A friend of my parents went to Thailand to talk to Khun Sa .His name is Bo Gritz.He shot video of his meeting.Khun Sa allowed him to get to his compound.Bo is a highly decorated U.S. soldier.His reputation is what got him through Khun Sa's security.He told Khun SA the harm caused by his business.Khun Sa's accountant brought out the ledgers.Khun SA said I do business with the Americans at the Embassy.They pay me in gold.There is a reason he has survived as long as he has:Money and Power.He does for his people what the government never will.The Thai government built the all weather road right to his gate.

Bo is a great man. He went by himself up to ruby ridge when That shit show happened. When the us goverment shot amd killed randy weavers wife and son and wounded one of his friends. Bo got Randy to come down from ruby ridge and saved his friend who was seriously wounded. Imagine the hatred he felt toward the gov after killing his wife and son and would not come down off that mountain and was prepared to fight it out and die up there but had so much respect fo Bo that he came down peacefully off that mountain. What an amazing mam. Bo is. The gov really screwed up that whole ruby ridge incident and if it wasnt for bo it could of ended alot worse.

I have nothing but respect and admiration for every single person who has ever overcome the fiery trial which is opiate/opioid WDs. Presently I can't make it past the three day mark but I will get there in the end, by the grace of God. With that said, although that hole in the ground detox is terrifying to contemplate, what a blessing it is in disguise unto all who have no other choice but to enter therein because with the presence of choice and softer routes to getting clean, you might just end up like myself, having become pussified over the course of time from continually telling yourself things along these lines "I'll just have to remain on maintenance for the rest of my life. Other peope do, it's a perfectly ordinary.". Or "I will begin to reduce my dose, albeit in another year's time, when I'm feeling stronger and more stable.", Vain and presumptious thoughts are these, such which must be taken captive and purged along with the addiction because, in all likelihood, those who pursue these schools of thought, only become weaker and ever more dependent, multiplying the difficulty that will be required in order for them to get clean by factors which will only be revealed in due time. To all those who have had success getting clean using maintenance, congratulations to you and I hope and pray you'll never cease to take a single day clean for granted, not that you might not be tempted but so that you might not yield when you are. And if you pray, please pray for me, not that I would not become complacent with addiction/dependency and give up but that conviction would be present to help me pick myself back up off the floor and continue fighting the good fight when it happens.

You can do it, that is if you haven't already. I'm currently tapering off of methadone. Went from around 90mg in the beginning, to 45 for a while, and now I'm going down 5mg a week until l hit zero. Down to 20mg, so just 4 more weeks now. It hasn't been easy, but it hasn't been as bad as it could be. I'm sure it will suck once I hit 0mg, but the only thing you need to remember is that it will end sooner than you think if you just persevere, and just keep your eye on the prize. Btw, technically they say that I'm going down too quickly. Generally people will go down 2-3mg every couple of weeks, so I wouldn't advise tapering as quickly as I am unless you, like me, are really hard headed and you have alot of willpower. Also, don't use methadone unless you're an actual heroin addict. Methadone withdrawals last about 1 week- 3 months depending on how you go about it. 1 week if you taper, 3 months if you go cold turkey. I'll be keeping you in my thoughts and prayers as I battle through this myself.

But as I was saying coming of the drug is brutal but living without the drug is even more brutal because nearly every person in the world has issues and some has has more issues and problems than others that’s why they take the drug to forget there problems and when you come of the drug all your problems will come flooding back and you can imagine the strength off the opium or heroin the kids are taking in these poor country’s that the poppy is grown and the price they pay for it I wouldn’t blame the people from them poor war torn country’s from taking drugs just to forget the shitty hand they were dealt in life the D.E.A can kill or capture all these drug lords but drugs like heroin cocaine crystal meth weed and many other drugs are here to stay and worse it’s getting not better.

From around 1770 to 1820 sales of British, Dutch and American controlled opium in China had increased by 22,000%! Khun Sa's operation was actually quite small by comparison. He also had to deal with competition for the market from other drugs sources; cocaine, designer cocktails and crack (later replaced by crystal meth). Inspite of western rhetoric drug abuse is encouraged in western nations because it makes wealthy backers (where are those offshore trust funds going?) even wealthier.

