that find dealing..
5.. signapore.. fun fun in the sun if you want to puff in signapore as simple possession here will get you a $20000 fine and up to 15 years in prison.. selling here is automatic death penalty as well, regardless of weight..
6.. tawain.. tawain has stricter penalties then its mother land of china proper, where simple possession will get you 3 years in prison...
7.. cyprus.. cyprus has a zero tolerance policy towards the ganja, and possession here will net you 8 years in prison.. here comes the good stuff.. if caught smoking weed in cyprus, you can end up in prison for the rest of your lifes boys and girls..
8.. indonesia.. sparking up in indonesia can land you behind bars from 10 to 20 years..
9.. phillipines..well, it seems that the phillipines are coming around to the 21st century a lil with their laxed laws on marijuana, and people found quilty of dealing in the island country will no longer be put to death, but rather spend the rest of their life behind bars.. i think that the death penalty would be less painful truth be told..
10... united arab emirates
and last but not least, and really no surprise from the horror stories that i've heard about the british couple getting arrested for simply kissing on a beach here.. penalties here are doled out for even trace amounts of any weed on your person.. if you happen to step in a pile of weed in and some sticks to your shoe, you could get the lovely penalty of a life of bondage..
so, that's the top ten worst countries to smoke or possess marijuana.. just think about this the next time some cop walks up to your car and wants to bust your balls for smelling weed and you think he's being a prick.. does really make you grateful for what we have, and escpecially those who are fortunate enough to live in a med state..