You're right. That is a totally ridiculous concept. Handing over $50 million and destroying an illegal crop in its entirety is crazy. It makes way more sense to spend approx $144 billion/year financing a "war on drugs" where only a small percentage of said illegal crop is confiscated by the government and destroyed. The rest, of course, makes its way to a population of addicts to fuel plenty of crime, death, and suffering. But at least nobody is simply wasting money! :)

Owww damn doing a cluck in that hole... I've done 3 cold Turkey withdrawals and I don't think that would help

Think of the numbers of people involved in the drug trade and what would happen if the drugs suddenly dissapered. There would be millions of people out of work, the US imploys thousands of Police, prison guards, drug workers etc.

I would like to know more about Khun Sa.

This document was random on my recommendation KZread list and I just wanna know about drugs lord but turn out unexpected that’s Khun Sa, Va Dang, Lao Ta and Mong Thai are ppl I used to met when I was young and never knew their real name. Only knew they’re my mother’s friends since she’d was 8 years old and they’re like kindness uncle and always told me “My niece, promise me one thing Don’t touch any drugs when you’re grownup.” Now I understand and still hold on my promise with em

The lady at 13;04 was hilarious. They took away all our chickens and food so we give them opium too 😁😂🤣

Mhas' I suppose it dose sound strange to us but as well as their chickens & food they took away their men too & did you see the children being trained as soldiers ? Well they came from the hill people also.Their lives are in danger. Life is unbelievably difficult for the hill people they can't survive on growing anything else than opium. You can go there & visit the hill people in Thailand as a tourist . And if you ask them for some weed they'll tell you they can only sell you opium. ( Do not buy it though) It's a big culture shock for us westerners . And don't get me started on what is going on in the Red LLight districts.Sad is not the word.It's beyond sad !

She was referring to the Burmese military who came and stole everything including their men. She and her family then moved to the other side of the river and began supplying Khun Sa's people with opium. What else could they do to survive? This documentary is about people with lots of power and people with zero power.

​​@@AFaceintheCrowd01yes. in australia, double 0 globe is easily the most common. though users have dropped significantly since the 2000s so production has scaled back an diverted toward methamphetamine production. its only a matter of time before the heroin dries up and fentanyl takes its place, which will absolutely devastate this country. i also work with former opium farmers from Myanmar who've sought out asylum here.

Is methadone or suboxone available in this area that if someone wants to quit heroin, he cam get help through opiod?

totally agree!!

God, those bricks tho!!!! 🌋

I had never been exposed to Heroin, until rehab.

there is no such thing as a gateway drug it is merely a decision of the drug taker But if you were to choose which drug out of Alcohol & pot is more likely to be a gateway to heroin , then it is marijuana with out a doubt. Only because some pot dealers also sell Heroin , not because one innately leads to the other To say alcohol is ever a gateway to heroin literally makes zero logical sense, and is silly. so NO the real gateway drug is actually NOT alcohol.

Basically, the gateway drug is the easyest illegal drug to get. I say illegal because once you get in the habit of buying drugs off the black market, it's not such a big step to get a different one. But I met a guy who said that he tried heroin before he tried anything else. Because of where he lived, it was what was around, and he had never even heard of anything else until later. Once he heard of them, he used it, so in his case, heroin was the gateway drug. A lot of young folks world wide start with solvents: glue, lighter fluid, gasoline, oven cleaner, liquid paper. It would be hard to ban all that stuff. Basically, some people try drugs. Of those, some people, a minority, are inclined to become addicted to them. Of the latter group, they will tend to get hooked on whatever is around, including, yes, alcohol. So, the gateway drug theory has a grain of truth in it, trying one thing often leads to trying another. But it is flawed in the idea that getting rid of one drug will keep people from trying others.

i wonder if any of those child soldiers are still alive today. They would be about my age. Imagine being born into that. :(:(

love these drug war videos more effort they apply more lucrative it becomes itl never end unless they take a new approach even decriminalization on harder drugs wit better help for rehab instead of chasing their tails ( new druglord)

So I did a little research and he passed away about 10 years ago and about 2 years after this was made, I believe he had to relinquish his empire, but was able to live out his life through investments

Royal patronage....a wonderful thing!

It's a good one

You know that a car can run out of fuel, you also know a human can run out of life. And even though you (as a casual drug user) know much about drugs, you also know that you can die of a car accident.

this man lived the rest of his life facing zero penalty. yet we repetitively lock up users and low level dealers on a daily basis.

Truth is the truth, he spoke this truth......

The wife called yesterday actually, every time she does the first thing she asks is, "are you clean yet??!!!"
